Might i not even know if i am stressed? could i not feel stressed, but the stress somehow manifest itself in significant gi issues?

Possibly: If you are extremely disconnected from your emotional life, you may not be aware of when you're emotionally uncomfortable or distressed. Your body will try to help you discharge this any way it can. Physical symptoms can result. If you're having "significant GI issues, " it's worth visiting your doctor for an evaluation. Perhaps you may have food sensitivities or other things going on also.
