Yes, absolutely. It's very depressing to be struck down with a debilitating illness that not only makes you feel physically awful but also one that isolates you from friends and family during episodes. It's so hard to feel you're missing out on life. You begin to feel trapped and like life is passing you by. I grew to hate my bedroom so much that I hardly wanted to sleep in there even when I was feeling fine. This is why you really need a good support system of people surrounding you whether in real life or online.

CVS is heavily linked to depression and anxiety disorders. Whether it is a symptom of CVS or a trigger is debatable.

Cyclic vomiting can very much cause depression. It's easy to let it all overwhelm you. But it's important to stay positive and keep swimming. Things can and will get better.

Yes, it can cause depression, if you not have working treatment it is so painful and you cannot have a normal life that depression can follow. If you can control the symptoms of nausea, vomiting and pain you don´t get depression. And acceptance of friends and family that this is a real and horrible illness is very important to avaoid depression

Depression and anxiety is a big thing with CVS sufferers. The illness is so consuming that you feel totally alone. Support groups for CVS sufferers are a great help.
