Hi

Hi there,
I was diagnosed with functional dyspepsia / irritable stomach over a year ago (if you never heard of it: the symptoms are quite similar to IBS).
The most frustrating thing is that I still can't find a pattern of pain.
Even tho my doctor said that this isn't an uncommon illness I haven't meet anyone yet who is dealing with this too. I would love to hear from anyone who is suffering from this too :)

Putting on a mask

#CheckInWithMe I’ve been having a real hard time recently with my body not tolerating food with #FunctionalDyspepsia and strong #Anxiety any time I leave the house. I’ve been off work nearly 6 months and they’re now cutting my pay. My drs wouldn’t give me another sick line due to the amount of time I’d already been off even though I’ve lost/still losing a lot of weight and scared to go outside (I eventually got them to issue me one). My parents and psychiatrist are saying I have to go back sometime, but they don’t understand I’m still unwell, I’d go downhill if I went back now, and I’ll go back when I’m ready. I try to hide my emotion but I cracked yesterday and started crying to my mum, then she said when I get on like that I make her upset. It makes me feel like I have to do everything I can to please those around me. Through all this it feels like my friends aren’t there, and one I’ve vented to didn’t care. I’m getting so frustrated with it all, it feels like no one is taking me seriously and won’t realise unless something drastic happens

They don’t understand😤

I hate when the people closest to you don’t fucking understand how much your chronic illnesses play a role in your life 🙄 like shit I’m sorry I like to be home a lot it’s my safe space... it’s where I feel comfortable especially if I’m having flare ups... no one understands this pain and anxiety unless you have chronic illness yourself... anyways stay strong loves even if people don’t understand the struggle there’s others out here that do like me♥️ #IrritableBowelSyndromeIBS #FunctionalDyspepsia #PolycysticOvarySyndrome #Anxiety #Hypo #FuckEm
