Shame about IBS-c

Recommended Posts

Hi

I am new to this group.  I have been dealing with ibs-c since I was 16 and am 62. I didn't realize what I had but I suffered with hard stools and I was ridiculed for not being "normal."

Hi Sinclair,

That's really awful that you have been ridiculed for so long. Are you managing things any better now or still struggling?

I’m new to this group too but have had IBS-c for 22 years. I go to a therapist who uses EMDR meaning eye movement desensitizing reprocessing. Look it up and see what you think. It helps my mental thinking. 
I invited my boyfriend for Christmas at my family’s. We flew in and got a rental car. On the way I said pullover I can’t hold it. Lucky I had a long coat on so the busy area couldn’t see my problem. But when we got to our destination my boyfriend said “you’ve got some poop on your coat”.  Well we’ve been married 31 good years. Ya just never know. There are people who won’t tease you. I got teased in high school too.
