  • I think this is relatively normal for extreme anxiety. Maybe you just get some sort of nerves and this is your body's reaction?

    I get intense butterflies and almost like a stomachache when I get nerves of any kind, including driving up to places I am either slightly nervous about or very excited about. Even if there is no reason to have nerves or I'm not really that anxious, I still get it. I used to get it driving to school as well.

    I went through a really weird phase at around 20 when I was in a rocky relationship with both my family and my boyfriend at the time, as well as stressed about college and a bunch of huge changes going on in my life, where I would feel sick, like I was going to throw up, very easily and seemingly for no reason. It would happen in the car a lot, and I also couldn't eat anything but a very light salad without feeling that way. It passed as quickly as it came and I still have no idea what exactly caused it, besides maybe stress.
