Conversion reactions: One of humans ways of dealing with anxiety and stress is to convert the mental symptoms to physical manifestations. Terrible abdominal pain, however, is not likely to be related to depression or anxiety alone and would definitely see a doctor to have this problem appropriately diagnosed and treated.
