So I've struggled with anxiety for years. Symptoms tend to be clenching my jaw and trouble sleeping, rumination, all that jazz. I've been taking Zoloft since around February of 2020. I had a presentation for work today that was making me anxious, and on Monday I did a dry-run for feedback. I got so much feedback that I ended up vomiting from anxiety (super embarrassing - thankfully it was virtual and I was able to leave the meeting first). But I figured that's what it was and that's that.

I just finished giving the presentation, and now, AFTER it's all over, I'm feeling sick to my stomach again! I've even gagged a couple of times, even though the presentation went well. And I didn't have that as a physical symptom during the presentation, either.

I can handle and hide the trouble sleeping and other physical symptoms just fine, but how do people hide puking? And why is it only coming on after the presentation is over? Shouldn't I feel relieved instead?
