managing anxiety nausea
hello everyone 👋
i’ve struggled with nausea related to anxiety the entirety of my life. it was absolutely debilitating as a child, with it becoming easier to manage as an adult, but i still have phases where it’s crippling.
i take a stimulant for my ADHD and a beta blocker for occasional bouts of panic, but i’ve been sick with anxiety for about two weeks now, similar to when i was a child. i thought i was “past” this point in my life, and am struggling with having to deal with this again.
along with my medication, i use grounding techniques i’ve learned in therapy to try and relieve my body, but everything always manifests in my stomach - general nausea, shakiness, feeling clammy, occasional cramping too.
if anyone else deals with this, how do you manage? no matter how wild the hack, please share as i’m desperate for relief.. thank you to everyone who reads!
