My stomach hurts so much, I hate being alive

My IBS is flaring up again. I was doing so good for over a month but now the pain is back, every time I eat or go to the bathroom it triggers intense nausea and abdominal cramping. I don't understand how any human being is supposed to accept living like this... could anyone give me kind messages of sympathy or encouragement? It feels like you folks are the only ones that understand and really take my pain seriously :(

I'm sorry you have to suffer so much in this existence, it's all just so cruel to me, I see it as so dreadful how existing can easily get worse, I understand hating suffering in this existence. But anyway I wish you the best.

I get it I have the same thing. Severe digestive issues, chrones disease, while trying to work a 60 hour week a long side people who are total assholes. Please let me leave this world.

I'm so sorry you're struggling. Digestive issues are awful and crippling. Do you know what types of foods trigger it? If not, try a food diary and write down everything you eat and drink each day. When you have a flare up, you can look back on what could've triggered it.

I'm sure you've likely already tried this, but I thought I'd put it out there in case you haven't. I hope you get some relief soon!

Thank you for the advice. I do follow a LOW-fodmap diet for IBS, and normally it helps a lot, but it seems like sometimes my symptoms get a lot worse in spite of following this diet. Today I'm going to eat totally bland LOW-fodmap foods in the hopes it calms down.

I hope it works for you! It's a horrible condition to suffer with. I don't personally have it but I know many people close to me do. Do you find that stress triggers it as well?
