Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to anxiety.
Diarrhea is one of the common symptoms of anxiety.
I would recommend using over the counter option like Imodium.
I also recommend using daily probiotics.
For the anxiety, you can use medication for temporary relief such as Lorazepam.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
