Thank you for your encouraging words, everyone. My last post was really negative probably because everyone is making me face what I don't want to hear even though it's true - that I'm just simply going to have to be strong and fight this thing.

I know that I want to fight it, and I know that it's potentially possible, it's just that the anxiety is crippling. These last few days I've been having racing thoughts and panic episode off an on.

I'm now taking everyone's suggestion about getting some counselling - I signed up for on-campus couselling last night. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to wait two weeks before I can start sessions, so I guess all I can do is wallow in my dread and self-pity.

It feels encouraging hearing about everyone's college experiences. But how did all of you England people end up there? Are you studying abroad? What's your majors? Should I have studied abroad?

Thanks again everyone for the kind words and support. I've really needed it this week.

Does anyone else have any tips for how I can start to experience life while struggling with IBS and IBS-related anxieties? Or, is this just something I'm not going to be able to accomplish at this point?
