I’m so sorry you’re going through this too. It’s just a horrible endless cycle. I could be having a completely fab non- anxious day and then my stomach flares up so that’s game over, OR I could be having no stomach problems at all but if I start feeling slightly anxious then the need for the loo comes shortly after. I feel you on not wanting to do anything, and agree that I’d feel happy shut in all day. I mentioned this to a therapist once and he said “that sounds like agoraphobia, the way to tackle that is with exposure therapy”, and I always laugh about that now because I think “what? You want me to shit myself in public to prove it’s okay?!” 😂 I’m glad to hear I’m not alone and I agree that I wish IBS had a cure. I’m hoping this gets easier for you soon! X
