Why when you're nervous does your "stomach go in knots"?!


Question:

Why when you're nervous does your "stomach go in knots"?

What is it about the stomach?


Answers:

Trust me,it's a normal occurrence. Some people claim that when they are nervous or depressed, they tend to eat more. However, normally,if a person is nervous or depressed,the appetite would be decreased ! If your " stomach is in knots", how can a person eat??? Knots in the stomach,regardless of the effect on appetite, can be associated with being nervous or anxious,and, is perfectly normal ! It is related to the sympathetic nervous system ( part of the CNS- Central Nervous System) and, is a spontaneous occurrence. But, when it occurs, we don't like it!! So,just relax( easier said than done),there are some things that we have no control over. I hope that this helps.
