Has anything like this happened to you before?

If not, the stomach knotting combined with the other symptoms suggests that you might have some sort of physical illness. I think that you need to see a doctor.

If the doctor says that you are physically OK but just stressed and depressed, I'll be glad to suggest some safe, inexpensive, and usually effective natural remedies that won't require a prescription.

yes for about a week after christmas and it might have happend before.

when i say notting i mean like really bad butterflies or a bit like hunger can affect u sometimes.

it has got better but its still there.

How much caffeine do you use?

When you had the stomach cramps, did you feel hot or cold?

i drink tea but not to exess. i dont remember i was about right i think perhaps a tad on the warm side (but that could be me remembering wrong)

Any chance of food poisoning?

no. its all psycological

If you are absolutely certain that it is psychological, I suggest that you try both of these:

1) Enough fish oil capsules to give you 1 gram of DHA (an essential fatty acid) per day. You can get them in any supermarket. Take them with meals to avoid an upset stomach. The amount of DHA in each capsule will be listed on the label, probably on a back panel. You will have to take several capsules per day to get that much DHA. DHA is an essential nutrient that is frequently deficient in the diets of everyone who does not eat a lot of fish. It is essential for proper brain function and a deficiency can cause depression.

2) Take one capsule of the following on an empty stomach as soon as you get up in the morning, and a second capsule on an empty stomach (fluids and sweets are OK but not a lot of protein) at night when you go to bed. If necessary, take a third cap in the mid afternoon:

5-HTP is the natural precursor to serotonin. This does not have the drawbacks of the SSRI psychiatric drugs. It is a natural substance made in your brain, but your brain may not be making enough.

These two nutrients work by totally different mechanisms, so both are better than one or the other.

Please let me know what happens. This combo works well for most people, but if it doesn't do the job for you, there are further alternatives. The DHA takes a couple of weeks to build up in the fat in your brain. The 5-HTP brings relief in less than an hour to some people, and within a week to most.

Thats how i feel most days lately too. >_<
Even the Drawing part, started more the one and never went around to finish em.

Give what I suggested above a try. It sure works for me, my partner, and several friends with similar problems.

Or i just see the doc and get professinal help. ;) (As i will on monday)

*Hugs tightly* You aren't alone....I've hit those pretty low moods as well. Really hope ya pull through this alright, *pat pats* your friends will always be here to give ya a listening ear.

Perhaps you could try some Relaxing Instrumental Music or Enjoy some Quiet Nature to help the Psychological Point.

Either way there are Relaxing Exercises out there that will work wonders.
