So I posted last week. Basically I was stressed about my bowel movements. You can read through my old posts if you want to hear about it.
So I ended up communicating with my doctor, and he left me a message to say he wasn't worried, and that he thinks all is ok.
I felt great! So relaxed after hearing this. I finally got a good nights sleep.
This was Saturday. On Sunday my anxiety came back!
And this morning I woke up at 330am, feeling nervous still fearing my bowel movements. My bowel movements were normal this am, but I still feel nervous!!
On the one hand, this is interesting because clearly there is more to my anxiety than what is on the surface (or in the toilet), but on the other hand it is discouraging because I thought speaking to the doctor would clear it out. It is still there, I am still obsessing over my bowel movements, and I am still stressed. Even after given the all clear!
