Anxiety problems
Recently I’ve been going through a lot of anxiety lately because I’m having digestive issues which I won’t go into detail for privacy reasons ,
but this issue has caused me so much stress that i sometimes have the inability to eat and start to doubt myself, so I’m asking if anyone who’s on the spectrum can give me some advice on how to stop and control my anxiety please 🙏
and thank you for taking the time to read this thread.

Here are some tips to ease anxiety...
cut down on caffeine.
Practice doing things that spark your anxiety, practice makes perfect
Trust yourself again.. trust that you can return to doing things that anxiety trys to prevent you from doing.🌟
Great points, asher ❤️
I'd also say safe food is always better than no food! If there's even a single food for you that could spark some true interest or joy that won't be too too harsh on your tummy, I hope you know it's okay to be a bit repetitive, just get some nutrition in. Please take care and I'm so sorry you're feeling anxious, OP.
Hey, I hear you. Dealing with digestion issues while feeling anxious all the time can be really exhausting.
What you’re experiencing actually makes sense though, anxiety can really affect the stomach, and when your gut feels off, it can also make you feel more on edge. It kind of becomes a cycle.
You could try going a bit gentler on yourself for now simple foods, eating slowly, staying hydrated, and not forcing yourself to eat when you’re very tense.
Even small things like slow breathing or short walks can help calm both your mind and your stomach a bit.
And you don’t have to figure it all out at once. Just taking it step by step is enough. If it keeps bothering you a lot though, it might be worth checking in with a doctor just to be safe.
I’m here with you in this.
