For the last four months, I’ve been throwing up most days of the week, usually in the evenings and sometimes in the mornings after eating. I’ve been on and off antacids for the last couple of months, and I recently got an endoscopy done three days ago. Everything came back completely normal. no acidity, no mucus, nothing abnormal. My doctor told me I need to manage my stress. I am honestly shocked to find out that nothing is wrong with me physically and I did not anticipate that being stressed can cause me this much pain physically. I’m shocked.

I started doing breathwork and pranayama over the last two days. Sometimes I’m completely fine for a few days and don’t throw up at all. When I take Domstal, it usually helps, but on other days the vomiting comes back.

The last year has been very stressful. I was unemployed for almost 10 months, and towards the end of it I was extremely anxious. My husband was also going through a difficult phase, so the past few months have been emotionally heavy overall. I started a new in-office role in March, and while I’m grateful for it, I feel constantly exhausted and stressed. By the time I get home, cooking and managing daily life feels overwhelming, however I do manage everything. I puke even though I try to eat healthy, balanced meals and avoid greasy food.

I do smoke in the evenings, and my husband thinks that may be contributing to the vomiting. I’m honestly not sure anymore.

What’s been worrying me more lately is how emotionally reactive I’ve become. Even small arguments or upsetting conversations make me feel shaky, extremely anxious, and emotionally dysregulated. It takes me almost a full night’s sleep to feel normal again, and even then I keep replaying things in my head for hours.

I’m considering therapy, but I wanted to ask — has anyone else gone through something similar? Stress showing up physically like this? Constant nausea, vomiting, anxiety, emotional overwhelm? What helped you? Right now I just feel very alone in this experience.
