    Why do i panic ???? constipation

    am always constipated and just go the loo every other day but every time i eat i feel my bowels totally moving and then i get a feeling like its stuck just above my pubic bone and it wont budge anyway i woke this morning still with some constipation pains but hungry so had a bowl of porridge and was feeling full soon as i started to eat it and i just ignored this as i no its just constipation anyway i started feeling my bowels moving (this is how i describe it) and then i needed the loo so i went the toilet which was hard a little straining (sorry) but my problem is i go into total panic mode and i don't no why ?? i then managed to go the loo a second time which was a bit softer... but my stomach still feels that uncomfortable pregnant feeling like i could still go but i just can't go !! how can i still be constipated if i have been twice today ?? my main pains are all just above my belly button and down left side i havent stopped panicking all morning and this started at 6am please any help & advice if any one also panics????
    i have just been my docs who said its just ibs & anxiety ???
    but i feel like my bodys are heavy all around my belly button / hips & above pubic bone and just like my bowels are shaking ??
    also got bad head ache
    cant eat as i have that sickly anxious feeling and still feel full anyway but hungry ??

    Hiya, i have all the same probs with my ibs and just lately it has been really bad. I started having branflakes in the morning as well as my fiber-gels at night and only eating grannary bread, for days i was still really constipated which i found hard to understand as usually the fibre-gels alone help. Well yesterday i had the complete opposite i went to the loo (no 2s) 7 times and each time still felt like i hadn't emptied properly, and by 8 this morning had been twice, my tummy still feels tight and sicky and bloated even after all that, unfortunately its just the way ibs is. I think mine has been worst as i have been feeling more anxious, but i know it will settle down. yours will too when you anxiety is under control xx
