Scared of Anger

Hello-

Hope all had a nice holiday. I had a scary experience over the last day, and am wondering how extreme it should be considered. I woke up from sleep last night with some very bad "night pains". Everytime I tried to sit up, I almost blacked out. Eventually I got myself back into bed, but the next morning I woke up with a very strange headache that was not touched by advil. I have gone through all the procedures to ensure it's only IBS I have even though I have read that night pains are not frequently associated with IBS.

I went into work the next day and couldn't find a parking space in front of my building. I just snapped for no apparent reason. I mean, how big of a deal is it to not find a parking spot? I managed to break the lever in my car that controls the turn signals and headlights. I'm still in shock. I don't know what caused this. I've read previously that anger is a part of IBS-D, of which I'm alternating between that and C.

I'm on a medication, and am calling my doctor tomorrow, but I'm honestly scared about this. There was no surrounding stress leading up to that time, (I woke up happy other than the headache) and yet it happened. I know the drills to calm myself (breathing, music, etc) but I had no time to think about those before I lost it.

Anything will help, be it advice, or just comfort.

Very nervous-
