I don't like that you have to deal with it, but I'm so happy to know that I'm not the only one. IBS and Anxiety are feeding each other and making each other worse and it's so annoying.
Honestly I am really, really struggling with this right now. I can’t eat or drink when I’m out and about so I’ve started just staying in and I have plans of travelling abroad and for the first ever time I feel like I can’t do it. Even my safe spaces aren’t safe anymore, I had a panic and sickness session at the cinema, my boyfriends, places I never thought I would have been unwell in that way.
@@Matthew_Conners hi! Thankyou so much for this message, honestly it’s been TOUGH and sadly lost a lot of weight but this week has very much been an amazing week and very much feels the beginning of healing ✨🤍hope you are well , your message really made my week !
@@ellenflannery2763 Yeah I know that. Sometimes it there are tough moments and with stress my IBS gets worse. But it is so essential that we have good moments on which we can hold on to. I am happy for you that you had one of these and I hope you can hold on to it.
I came around your vídeo by chance and immediately I related so much to it. I've been dealing with anxiety for more than 10 years but never had this problem, until last year, and I had no idea it was related. Your video was a aha moment for me. You were describing exactly what I feel. Thank you, it was very helpful 🖤
You probably dont give a damn but does anybody know of a method to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my account password. I love any assistance you can offer me
I pretend that I have small cute wolf in my stomach that loves to growl😅 I pet my stomach and try to think positive about him. Our organs might not be doing great but they're doing their best. It may sounds stupid and childish, but it actually helps me accept the noises just being part of my me and my body.
I just experienced one earlier, I was overthinking then pain began in my stomach and fortunately it was just gas that passed through. But I was able to calm myself down and my gut went as normal.
hi! we're very similar in this way, i get terrible IBS flare ups that cause constant discomfort while in school/in social settings and i have no idea what to do about it. i've tried meds, i've tried trying to "breathe them away," etc. and i'm at a complete loss. is there anything that helps for you in situations like these?? :)
Hi Sophia I hope you are doing well. So same for me and what helps me the most is actually to be with people you like and you trust. For me that meant to hang around with my closest friend but also to inform teachers about my discomfort. Not having to hide anything and to be rather open or to accept your syndrome melted away a lot of the stress that came with it or that I made myself. I hope that helps. I wish you all the best
Promethazine is a good one as well. Zofran is only good for short term. I believe my doctor said that Promethazine is safer than Ondansetron (Zofran) when taking anti-depressants. Excessive amounts of Zofran with an Anti-Depressant can cause Serotonin Syndrome which can be fatal. Valium is also a Benzodiazepine, which like you said, is hard to come by and can end up causing tolerance and possible addiction/withdrawal. I have found that the safest one for me is the Antihistamines that also help with vomiting. This way I am sedated a bit, have an anti-nausea effect and can easily stop taking it whenever I want to without ill side effects such as withdrawal, dependency or increased anxiety. I was taking Hydroxyzine for anxiety but if you take too much of it, it can cause diarrhea which to me just continues my anxiety IBS cycle. Promethazine for sure! (I live in the US so im not sure how different medications are). A good doctor will not easily give out Benzodiazepines. One that can suggest something that can be used often and has no risk of addiction is a smart and considerate doctor. I had to ask so many times to get Ativan (in the same class) and ended up having the WORST time getting off of it. I am glad now that I realize how much that doctor didn't want to give me the prescription for Ativan. She wasn't your band-aid type doctor who just wants you to numb yourself to your everyday reality. IBS is a constant thing I live with, I can't rely on a pill that may make me feel way worse in the end! Even though I would have done anything to stop the fear and settle my stomach instantly. I now mostly use medical marijuana for multiple ailments and haven't felt this good in a long time! 2015 I was all pills, now I am just taking my Zoloft and occasionally Promethazine and Hydroxizine. And bud every day lol. Bud is most effective for me. better within like 10 minutes lol.

Definitely related to your struggle. I hate this feeling like it shouldn’t be this bad or am I making it worse.
