Were you on antibiotics ?
Antibiotics kill off good bacteria too, without good bacteria in our guts we can become more anxious, but you can replace them by eating live natural yogurts with the added bacteria, or probiotic drinks and tablets too.

Hi, These anxious feelings are really awful, I wake up most mornings in a panic. The worst for me is the nausea and not being able to eat but I do know that it is my anxiety that is causing it. Trust your doctor and I am sure your doctor won't be sick of you. Mine is really understanding and will even come out to visit on my worst days. The CBT will be helpful, I had it about 6 years ago and it really helped me and I have been mostly anxiety free since then, it is just that I have had a lot of traumatic events in the past few months that it has come back. I have overcome it before so can do it again and so can you :hugs::hugs:
