What Causes Retching Every Time After Eating?

Hi, I am a college student (20 years old), and I have recently started having problems with dry-heaving or retching after I eat. This has gone on for several weeks. When it happens, I need to stop what I m doing and calm myself by sitting and taking deep breaths until it passes. I m wondering if you can tell me what are possible causes of this, or if I should be concerned about it. Thank you!

It seems to me more like a functional disorder related in young ages with stress most of the time (I don't know if this is your case). Anywhere you can try on with prochinetics like Domperidone 10 mg for ten days three times a day 30 min before eating. In case, don't hesitate to write me back for the result.
