...when I really stuck to the diet and did my SFS and everything...and I'm A with D attacks not C! There is no such thing as a quick fix and you're just shooting yourself in the foot expecting there to be one.

...that alot of the questions being asked get answered by old hands such as Casey and myslef who are NOT C. I've got enough to do w/out there being an extra board so you'd lose feedback.
And the basics of the diet hold true for pretty much everyone with IBS.

I used to be a chronic D, believe it or not, and have been able to offer advice/tips to D folks based on past experience.

As far as I'm concerned, there is no becoming stable. I've had this horrid condition for nearly a year now and have tried all sorts of things with little relief. I'm just waiting now for this to drive me to the point where I kill myself to escape the pain.

That only death will release me from this pain. I believe in a Heaven where my body will feel no pain, and I will be healed.
Are you taking an Anti-Depressant? I started Prozac about a month ago to help with the negative thoughts.

I have been there too. I know exactly how you feel and believe me it will pass. I have had IBS, probably all my life, but only seriously for the last 7 yrs. I have had horrible downs and incredible highs but it seems to change and never balances out. I have found that many of the suggestions on this board are helpful and changing my diet did a lot for me, but remember this IBS is incurable.
I have not figured out yet if this is a genetic problem or is it an environmental problem??? IBS is such a crude and harsh disease that it is not talked about. In my own opinion I think it is a combination of both, genetic and environmental. Does anyone know more???
I hope you better days and wish for you to have peace of mind, through the Creator may your days be better.
Blessings and sunshine to all, Lummibeader

I'm not currently taking any anti-depressants. I just haven't been doing well at all lately. I've eaten hardly anything and have had trouble sleeping for the past 3 days now. My whole body just feels like its shutting down both mentally and physically.
