Social Life
Hello All.
I was wondering how IBS affects your social life. Mine is practically non-existent. When I get invited somewhere I don't think "wow it sounds good" I think "Oh God, what if I have an attack?!" I find it easier just to say no. I do go out from time to time but it takes a lot of work. Furthermore, if I go somewhere that doesn't have a decent, fairly private bathroom then I get nervous. Oh the joys of having IBS!

Hello Illria
I have never been on holiday, i need to stay at home all the time . I do however play games online which is my social life. It has been like this for several years. I do understand and feel the same. It is a nightmare living day to day not know what kind of day it will be . I even stopped smoking in hope that would help me , but sadly not all.
I love coffee but now i drink decaff , I listen to enigma , that sometimes helps me be calmer and i try and tell myself that i am in control of my body, not my body in control of me :(

Hello!
I take probiotics. Florastor works REALLY well. Have you tired that? Also, diet is important. Look up the Paleo Diet, it really is an amazing diet. Lots of info on Google and around here as well. Feel better! Glad you are on this site!
