Hi @evie777, Since you mentioned starting a new job on Monday, I wonder if it may be making you a bit more anxious than usual. I know I was always a little anxious when starting a new job. Here's some suggestions from the article I linked a few posts above yours.

"Because of the strong link that BFS has to stress and anxiety, it is important for people diagnosed with the condition to try to reduce their daily stress and anxiety.
A person can help reduce anxiety by:
-- meditating, practicing yoga, or listening to calming music
-- spending time with a pet, which has been shown to reduce stress, fear, and anxiety
-- eating a balanced diet rich in whole foods and nutrients
-- eating probiotics, which can be found in foods such as sauerkraut, kimchi, yogurt, miso, and kefir"
