Who /irritablebowelsyndrome/ here? How do you cope, robots?

By eating a balanced diet and maintaining healthy levels of physical activity.

By staying at at home all day every day. I can go from feeling fine one minute to an exploding ass the next with no warning.

Not exactly, but I am lactose intolerant so I can relate.

Carry generic Lactaid everywhere I go and buy singles/portable packs of Pepto-bismol when I forget.

Avoid all milk and cheese when I'm out, along with anything else that might be slightly laxative (such as coconut water/milk) I haven't had any accidents or near accidents in a long while *knocks on wood*

>haven't had any accidents or near accidents in a long while

Funnily enough I shat myself yesterday, thankfully I was in my room. It just fell out of my asshole.

same but only when i have dairy.

No IBS, but one step up with Crohn's Disease.

Gotta watch what I eat; some foods tend to make it flare up, even though I don't have as serious a case as some people with Crohn's/Colitis do. Avoid excessive fiber. I exercise a lot.

I don't drink soda and drink a lot of water. No milk period, although I can do milk products (cheese, yogurt.) I've also gotten good at clenching and holding that shit in if I have a little while before I can get to a toilet. I also take medication that suppresses it.

worst nonfatal disease ever created

i take immodium regularly, or opiates. technically immodium actually is an opiate though it doesn't get you high. lots of heroin users are frustrated that they get constipated when using, but for me it just makes me poop normal.

>have not had carton milk since 12
>am almost 26
>chugged lactose carton milk for the first time
>wanted to throw up and the taste out of me mouf

it's basically the cause of my neetness ever since i got it i barely leave the house and now have anxiety out of fear it might flare up

any advice please?

>>25857912
>I have this kind of shit that is not solid and not a diarrhea

This. And even when its not too bad I still get really smelly farts that literally seep out of my ass like a cracked gas pipe.

Crohns runs in the family and knowing my luck I've probably inherited it. I've lost contact with people simply because I couldn't leave the house in fear of flare ups.

>>25857442
Movie to india or other country where smelly anus and hand is socially acceptable

>tfw you see commercials with stuff ye trying to avoid but used to have all the time
>the normies are laughing
fucking flintstones push-ups!

>>25857442
I just deal with it. i'm lucky enough to were I don't get any blockages. I work outside so either I go shit in the portapotty, the woods, or a dumpster. I always have paper towel in my cooler for that reason.

>>25857912
iktf.
>almost home but walking funny because shit in pants or having the cramps

>>25858006
The anxiety and stress probably isn't helping reduce the likelihood of flare-ups, anon.

>inb4 reeee normie advice

Getting out, exercising, feeling the sun and breathing the fresh air could very well help, even if you're just walking around the block. That doubly helps by getting you out of the house, and not far from where you can just run home in a pinch for turboshits.

>>25857912
Use wipes for your dirty asshole

you're right the stress actually makes it way worse and more likely

i don't have a problem with leaving the house to go somewhere and do something right then but say i have plans to do something i will keep worrying till that day and then on the day my stomach will go. i fucking hate it. i lost my job because i couldn't take the stress and pain

As a kid I was scouted to be in commercials. First one was I was supposed to do was for Mcdonalds. My parents didnt have the money to/couldnt take the day off to take me to the shoot so they declined. I could have had the chance to make it as an actor. Lots of famous actors started off with Mcdonald commercials.

In most cases it is stress related.
Small doses of stress works like motivation, but if there is too much stress over long period of time its becoma chronic stress. Your body, your intestines are in constant tension, it fuck ups with bowel movement and food is not digested properly and that lead to shitty stool and alot of farts.

Most of people on /r9k/ had shitty childhoo, were bullied or they have some kind of mental illnes which leads to stress

>>25857442
I try not to eat things that set me off. I used to get awful cramps and I'd have to take dicyclomine to stop them but that's only happened once in the past few months.

As far as day to day life goes, my shits aren't always painful (maybe a few times a month I'll be screaming) but half time they're messy as fuck and it's like trying to scrape peanut butter out of a shag carpet. The other half they come out clean I don't even bother wiping because my ass is too hairy to even clean. If it's messy, I'll wipe until it feels futile or I draw blood, whichever comes first.

Axe the breakfast cereal. All the dairy and sugar churning around in your stomach is a recipe for diarrhea.

Too much caffeine gives you the shits too.

>>25858173
Wrong thread, bucko.

I was actually scouted once to do a juicy juice commercial, but my mom thought it was a scam.

I'm looking into the GAPS diet right now, haven't started yet, but I hear it's like a godsend.

In the meantime, I'm taking 100 billion cfu's of probiotics a day. it helps a lot, actually.

>>25858351
i used to take it about every single day in the mornings, then more as needed. it depended somewhat on what i planned on eating. i cut alcohol out of my diet because i was drinking way too much, now my ibs is much more manageable, turns out the alcohol was making it way worse. i just do heroin now, lol. when i do h i dont take the immodium because if i do both ill become constipated.

Don't have IBS but I only poop once or twice a week and I've never pooped in a public place and whenever I poop, I run the shower and take all my clothes off and put them under the door so nobody can look under the door and see me
