A member asked:

I have horrible depression and anxiety and now it has caused me physical problems like ibs. will controlling depression/anxiety help relieve my ibs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: As far as i know, the exact cause of ibs is unknown, although there are many contributing factors such as faulty communication between the brain and intestines, genetics, hormones, and stress. Reducing stress, regardless of the source, in conjunction with diet modifications, can only help.
