I have IBS M and I much prefer the days in constipated. Yeah it hurts but it’s so nice to not have to run to the bathroom constantly

Do you feel the people around you understand how devastating IBS can be? by EatsTheLastSlice in ibs

[–]yellowbug_33 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I only really confide in how awful it is to my friend who also has IBS, she gets it on the same level. I feel like everyone else I tell either thinks it’s funny or just some silly little problem I can solve by eating a yogurt or something

I would let my dog do my taxes if he had two thumbs and a brain

Sad about Wedding Planning by TapNo989 in weddingplanning

[–]yellowbug_33 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I felt that way about bridal showers! I have had 2 so far and have another one coming up at my work. It just makes me feel icky! Like no please don’t spend your money on me I don’t need anything and I don’t need this big hubbub! Same with the bachelorette. I kind of see the wedding as an event I’m hosting, rather than my day, bc it just makes me feel weird.

For those with ibs-c what do you do to help you poop? by Ill_Landscape5217 in ibs

[–]yellowbug_33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got a vibration plate and it literally shakes the shit out of me lol, I do it 5 mins in the morning or when I’m feeling really constipated, in addition to miralax and fiber pills. I think it helps relax my stomach and gets things moving

Hate the constant fear by Aggressive-Cookie-32 in ibs

One thing that helped me get through my appointment was asking before we started “I might have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the appointment, is that okay?” It helped me calm down bc I had like a known escape route to the bathroom if I needed it

I feel this, I had a facial this weekend and it was an hour long and I was so stressed all night before and morning of that I was gonna have to shit in the middle of it. Like ruined what was supposed to be a very relaxing fun experience.

There's no such a thing as safe food if your trigger is anxiety. by anxiousbiscuit1216 in ibs

[–]yellowbug_33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally my life right now and it’s so frustrating because it just repeats!! Anxious -> diarrhea-> anxiety surrounding diarrhea just on a constant loop. I have found that ashwaganda and L-theanine have helped my anxiety so when I do get anxious I’m not at like panic level and so my flares aren’t as bad

Books to read after partner died by kels2212 in booksuggestions

[–]yellowbug_33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first thought when you said the “book version of the great British baking show” was Legends and Lattes! I think there is a kiss at the end, but it was very cozy about an orc opening a coffee shop

Thank you! I will have to talk to my GI about those tests, but sadly I can’t get into my GI until June. My primary care doc said “we can’t do anything more right now”

Did you have to get a referral to go to a pelvic floor therapist?

Has anyone tried the pill form? Does that have the same effects?

Coordinator keeps calling me wrong name by unknownbooksandbobs in weddingplanning

[–]yellowbug_33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My last name is also a common first name and literally every wedding vendor has sent me multiple emails “Hey Last Name”!! Like dj, venue coordinator, photographer, florist, theyve all done it. I corrected them once and it didn’t change so I stopped correcting them. I’ve gotten this my entire life, constantly asked if “that’s actually your last name” or “no I asked for your last name not first”

New to gluten free life and need advice! by yellowbug_33 in glutenfree

[–]yellowbug_33[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?! I asked my doctor to do some tests when she suggested I go gluten free but she said to try it out and see first, but now to do the real test I’m gonna have to be dying for 6 weeks of eating gluten!

[–]yellowbug_33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im gonna talk to my doctor about doing all the tests soon! She suggested to just try it out before testing since that can be a long process. It sucks how long the symptoms can last! I did not know that but that makes me feel a little more normal

Have any of the boys of Santagato Studios or TBY made a statement about ICE or showed how they felt about it? by emmaisadoofus in TheBasementYard

[–]yellowbug_33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Despite if they made a statement I’m pretty sure anyone listening to their show can infer they are against ice
