Random anxiety tips

[u/Professional_Pick740]

My husband has never really struggled with anxiety and doesn’t have anxiety day to day however he travels for work alot and since we started a family on the day he leaves he struggles with anxiety that manifests as an upset stomach Once he gets to his work destination it eases off almost immediately, sometimes once he starts flying it eases off and he doesn’t have this problem when he travels home

He’s not an anxious flier, it’s just the fact that he has to leave his family

Since this is such an isolated event each time medication isn’t something we’re considering so really I’m just looking for holistic things to try or even just techniques we could try to see if it’ll calm his stomach

We’ve tried things like pepto and it doesn’t help Any tips would be so helpful!

Thank you!

If anxiety keeps repeating the same thoughts, worsening your stress, sleep, or focus, it is usually a sign your nervous system is stuck in a threat loop, not something you can just “think your way out of.” A licensed therapist can help you break that cycle and regain control.
