Hello Anna,
There IS a relationship between gut and depression and anxiety.
I wont spend the time here about telling you what I sent thru, but I will share things that you might want to consider that did help me.
1) SD Sympathetic Dominance. It can trigger your symptoms.
2) Vagus nerve exercises. Look online. Gargling, singing and humming are excellent. There are many others.
3) Good farm milk yogurt. Painted Sisters is good. 7 g’s of sugar or find the Too Good brand.
4) Walk with smooth jazz for about 30 minutes to start, walk up to an hour.
Be mindful of the beauty around you.
Or get a small rebounder in Amazon. I have one called one step.
5) Be good to yourself. Look for the book SWITCH ON YIUR BRAIN EVERY
DAY. Caroline Leaf is excellent. Watch her on youtube.
6) Mindful of self talk. Look at TELLING YOURSELF THE TRUTH Marie Chapian.
7) Eat clean. All natural foods.
8) Listen to inspirational podcasts.
9)Get into a women's book club or have a womens game night
10) Consider an endoscopy ultrasound.
11) Vit D abd ir 20 minutes sunshine every day
12) consider redlight therapy… if your place has a Planet Fitness see if they offer FULL BODY RL there. Well worth your health and the upgraded membership.
Blessings to you, Anna!
🌺🌷❤️

@ebtexas55 Hi there,
Thank you so much for taking the time to write all of that — it truly means a lot. You sound like such a wise and grounded person, and I really appreciate how thoughtful your advice is.

I’m trying hard not to give up, even though some days it honestly feels really difficult. I don’t want to play the victim or let my anxiety win — I just want to keep learning, healing, and finding a bit of peace again.

I’ll definitely look into the things you mentioned — especially the vagus nerve exercises, the walking, and the books. I’ve already started making small changes in my routine, and reading supportive messages like yours gives me hope that I’m not completely lost in this.

Thank you again for sharing your experience and your kindness. People like you make these spaces feel a little less lonely. Sending you love and blessings💜
