I had an anxiety last May because of my mother in law. Worse until i couldn’t move. It took me 3 months to be able to function again normally. Then suddenly, i had a fight with my mother in law because she doesn’t listen to me when it comes to my daughter. As she said she is older and i dont know anything, so i should listen to her.
Now, i am experiencing hunger pangs and it worst like i feel i am going to pass out. I dunno what to do, i dont want to be back like last time. I want this feeling go away. 
i need to fight this and be strong for my daughter.
Anyone can help how to lessen this symptoms for hunger pangs acid reflux?

Hey @n.ayeshaf,
Hope that you had the chance to catch up with your family doctor? When you mention the hunger pangs and that dizzy, about-to-faint feeling, that’s often how the body reacts when the stress system kicks in too fast. The stomach tightens, acid builds, sugar drops, it feels like danger, even when you’re just standing still.
It also shows how much you’ve already fought to get better, and how afraid you are of slipping again. For now, try small steps to remind your body it’s safe: sip warm water, breathe slow through your nose, press a palm on your chest till your heartbeat eases. You may want to eat light, but often, even plain bread helps the acid settle.
And about your mother-in-law, it’s okay that this makes you angry and scared. Your body is reacting to being overruled, not just the words. When you have more strength, maybe think about how you can hold your say as a mother without fighting, just stating calmly what your child needs.
if your body keeps shaking or you feel faint again, please see a GP, or call 1771 for someone to walk you through it. I want you to know that you’re not back where you were, you’re noticing it earlier this time and that’s already strength.

Hello, I am worried like what if I fainted and me and my daughter only alone at home. 
I am worried for my daughter.
Hello @n.ayeshaf thank you for sharing this with us. It sounds like what you went through last May was really difficult . Feeling so anxious that you couldn’t move shows how strong your body’s reaction was, and it completely makes sense that it took time to recover. Your body and mind were trying to protect and reset themselves.
It also sounds very draining to have that conflict with your mother-in-law, especially when it’s about your daughter. As a mother, it’s natural to want to have your choices respected, and it can be frustrating and hurtful when someone dismisses that. The fact that you’re still trying to stay strong and focus on your daughter despite all this really shows how much you love and care for her. That strength is something to be proud of.
About the hunger pangs and acid reflux. Those symptoms can definitely get worse with stress or anxiety. It would be good to see a doctor so they can check what’s going on and give you treatment or medication if needed. In the meantime, you could try eating smaller, lighter meals more often, avoiding spicy or oily food, and staying hydrated. Breathing exercises or calming activities before meals might also help reduce the intensity of the symptoms.
For the anxiety itself, talking to a therapist or counselor could really help you manage these feelings and prevent things from getting as bad as last time. You don’t have to go through this alone, and reaching out for support shows just how strong and caring you are. Not just for yourself, but for your daughter too.
