I have been doing quite well for a few weeks now. I follow most of Heather's diet, listen to the hypnotherapy cd's, take acacia and calcium carbonate and most days only have 3 bm's in the morning before school (I'm a teacher). Then I have days like today, 7 urgent bm's starting about 12 noon, the last one I only just made it so I had to leave school and come home. I normally take immodium and lomotil every morning but for the last 3 days I haven't - I think I was using it as an emotional crutch so I very bravely (only you will know what I mean) went to school without it. I have felt pretty anxious each day but I made it. Then today!!! Yesterday I didn't eat anything very different except I had 2 pumpkin scones and a slice of Heather's zucchini loaf with a little bit of low fat butter spread (I can tolerate a very small amount of dairy). Maybe it was the fat? Maybe it was...? I am tired of trying to work out what triggers this, I think I have the answer and then it happens again for no reason that I can see. Its this unpredictability that really gets me down and makes me anxious. At the moment I feel like resigning, curling up in a ball and never leaving the house again. I'll pick myself up and go to school tomorrow but each time this happens the part of me that feels joy diminishes. Does this happen to anybody else and how do you cope?
