      Yes!! That’s when I know it’s really bad anxiety, I immediately have to go to the bathroom. My best friend gets them too, and we both call them anxiety poops lol. You’re definitely not alone on that one!

      Yes! 100% I didn't know this was normal until I started dating my now husband. I always had to run to the bathroom when I got an anxiety attack and I was too embarrassed to ask anyone if they had the same problem. So know you are not alone!

      Oh absolutely. When my anxiety initially flared up when I was 6, it pretty much was all symptoms connected to my digestive system. I was in and out of doctors offices and hospitals for over a year, because they were trying to figure out why I had such horrible stomach issues. My teacher from the previous year approached my mom and told her she was positive it was all from anxiety, and she was absolutely right.

        @SarahMG I was diagnosed until 2017 when I seek a therapist I had horrible social anxiety I used to mask it with putting makeup worries ate me and then I seek a psychiatrist for medicine I guess I needed it because I had too much trauma in my life
