Hello,
Your symptoms suggest a gut- ppbrain axis disorder, where anxiety and overthinking worsen gastrointestinal symptoms like gastritis, bloating, constipation, and indigestion. Since all tests are normal and only antral gastritis is seen, this is usually functional, not dangerous. Anxiety can increase stomach acid, gut sensitivity, and bowel irregularity, which in turn further increases anxiety- creating a cycle.
