While anxiety disorder has its root in the brain and mental processes, the symptoms appear throughout the body. One such symptom is chronic indigestion, which would include gas, cramping, stomach aches, bloating, and constipation or diarrhea. This indigestion could be labeled as irritable bowel syndrome or IBS. IBS does not always come linked with or caused by an anxiety disorder. However, they frequently do appear together, and often end up making each other worse. Our digestive tracks are extremely sensitive when it comes to any psychological stress, and dealing with persistent chronic digestion problems can amplify social discomfort and make a person feel more anxiety.
