Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic and thanks for the query.
There are other differential diagnoses to this problem like constipation, colon infection (colitis). However, the common problem is acid peptic disease and it worth require a trial of medicine to block acid in stomach. Asthma or depression are an unlikely possibility in this.
Take care.
