Diarrhea refers to passing loose, watery stool frequently, which means three or more three times a day. It can be attended with pain or cramps in the stomach, urgency to pass stool and passing stool involuntarily (means without your own knowledge). Diarrhea can happen due to many reasons. You might have generally heard of the common causes, like stomach infection, food poisoning or some other gastric issue. What most of us don’t know is that anxiety (refers to state of fear, nervousness and worry) and stress too can lead to diarrhea. It is very common to have an upset stomach resulting from stress and anxiety. The turmoil going on in our mind due to stress and anxiety can affect our gut. Besides diarrhea, other symptoms of stress and anxiety include sadness, fear, irritability, tiredness, sleep issues, palpitations, restlessness and headache.

Causes Of Diarrhea From Anxiety And Stress

1. There is a relation between our brain and gastric system. This is known as the brain–gut axis. Our gastric system contains numerous nerve cells about 600 million that is why it is also referred as enteric nervous system or the second little brain. Several studies have suggested that the brain in skull constantly communicates with the gut brain. So any mood issue tends to have an effect on the gut and any gut problem does have an impact on the mood. When a person is anxious or stressed, brain signals and the hormones going in the gastric tract result in chemical imbalance hindering the digestive process. This can result in many gastric symptoms including diarrhea.

2. Our body’s fight or flight mechanism also plays a role. It refers to the reaction our body gives on recognising some threat or harm about to occur to the body. On perceiving a threat, a series of physical changes occur in the body like increased heart rate, high blood pressure and changes in digestion process (resulting in diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps). To be precise, the function of small intestine slows down and the motility of the large intestine increases which results in diarrhea.

3. Other reasons how stress and anxiety can cause diarrhea include increased blood flow to the affected muscle instead of the gastric system (blood flow is diverted from gastric organs to confront a crisis resulting from anxiety or stress), release of cortisol and adrenaline and change in gut bacteria with increase in number of unhealthy bacteria.

4. In a research, it has been found that persons having anxiety have increased amount of interleukin -1 beta that tends to affect the protective barrier of the intestine and result in pain and defective absorption of water and sodium from intestine. These can cause diarrhea.

5. There is a very well–known, quite common gastric issue related to anxiety and stress i.e. IBS – Irritable bowel syndrome. It is a disorder of the large intestine resulting in changes in bowel habit either diarrhea or constipation and in some cases alternation between the two; stomach cramps and bloating. It is well known that stress and anxiety could be potential triggers for IBS symptoms. In such cases, stress and anxiety act on nerves and make the gastric system hyperactive.

Homeopathic Management

Homeopathic medicines carry great scope to manage cases of diarrhea due to anxiety and stress. The use of these medicines is recommended in both acute as well as chronic cases. They can handle diarrhea that has occurred from acute episode of anxiety and stress as well as help gradually decrease the tendency to have diarrhea from chronic stress and anxiety. These are equally helpful in managing cases of IBS-related diarrhea. These medicines primarily focus on the psychological level to treat the root cause of anxiety and stress which is causing diarrhea. Once anxiety and stress go away, diarrhea itself gets better. The best part of using these medicines is that they are free from side effects as well as are not habit-forming. It is advised to get every case of diarrhea evaluated by a physician so that the cause behind this condition can be rightly diagnosed as it can arise from several causes, followed by its proper treatment. Self – medication should be avoided in any case.
