Anxiety and POTS

Dealing with the new diagnosis of Postural Orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and how it coincides with my anxiety and makes my symptoms worse.

I don’t know how to cope with a new condition like this as I just got to a good place with my anxiety with ibs and now I have to go okay I’m having a pots episode how I do cope without triggering an ibs flare alongside it. #PosturalOrthostaticTachycardiaSyndrome #IrritableBowelSyndromeIBS #Anxiety

Body issues

I feel isolated.I am 22 years old and I dont know how to get past this because i feel like i cant relate to anyone. Ive been living with tinnitus since 13 and recently got stomach issues. (probably IBS since all tests were normal). I always struggled with self-image since I have pectus excavatum and my ears developed strangely. I know it might sound funny since there are much worse things happening but all of the things combined got me feeling really anxious.

I wanted to throw this out, trying to find someone who is struggling with similar if not same issues.
