Naturapanic … first young brother, I am sorry your having such a rough time. It really is not easy.
I would put my arms around you and hug you if I could … just to lift some of your load.
Yes, I've recovered from ibs … just like I recovered from being a drug addict.
I stay away from those things, and practices that would halt both of my "recoveries". Both are still ongoing recoveries and will be forever.
Learn to live with that.
But what are the choices … I could be sitting on a toilet for 16 hours, or waking up in an emergency room with a heart out of rhythm, or getting stitches because I thought I was superman … again.
My ibs and yours … and my drug recovery are livable if managed correctly.
Yup… Good and bad days all the time.
And yes, I am a senior (broken and beaten up a bit), but when my grandchildren come over I can run and play with them … get down on the floor with them, throw snowballs, or ride a horse without messing my pants… or worry about scaring them because my brains are frying.
Have you really been taking care of yourself? Physically and mentally…
Ask yourself that question.
Set down in your most comfortable chair and ask that question again. And again…
Make notes … make a plan. Make it better…
It's your life and no one else is responsible.
Time to take control and make it better.
Easy … it never will be. But worth it forever though..
How? Listen to Heather and others here and practice what they teach.
Is it going to happen over night … no.
5 years… no.
Recovery is on going … it's forever.
Time to start.
