Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!)

Vent away... we know how you feel. I *definitely* know how you feel, all too well. I spent a couple months eating nothing but chicken, pasta, broth, and saltines, because those were the only things that never seemed to trigger attacks. I spent so many mealtimes crying on my boyfriend's shoulder, telling him that this is no way to live and that I was just not going to eat anymore, and let myself starve to death.

Needless to say, I didn't starve to death... things did get better... it just took a long, long time. I still have bad days, but not nearly as many as I used to.

Hang in there! If you can, try to look back over the last few weeks and see any improvements, no matter how small. You were able to be stable for almost a month? Don't lose hope because you're not stable now; keep reminding yourself that you did it once and you WILL do it again! Sometimes these stupid attacks are so random... it could have nothing to do with anything you ate at all. Just hang in there - things will get better!
