Suggest Treatment For Bloating And Acidity

I pas gas when I'm nervous due to fight-or-flight in my body.
What are my options to stop feeling bloated and passing gas when I'm nervous? This isn't a problem from eating, this only happens when I'm near people.
I have tons of anxiety and it's hurting my social life.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.

Since you know that you are nervous and have a lot of anxiety particularly on going with the people, the cause is certain.

Get a consultation of a Psychiatrist to get a proper clinical evaluation of your problems and get started on a proper medications for anxiety.
You can also try other forms like Meditation, yoga, being with like minded people to get a proper social mixing and get accustomed with the social norms to get you the confidence which in itself is a part of the treatment.,
