My personal theory...

I have been watching this board for sometime. Around 6 months now, I have come to the conclusion, that most people spend their day trying to cure their reflux. And many seem to know the cause of their reflux, yet find it very hard to cure.

That is a fact.

These are also FACTS...

People on this board suffering from reflux have had one or more of the following problems:

A) Anxiety
B) A very poor diet
C) High stress levels
D) Binge alcohol drinking
E) Illegal drug taking (ecstacy, cocaine) which normal is linked to pattern changes with the mind, and also anxiety connections.
F) Depression

I have not reported anyone, who has SUDDENLY got reflux, without any previous problems, like the ones I mentioned above.

These are the FACTS.

I suffered from anxiety for a long period of this year, and also depression. I am only 19, and have been through alot of stuff that I wouldn't thought would happen to me. I smoked (tobacco), drank alot at weekends (binging), had a poor diet, and on the odd occasion took illegal drugs when partying with friends. This had led to anxiety, and acid reflux.

I don't know how to fix this yet; I have fluttering in the stomach whenever I think about having anxiety, or stuff in the past. Or relations to drink, drugs, or smoking. It all makes my stomach flutter physically!

I created this thread to see how many others have some of the problems I mentioned from A - F that use this thread. It is time to be honest and think deeply into what caused this reflux. Then you can only start to combat it. I have had a healthy diet for around 2-3 weeks, of no smoking, drinking etc. It hasn't made much of a difference, but little is a lot. I eat vegetables, fruit, green tea, manuka honey, ACV, and all other things that said will help. None with any amazing curing abilities.

What do you guys think of the A - F theory? Do you guys think the same? That it is connected from other problems you might have? If so, what do you think your problems are?

Wink Re: This thread sets the FACTS...

I'm fairly knowledgeable about acid reflux and A-E are clearly known instigators of acid reflux. F I've never heard of, I wasn't really depressed until after I had bad acid reflux for years.

My acid reflux came about as a result of singing... anyone else have this problem?

Re: This thread sets the FACTS...

I have had major depression for years. No doubt.

However, everywhere I read says Acid Reflux is caused by a mechanical problem with a valve in the stomach.

Re: This thread sets the FACTS...

I've had some of those a year or so after acid reflux (A, C), but they weren't causes.
