So many different things - namely diabetes, anal/rectal cancer, colon cancer, brain tumor, and breast cancer.

Is it possible that anxiety can lead to IBS? Every so often, sometimes when I am really stressed and anxious, I get stomach issues. The last couple of weeks I have been more stressed than usual and that has made my anxiety the worst it’s been in a while. I’ve had a lot of gas, stomach pain, and I haven’t been able to go to the bathroom very often. As soon as I was able to go the bloating decreased a lot, but I still feel very gassy and have a stomachache after eating. Could this be caused by IBS or is it something else entirely?

I’ve been on Paroxetine for ~8 years now. It has definitely helped me a lot and I would probably be a complete mess if I hadn’t started taking medication for my anxiety. But I absolutely hate how it makes me feel if I forget to take it for even one day because it only has a 24 hour half-life. Nausea, dizziness, brain zaps, crying at the drop of a hat, it sucks. I really want to start weaning off of it so I can try something else that doesn’t have as many side effects, but I am nervous about the withdrawal process. Has anyone else weaned off of Paxil/Paroxetine, and if so what was your experience like?

hey everyone! i’m pretty sure i’ve had anxiety my whole life - i was always a very nervous and anxious kid, worrying about things that most kids don’t even think about - as well as OCD. but it really only became a hindrance on my daily life about nine years ago now. my sister fell down the stairs and had a traumatic brain injury and ended up being in the hospital in a medically induced coma for four days. after that, i could barely function, so i started going to therapy and they diagnosed me with GAD and OCD. i am currently on 15mg of Paroxetine and it helps a lot. a majority of my anxiety is health related, probably because i spent a good amount of the first 10 years of my life in and out of the hospital for surgeries. i have convinced myself of having a myriad of different things - diabetes, breast cancer, an un-ruptured aneurysm, colon cancer, just to name a few. it feels silly looking back and typing all of this out, but one of my biggest fears is getting sick and dying. i figured being able to write things out and have somewhere to vent and talk to others who are going through similar things would be good for me.

Okay so, about a week or so ago my boyfriend and I were fooling around and he started grinding on my butt. We both had clothing on - he had compression shorts on and I had underwear and shorts on. I’ve been scouring the internet like crazy and I am getting conflicting answers as to whether or not that kind of thing (dry humping I guess you could call it) can get you pregnant. Second thing: I am due to get my period within a day and this morning I had dark red/brown spotting in my underwear. This is fairly normal for me before my period actually starts, but it is still worrying me a lot. Third, I have been really stressed lately, not really eating or sleeping as well as I should. All of this is just adding to it 😔 My worries basically stem from the fact that I am scared of being pregnant (terrified in fact, I am in no place to be having a kid right now) and I am worried about the spotting. Could I actually be pregnant from the dry humping OR could all of this be coming from my acute stress and anxiety?
