About To Give It All Up

I'm sick and tired of this.
I deprive myself of my favorite foods, milk, dairy, pizza, fries, and for what?

To go through a cycle of feeling good, feeling average, feeling like garbage irregardless of what I ingest in my body.

I've dieted.
Here's my diet.

I workout at the gym.

I take Benefiber, I even switched to the generic brand once Benefiber changed ingredients.
I take Acidophillus.
I take Glutamine.
I take Miralax.
I tried Lorazapam.
I tried Rifaxmin.

I have aspergers.
I need medication to help with anxiety, yet it seems EVERYONE I take gives me the same reaction as McDonalds would:
Trapped Gas, Bloating, C, and D.

I was feeling less anxious on Luvox.
So I went up to 100mg from 50mg.
All of the sudden in the last month I begin having more trapped gas, bloating, c, and d.

So it seems hopeless.
I try everything the doctor's and book say.

I try dieting.
I try supplements.
I try lifestyle changes and medications.

Nothing consistantly works, and I've been trying this for 1.5 years.

I can tolerate NOT eating foods I want.
I can tolerate limiting myself socially by not partying, drinking, and having to embarass myself asking when eating out to have ingedients skipped.
I can tolerate the time consuming nature of dieting, making extra meals, no fast food when I need quick meals, researching ingredients.
I can....WHEN I get results.

But if all this is going to do is give me MIXED results, nothing substanial, consistent, just a tease.
If when I try and treat myself for mental health problems, this is what I get:
Trapped gas, bloating, c, and d.
Then why bother?
Why should I be denied McDonald's?

It's obviously not working and it obviously is not food related.

Dr.s keep telling me it's not food related, that I bacterial overgrowth.
Alright, so I take Rifaxmin, Miralax, NOTHING.
I take acidophillus.
NOTHING.

I take SSRI's to help reduce anxiety, since I have strees, NOTHING.

Why the heck can't they help allieve something as concreate as BACTERIAL OVERGROWTH?
Why should we go to these measures and time consuming extent for crummy results?
