Hullo!! Just wanted to give a belated thank you for all the well wishes, I really appreciate them all :'D I definitely seem to be on the mend! I've been having an...interesting health time this year, but I'm working on it. I've started getting more sleep, at least, which is helping — sleep deprivation makes my digestive issues way, way worse. And also makes it more likely that I'll get sick in general aksjdfksjdf

But yeah, anyway! With luck I will be able to get more things done this week, as long as I can avoid making my body rebel against me again!

ARFID and IBS (and other GI issues) culture is feeling like you're "wasting food" by not eating the exact same food that the people around you are, even when you're not throwing it away, and when it would literally harm you to eat it

[britcision]

I know some people very sensibly limit their diets when they have a digestive disease (and I myself will take a cautious lick of anything spicier than black pepper to test it) but…

It might just be the irregularity (probably caused by having two fucking different digestive diseases)

It might be my Big Dumb Bitch disease (secret sixth undiagnosed disability)

But I have definitely become a lot more kamikaze about my food

My guts are going to be bad ANYWAY because they just are at random, so I might as well eat this chilli that’s been sitting out

Oops I left the cheese out of the fridge? I’ll take a bite and put it back in and if I die before tomorrow it can be thrown out

I’m a slow fucking eater anyway but my food safety awareness has dwindled to nothing in the face of the certainty that I’m Going To Be In Pain Anyway Give Me The Spicy

Nobody tell my gastro though he thinks I’m a good and well behaved patient because I tell him lies of omission and read the research he gives me

(He then uses this belief to fight my corner if my GP or other specialists think I’m a bad and naughty patient exaggerating my symptoms cuz he is a fucking angel and I love him I’m just out of fucks to give)

(This was INVALUABLE against my last GP who never forgave me for playing gameboy in his office when I was fucking 12 and called other patients liars to try and persuade me I was lying too)

I ate something experimental like a week ago to see if I could and I haven’t had a day since where I’ve been able to properly digest food and I’m so tired. I’ve had to leave work early every day I was scheduled since because I can’t eat enough to power me through a day without making myself sick.

[alexisamess]

isn't it :) just SO fun :) when you have a known trigger food :) and then you dont have symptoms for several days :) and think that means maybe you wont at all :) and then a full week later :) you feel like GARBAGE :)

isn't that so fun?

why tummy upset if I haven't eaten any trigger foods.......

[ndragoon]

Me: *wakes up from a dead sleep because my insides are extremely angry, only to flip from one end purging to the other*

My mother: "well, you clearly have Covid again so you won't be leaving the house for another four weeks"

Except it is because of these stupid pills and this stupid diet, which I have been complaining about for WEEKS NOW, because it been keeping my insides messed up
