I'm really feeling bummed. My small handful of closest friends and family don't want to hear about my bowel problems and why I can't join them to indulge in specific foods nor eat at certain restaurants that do not offer foods that are 'safe' for IBS.
I feel so abandoned and so very lonely. I just can't eat what other people eat and their comments depress me, as if I've got a screw loose in my head. IBS is a REAL condition and not fun at all!
If I were to tell all of these people off, I would not have any 'friends' at all! What does one do???
Some days I would rather die than put up with these people and live alone and lonely forever. Even my pastor nor his wife offers any understanding nor compassion.
I can only do what I do on any given day, and that can vary based on symtoms and needs.

Does anyone besides me feel isolated and lonely with IBS-D???
