I have had the same exact thing. I'm in high school and all I think about all day is hoping for someone to make noise or hoping the classroom isn't quite. That's the only thing I think about the whole day and it's been happing for over a year now. Glad to know someone else has this problem and I'm not the only one out there.

Damn, dont let this get to you see a doctor, get some tests, if nothing comes back you will just have to deal with it. Find a career where you are comfortable. How about working from home?

Glad to hear a lot of people having the same issue as me !!
I have found one thing that often helps during these quiet situations, particularly taking tests at school: Try listening to music through an earphone during the test or class. Although some teachers may not approve (although many actually do not care), it is very easy to hide! Just make sure to only use 1 earphone, and do not make it too loud so others can hear. Listening to music will make the situation seem less quiet, reducing the anxiety! and also, when your stomach does in fact make a noise, you may not even be able to hear it through the music playing! When you cannot hear your stomach, and cannot tell when it actually makes a noise or not, it certainly reduces the anxiety.
Hope this helps!!

I have the same problem! It's really hard to sit through some of my classes now, I'm pretty sure its just my anxiety that's causing it, but the only thing that I'm anxious about it my stomach noises. It's kind of a never ending cyle that i don't know how to fix. I've been to the doctors and ive been given some peptac liquid to try to help with the stomache acid. It's taken over my life, i don't feel safe in school now ( and ia know that sounds like I'm overreacting but i honestly have a phobia of my stomach making noises in class). They honestly sound like whale calls. It's now affecting my physical health as I've been retching and shaking every morning, i was vomiting last week before school. Now it's worse than it's ever been and i was sticking my fingers down my throat this morning to try to make myself sick so i didn't have to go to school, it didn't work and i ended up having what felt like a panic attack before maths class. I've told my parents about it and they just tell me to "stop thinking about it" and that "everone goes through it". Im now scared to tell them about other stuff that's going on in my life because I'm scared of how they'll react ( I've been self harming and thinking of suicide) . I was so relieved to find that other people have the same thing, one of the solutions that ive used to get through to the school year is eating in between classes, i have like 10 granola bars in my bag every day.

Hey Guys! I've also battled with this thing. I've figured out a couple of things that make my stomach growl:
Not eating enough and getting hungry- you feel this. It's a nauseating feeling and comes in cycles within your stomach
eating way to much- causes gas
Coffee- it's a diuretic that results in gas, acidity and and fast moving digestible system
Fruit- causes gas
NB- taking a sh*t 1-2 hours before doing something (unless you sh*t in the morning.) when you empty your intestines, when they fill back up with food, it sometimes can get noisy.
My trick is to eat small meals all through the day :)
Also: fart when you need to! Storing gas makes your stomach super noisy as the gas bubbles through your intestines.

i know exactly how all of you feel. i wish there was a quick solution for this. i'm only 16 and a sophomore in high school. i've noticed that this only happens to me when i'm in school. i love going to class when we have partner work or get to do an activity that gets us moving. if i just sit in the classroom and it's completely silent my stomach will go out of control. i would take having hunger growls any day over the noises my stomach makes. my parents think it's not a big deal and that every body's stomach makes noises but i know that's not completely true. it's such a hard feeling to describe. when i get nervous i have a terrible felling of diarrhea in my stomach and obviously i can't go to the bathroom every single time that this happens because it happens every 5 minutes. it feels like gas but i can't let it out because i'm surrounded my people in complete silence. it will make this obnoxiously loud noise that sounds like a fart but only my stomach is making these noises. i'm scared everytime we take tests or do silent work. i wish that i could be homeschooled. i've already switched schools because of this. nothing helps this problem. i have a fear of silence in school

Hi
I also suffer from this it's a real pain in the ass and I feel like I can't accomplish anything with this. When I am put in a quite room to take a test I feel like I can't do it I can't be in that room. In that very moment I want to cry and just run out of that room. I've been to the doctor and they just said that it's digestion but it can't be because it's non stop and I don't hear other people's stomach making this noise. My stomach growling is nonstop I've tried everything like changing up my diet. No dairy no junk food and now fiber but it's not working. I feel like it's getting in the way of my life. I can't concentrate on my classes I'm making poor grades and I'm missing allying school. I talked about this with my mom but she just said that it's normal and to try eating granola bars. I feel like most people don't think this is a real problem but it is for me. I can't be in a quite situation I just can't! I've tried everything more water, exercising, laxative, probiotics but nothing is helping its really hard to live like this it embarrassing I can't deal with being in school. Please I need advice!! I feel like very little people go through this. Good luck to those that are suffering from this.

Hi,
I'm also 14 and I also have exams buts it tomorrow so I'm very scared. I've been to the doctor and I've have blood work and bowel test and X-rays but they said that I'm normal. But I feel scarred and I know this is not normal I've tried everything but nothing seems to be working my best advice to u is that u should just go to your counselor and say that u might have anxiety and that maybe u can test in a separate room away from everyone else. This worked for me but my mom told me that I can't be doing this all the time. But then again she doesn't think anything is wrong with me.I hope that this helped and good luck on your exams.

I have the same problem, my stomach always makes noises and I don't know what to do. I get so embarrassed when I'm in lesson and in quite areas. I get really tense and sweaty and sometimes stop swallowing and breathing so when I need to swallow, I pretend I'm looking for a pen in my pencil case or pretend to look through my textbook and bag which would make noises so that no one can hear. I've had this for around 2 years now and I don't know what's wrong with me but it wasn't before last year this year it's out of control. I can't even put headphones in because I feel like my stomach is making sounds and people can hear me swallow. I'm not sure if this is anxiety or ibs? I have exams in 2 weeks and I'm so scared how do I stop it please someone help me.

Well my problems just started this here.. my 9th grade year of high school. My classes were very quiet so when my stomach would start making noises I would quickly start making loud noises and stuff. Since this problem started happening I started having super bad anxiety about going to school and I had panic attacks and it was terrible. As of today I couldn't take it anymore. I quit going to school and was switched to home bound. Although no one ever heard my body make weird and embarrassing noises I just stopped going to prevent it. I still have to meet with a teacher after school and can't seem to go there either it's super embarrassing.. I'm going to a gastroenterologist and maybe he can find out what's wrong. This was the worst year of my life and all I can think about is my stomach making noises while I'm in a quiet place. If anyone knows what is wrong please help me I've already went to 2 doctors and they have no clue.

I HAD THIS ISSUE ALL THROUGH HIGHSCHOOL AND FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE.
Its NOT your stomach its your DIGESTION. I would avoid eating because if I ate I would get loud growls but if I didnt eat I would get loud hunger growls.
I discovered that Im lactose intolerant and once i cut out dairy the growling has stopped.
YOU MIGHT BE LACTOSE INTOLERANT. If it isnt dairy try cutting out things from your diet and see what works.

Cut dairy from your diet. It worked for me. If that doesn't work try cutting out other things (ex: gluten)
