why is the stomach so tied to our emotions?

239 viewsBiologyOther

I have all sorts of stomach issues and it’s come down to some sort of gastrointestinal functional disorder. I recall to all originally started after I first ever had an anxiety attack. Also when I get super nervous or stressed I start physically feeling unwell. I also can’t eat in a high emotional state without feeling nauseous.
