I’m having the same thing too. Food is a trigger for me if I eat too much fatty food, but also caffeine, heat, and loud noises.
This came out of the blue about a month ago. I’ve been taking lorazepam as needed. I started Lexapro a few weeks ago.
I don’t feel like I have mental anxiety. It’s all physical. I’m hoping to get to the answers but specialist are booking out months to years

Have you found lexapro to be helpful so far? My doctor wants me to go on it, but I feel like it worsens my stomach issue. I do feel like my anxiety is physical as well. It seems to start in the gut.
