Students with food intolerances deserve a safe, free lunch too. Failing to provide that because you think it’s unnecessary is just ableism. “Eating this food causes them pain because their body can’t digest it, but it’s not life threatening so we don’t need to accommodate it” is such a bad take. Yes, let’s just make them sick every day instead of giving them the option of safe, free foods to eat. So poor kids will have to choose every day if they’re going to starve themselves or if they’re going to be in excruciating pain the rest of the day when they’re trying to learn. Makes no sense.
Furthermore, I don’t think people realize what food intolerances entail. It’s not just, “oh, eating this food gives me a stomach ache.” It is often caused by the body’s inability to break down the sugars in the food because the pancreas and/or the small intestine doesn’t make enough digestive enzymes. People with food intolerances can have a number of disabling conditions, especially because of malnutrition and malabsorption. I am dependent on digestive enzyme supplements, as well as vitamins because I can’t eat and/or get the nutrition I need to thrive without them. This is disabling. Yes, even if it’s not going to immediately kill me if I eat the wrong thing.
Don’t put people in places where they’re required to work, promising that food will be provided for free, and then only provide foods that will make them sick.

Whatever the hell is going on with my digestive system is starting to interrupt my daily life so I'm being an adult about it and I have a doctors appointment in 2 weeks.
Anyone have tips on how not to be dismissed off hand as 'just being dramatic'?

The reality of whatever the fuck is wrong with me. Is it endometriosis or sever ibs c? Who knows. I cant see a gynecologist until July so im just waiting and hoping at this point.
This is me after spending an hour on the toilet this morning, unable to fully empty my bowels despite lactulose taken in the early hours. It has been working for the past few days, but this morning it decided otherwise. I am getting my period on friday, currently on day 2 break of the pill. I am convinced this is all related to my menstral cycle as diet does not change my issues.
This is a major flare up and im stuck in the office today so have another 11 hours before im home. I dont feel comfortable using the toilets at work bc it takes me so long.
Just ranting and showing the reality of constipation and chronic illness. Please do not send me advice or ask if i have tried x, y, z.

Of course as soon as I leave my house for a 3+ hour drive, the diarrhea hits. Woth no time to turn around, I had to stop at a gas station 1/4 miles from where I live to go the bathroom.

Ahhh yes time to play my silly little game of "Is it burnout or depression or just plain ol' exhaustion?"
