That reaction to your eating is the last thing an IBS'er needs! Do you have Heathers book? If so, give it to your Mom and have her read it, even if it is just the section for friends and family.
It is a sorry response to your problem and sorry to say a common one. However, her behavior does not have to affect your behavior. Just calmly give her the book with the section marked and walk away. If she chooses to read it and responds to you in a more intelligent way...great. If she doesn't read it or poo-poo's the information...then great too as you have done all that you can do. Let it be and focus on your issues not hers.
Your response to being afraid of foods is normal too...in my book anyway. If you have IBS-D like we do, I think that it is our job to become vigilant about what we eat so that we can stay healthy for ourselves and others, just keep up the good work and as you get more confident about what works and what doesn't you will notice your choices growing.
