My best job when my D was controlling my life was filing. If you know the alphabet, you can file. I was alone all day in a dark filing room and knew what I had to do for hte day. No one was looking for me, and I could jump into the bathroom if I needed to. It really got my courage up in order to try to apply to jobs where I'd have to deal with the public.
But living on imodium isn't that bad, though. It goes to quality of life, and being able to give you the freedom to work, get money and be happy. Don't think of yourself of being tied to pills, and please don't judge yourself by "normal" people's standards.
It's not heroin. Think of it this way, you put on clothes, right? You wouldn't go out naked, right? Imodium just lets you go out the same, and protects you from food like your clothes protect you from the weather.
OK, maybe not like that. I've used up all my metaphors, evidently.
But you'll get into a routine, and you'll be able to predict your stomach's behavior better. Listen to your body, and don't hold off medication. You'll feel better.
I'm sending you good thoughts, and hoping you get a good job you like!!
