Hi getfunky,

Sorry to hear you are going through such rough times :( Did you get any treatment for depression? If you are on any antidepressant medication, the first thing you should check with your doctor is whether there is a possibility that the medication is causing the tension of abdominal muscles, because this tension is usually what lies behind stomach tension and that unpleasant gut feeling.

However, there is also a second important thing to take into account: anxiety does very often cause involuntary muscle tension; for some people it’s the tension of vocal chords so their voice changes, while for others, it’s the stomach muscles that tense up. This obviously means that as soon as the anxiety subsides, the abdominal pulsations will disappear as well.
