spoonies who experience stomach cramps due to ibs or something else gastro-adjacent, kindly leave remedies and suggestions in the notes? so far buscopan, painkillers, gentle massage, movicol, hot drinks, and frying my stomach with my hot water bottle are helping, but any and all suggestions are welcome!

#especially if your gastro symptoms get worse on your period because that is brand new for me 😣 #ibs #colitis #crohn's #ibd #inflammatory bowel disease #inflammatory bowel syndrome #.txt #spoonie #pain #chronic pain #chronic illness #chronically ill

Guess some people with IBD and rheumatoid arthritis just aren't going to be able to get their meds anymore

You know.... sometimes life is just you in a poncho, getting ready to stab yourself with your medication, and a Weird Al Yankovich song comes on because you have a video of his iconic songs in your headphones. And you just kinda.... do a little dance. In your poncho. With your stabbing medication in your hand. I love life.

Crohn's disease. I hope you burn in hell and suffer the wrath of a 1000 suns.

Why, if you feel you must put a tall toilet in a room with 2 toilets, did you feel the need to make //both// of the toilets tall

#directed at the room my family stays at when we can afford it #fantastic with enough beds for everyone 2 bathroom so I don't feel bad for getting stuck on a bad day #but both bathrooms have loud fan attached to the light #tall toilets #and no external lighting #I'm 5'2 my legs are dangling 2 inches off the floor #naturally my first day here was a bad Crohn's day #oh almost forgot the tp doesnt really absorb #vent #crohn's disease #chronic illness #ibd #crohn's #crohn's problems #chronic pain #Crohn's flare

My newest piece is dedicated to everyone who is defiant in the face of chronic illness

For all of us who fight every day and never give up, the warriors of the world.

My goal is to spread awareness and encourage fellow artists to draw your OC with the ribbon for a cause dear to you, whether you or someone you know if affected.

About me... I'm 25 years old and was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease earlier this year, the only sign being the intense knoting pain in my abdomen. It is very much a hidden disability which I fight every day, most often needing to take naps to fight fatigue. Thanks to me thinking I'd be a burden, I am beyond management with diet and immunesuppresants alone, I was put onto biologic medication within days of diagnosis, it saved my life. I was risking a bowel perforation which would've killed me. The character shows my determination and DEFIANCE in the face of this disease I must carry for the rest of my life

Something I haven't seen spoken about a lot is the psychological impact of being chronically ill and experiencing horrific symptoms, and knowing that literally no one can help you.

I could call a doctor, but I already know what's wrong. There's literally nothing they can do for me. And I can't afford to go just for reassurance.

I'm just in a flare and sometimes it's Like This. And you just have to swallow symptoms that live in the nightmares of well people, because you can't just have an emotional breakdown every time you're in a flare.

So I'm in horrible pain and distress, and I can't call for help, because no one can help me, and I have to act like it's fine, so I don't worry other people who get Very Upset that I can't just Fix It

And there's just a deep psychological burden in that, that I don't think well and able bodied people ever really think about.

They finally call me for an interview for a job I applied to months ago, and I’m having a Crohn’s flare and don’t feel like going to that interview with this pain 🙃
