In reply to Re: vomiting as anxiety symptom, posted by babs on October 8, 2002, at 21:52:42
I think there are plenty of schoolchildren and adults who have morning anxiety that shows itself as nausea, stomach-ache and even vomiting. I've always felt anxiety primarily in my stomach. In fact my viscera generally act like a barometer of my mental well-being. I read somewhere once that we vomit if we're running away to rid ourselves of the need to digest, so all the activity can go somewhere else, like the muscles and brain. But this has never made sense to me. There's the slight complication of feeling so awful you can't even move. Nice to hear from you
