Is constipation a symptom of stress?

Stress can affect how the digestive system functions, so yes, people can get constipated when they’re anxious about something, like a life change or a problem at home or something.

Thx..well not only my digestive system is being affected..I’m having massive head aches, mood swings, constipation, lose of apetite, Diziness, depression and lack of sleep..etc. What do u think I should do?! Don’t tell me to stop stressing! Cuz that won’t help

Yes, because it causes the acids in your stomach to break down food faster; there are many chemicals excreted in your brain so your body works harder to cope with the with stress, also depending on the eating habit, verses fluid intake, for me when I’m stressed I tend to eat less, and drink more which will definitely make it worse. There are many factors to consider, but don’t worry too much about it, eat more protein
