We all know stress can impact digestion, but what about anger, or feeling embarrassed. This week's episode is a little different, a run through common negative emotions and how they might be interacting with your IBS.

• How do fear, anger, shame and low mood affect IBS?
• What is alexithymia and how could it affect IBS?
• Support for dealing with difficult emotions

Sending you support if this episode feels relevant to you. :)
