Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | How are you today, Gigi?

Gigi,
How are you today? You shouldn't feel ashamed of yourself at all! I would definitely say that what you're facing IS one of those larger problems you mentioned! My heart goes out to you completely! It is very hard to stay positive, but keep working at it anyway. Little things can throw me out of balance and what you're going through certainly isn't little; so you are entitled to all the so called "whining" you want! (Although I'd call it talking about it and expressing your fears and emotions.) I can't understand everything about men either. My husband is one of the emotional ones, so I have to be the strong one. He's disabled so I'm not really comfortable talking to him about my problems. He can't handle it when I'm sick. He falls apart. I bet your husband is really worried about you and he's having a hard time dealing with it. Darn't though, I know what you mean about needing them and they're not there. When I was feeling weak and scared, I found this board. Wow, how wonderful. I could say whatever I wanted to, and everyone was so helpful. And, nobody got scared or scared me. No, they had helpful and uplifting advice that relieved my fears. There's nothing too little to talk about here, gigi. Try to concentrate on yourself right now, and baby yourself. Have you been able to talk to your husband about how you feel? Sometimes, that's so hard, because it can be a risk that can cause more frustration; right when you don't need it. I hope your day today is brighter. Wow, now everyone needs a friend that will clean our carpets? Does she need a Kansas girlfriend? Ha, ha. I know I couldn't be that lucky, too!
I'll be thinking of you, gigi,
Till next time,
Terri
