Me personally? I think this whole "IBS is stress related" is a bunch of BS.
It is very convenient for MDs and other people who fail to to do their jobs and make us feel better to blame it on some vague term like "stress." See, blaming it on stress does none of us any good. WHat is stress? How do you know what stress is?
I do not work as a NY stock broker, so could I have stress?
To me, it is the sign of utter incompetence because stress is something which can't really be measured or quantified, it's just an excuse for the MD to get off the hook or for peers/family to blame YOU for your IBS.
Unlike dairy, you can't avoid stress because stuff isn't labled as stress.
That said, I am curious HEather/others...just how well does hypno work? I see it labled here are a cure, ok, well then why aren't more people/board memebers cured if it works so well?
