You are not alone. There are many people who are dealing with IBS, just like you. I for one have been dealing with IBS-D since my early 20's, (I'm 42 now), but feel I have had it since I was a kid.
My family didn't understand what I was dealing with. So I sat down and wrote a long, long letter and got information off the internet about IBS. After mailing the letter and they read it, they were so understanding about what I am going through.
Even my employer is sympathetic about my condition. I also married a wonderful man who is there through my good and bad times.
At time I still get down, but realize that I'm still living and capable of doing things, just have something that gets in the way once in awhile.
I think you should go to the support groups. I wish there was an IBs support group here in my town. There isn't one, so that is why I joined this site. A lot of nice friendly people to be there when you need someone to talk to.
We are here when ever you need us.
