@tonim- Good morning and I also welcome you to Mayo Clinic Connect. Sometimes when I worry I don't think that I'm anxious and my husband will look me straight in the eyes and ask what's wrong. I also bet that with your husband being high strung that will affect you too! I don't think that there are many people who are as cool as cucumbers right now. The COVID-19 death rate at half-million people, self isolations, quarantines, rules that some people follow, and others who don't make for a distrustful world right now.

Yesterday I noticed that my husband had really started to seem like he was exaggerating certain things that I felt were ridiculous. I was annoyed and concerned at the same time. I brought it up and he was incensed for just a bit. He said that he had been feeling really cooped up. I finally told him to get out because he was driving me insane or to get a job. I told him that if he took off for a few hours it would do us both good.

Can you tell your husband that you need downtime, away from him, away from everyone?

Your lower digestive problems seem like they need an expert's attention. Your diarrhea could be from being anxious but 2 weeks is too long to wait for a doctor's opinion. Have you made an appointment?
