So I've finally noticed an almost direct correlation between an emotional upset and an IBS attack. Usually, it takes about 12-15 hours before symptoms show up, but it has consistently happened the last three times I got really upset and cried.

I now understand the role of emotional stress and IBS, thanks to Syl and Shawneric. My question is this: what are good medications to help me stop being so reactive in a stressful situation? I feel like my emotions simmer right below the surface and it doesn't take much to set them off. I am working on reigning that in, but now that I see the direct affect on my IBS, I am hoping to find a short term way to keep my emotional state more steady. Thoughts?
