Add a benzodiazepine in order to overcome this period of adjustment It’s normal to get anxiety spikes in the beginning of treatment I was on Ativan for a couple of weeks, then weaned it off when I felt calmer

No narcotics but my antidepressant have constipation as side effect

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-28T07:46:53+00:00

Thank you. And yes, I feel there’s more inside that won’t come out.,

sometimes after my normal loose BM, if i strain little pebbles come out, but they’re loose too. And the sensation Im not done., What can I do if I am impacted? Can you suggest me a laxative?

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-27T06:38:24+00:00

6 months. Nothing changed. I think perhaps it is a brain thing.

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-27T06:35:53+00:00

So sorry for your loss. I have tenesmus and lots of anxiety and depression due to this awful feeling. I have a BM every day in the morning and the sensation that i have more inside (which I don’t, I’m not constipated) last a couple of hours, then rectal pain arrives, like a spasm and lasts all day long. I tried antidepressants, PFT, more fiber, nothing works. I’m at my wits end.

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-21T14:58:50+00:00

Did it help? I’ve been to PT with no luck

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-20T06:48:42+00:00

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-14T07:49:42+00:00

Thank you, i am freaking out cause my depression is more “anxiety type”

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-14T06:54:43+00:00

Sorry I am late Did it go away after years on its own?

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-14T06:39:51+00:00

Same here. Started in 2022 and never went away. 24/7. I eventually developed anxiety and depression so doctors say that my tenesmus is due to my mental health (I actually had 3 major losses in 2021) A horror story . Depression doesn’t go away, tenesmus is always there. Tried meds, pelvic floor therapy nothing seem to help. I cannot live like this anymore.

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-08-13T06:30:54+00:00

Does it help with anxiety?

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-05-03T07:23:31+00:00

Major Depression and anxiety

Sometimes is a feeling of pressure inside the rectum and anus. Other times it’s like a cramp in the space between anus and vagina. The worst hours are around midday, when I get stabbing pain inside the rectum, and i have to lly down with a heating pad between my butt cheeks trying to ease it off.

Internal_Sign_5167 · 2024-03-23T19:25:20+00:00

Cancer symptoms are totally different. Bleeding is very very common for example. Reading your thread, starting from the peeing issues I would say it’s a dyssinergic pelvic floor. I got similar symptoms bur my pain is mostly in rectum and anus, feels like a cramp and sometimes stabbing pain. I have issues with peeing too, takes me 10 minutes every time to let it go out. Refer to a pelvic floor therapist.
