Vicky,
It's so hard to get focused on other projects when dealing with IBS. Between watching what we eat, monitoring how our tummy is feeling after we eat, and wondering when and if we will ever feel normal again, it's not surprising that days go by before we realize it.

I almost have to step aside from it mentally and get objective. Make a list if that is what works for you. Finding quiet time each day is a must for me. I like reading spiritual books, they are uplifting and absorb my mind thoroughly. Also a headset and a cd of music, something you enjoy is also good. I like a headset because outside distractions won't disturb me.
After just a few days of this, I found myself looking forward to this time so much.
Be nice to yourself by making you the priority and not the IBS.
Best wishes, Virag
