I have been struggling with anxiety nausea for a little over a month now. I’ve had it in the past but it was manageable and only happened when I was falling asleep at night. Now it can happen at any point in the day, and it’s worse in the evenings. I know it isn’t actual nausea because I can sometimes distract myself and it usually fades out at work, but hits really hard when I’m winding down for bed or as soon as I get off work. I’ve also never actually thrown up, though it feels so bad I sit near the toilet until the early AM at least once a week. A couple nights ago I tried Gravol but it didn’t do anything except make me pass out will I felt sick. It’s gotten so bad I haven’t been able to do anything but go to work and hangout with my boyfriend, and it’s terrible even then. My appetite is gone and I have to force myself to eat in the afternoon and the evenings, often overthinking whether I’m even hungry or not. I can’t see friends or go shopping, sometimes walks and drives help but the nausea returns as soon as it ends. I’ve been prescribed Lexapro, but the knowledge that it might make me even more nauseous is worsening the anxiety and I haven’t started it yet. I’m seeing another doctor tomorrow to help me find a better medication. I’m looking for tips and ideas to make it not as bad, I’m open for anything at this point. It’s making me more depressed and it’s worsening my mental health because it feels like nothing works.
