#and idk how to live with this near constant esophageal and sternum pain and bloating

[soldier-poet-king]

I need to move out not just because my brain is going insane but also because I need complete control over my food again....I didnt start having all this stomach pain and constant acid reflux etc etc etc until I moved back in at the beginning of covid and my diet changed to whatever my mother decides. When I was on my own I ate way less meat/more veg and a more "traditional" Mediterranean food pyramid and I felt SO much better

Everyone wants to blame coffee or wine but my consumption of those hasn't changed so??? Like MAYBE it's partially age but also....I'm not that old and this is a p significant shift in a 2 yr period

#if i started cooking all my own meals and buying my own groceries i think my mother would be upset #mostly bc everytime i try she says oh just make me a list and she'll buy it #but shes OVERLY frugal and buys cheap and bulk and on sale #and im much more focus on small quantities of good shit #like it makes sense shes a SAHM of several kids and im a single person #but yall my GI tract is CONSTANTLY SUFFERING #and idk how to live with this near constant esophageal and sternum pain and bloating #that doesn't seem to be linked to any specific trigger food #i even had allergy testing done! nada of the main allergen foods #maybe i start meal planning again AND doing my own shoping #sure my bills will increase bc rn im a mooch #but im so desperate to not....be in pain.... #problem is my mother DOESN'T meal plan ahead of time so its hard for me to coordinate #i create WEEKLY schedules and i stick with them #i am a chreachure of habit and meticulous scheduling and lists #it makes my life easier and my stomach in less agony #franposting #health stuff tmi #sort of. im just. CHEST/STERNUM/DIAPHRAGM/ESOPHAGUS HURTY #my tums and gavascon consumption has increased exponentially #I NEVER USED TO NEED EITHER. EVER.
