Anxiety: You indicated that your anxiety is higher than normal , given that you feel fine and your only symptom is diarrhea, there is nothing to worry about.

Continue to monitor: With hormonal shifts occurring during menstruation, often there can be concurrent diarrhea. Many factors also impact anxiety. These symptoms can be normal. I recommend continuing to monitor your symptoms, drink plenty of water, maintain good nutrition & consider daily multivitamin. Hopefully, when your period is over, you'll feel better. If symptoms worsen or fail to improve, seek medical care.
