Anxious 😦

Hi , I’m a 52 year old who loves to cook and enjoy life ! I’m married and have 4 children and 4 grandchildren! Yes a young grandma ...

I’ve been suffering from depression for a long time and had overcome it was doing so well but now am suffering Anxiety ! I hope I can can overcome this and learn how to be normal again ...ok do recently I have had anxiety and feeling sick ! I have back pain like electric feelings and not so sure what they are ? Anyone with that same problem? I’ve had a CT scan done and I have degenerative discs . But last night I’ve felt breathless and today feeling winded in the stomach! Anyone out there had this feeling?

Yes, young granny. My depression/anxiety affected my stomach, abdomen and lower back. Mental illness makes you physically ill too. I felt sick, unable to eat much at a time and had both constipation and diarrhoea problems one after the other. Most likely, your ailments are also caused by your mental condition. It's a vicious circle because one causes the other and then the other causes more of the anxiety. Do have your physical symptoms checked out all the same.That should ease your mind.xx.
