When roommates amplify each other's stress-related digestive problems

My college roommates and I are all dealing with stress-related stomach issues during finals season and we keep commiserating about it but also competing about who has it worse. The stress in our apartment is palpable and I think we're actually making each other's symptoms worse by constantly talking about how awful we feel.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Collective stress becomes collective symptoms in a feedback loop that no one knows how to interrupt.
