IBS and related anxiety are getting me down, not sleeping so tired all the time and subsequent regular headaches.
Just wondered if anyone had any advice?

I've realised recently that I only get night-time IBS symptoms (in combination with sleeplessness and anxiety) at certain times of my menstrual cycle, that is in the middle or towards the end of the second half. (I never made the link before because the IBS side of it seemed to be predominant, that is I thought the gurgling and cramping was waking me up or keeping me awake). Of course the anxiety is also a problem during daytime during those days. I'm much calmer and more stress resilient during the first half of my cycle.

I have EXACTLY the same experience as Susaloh and have found that Yoga has had a fantastic positive effect on my anxiety and irritable symptoms. Meditation too is really calming.
