mine all started with stress and a stomach ulcer from taking too many painkillers for my migraines when I was in college....mostly my initial cause is stress and anxiety and I have never gotten better since the ulcer.
but I agree there is not common thread, because so many of these people have had it since they were children, and most children don't have too much stress or anxiety.
However, i was an anxious child, who often threw tantrums and had colic as a baby, and do remember being constipated quite a bit when i was younger. But always ate everything including brussel sprouts, milk, I was person who would try anything and never have any problems for most of my life, and always ate really healthy, whole wheat, balanced diet, etc. But now I am IBS-D, mostly stress related.
so maybe it is in us when we are born, and then just eventually comes out when something traumatic happens, who knows. no easy answer.
