SO a few months ago I had a bad case of diarrhea when i was out in public. It was horrible. Know im anxious about leaving the house because Im scared I may have that problem again...so know every time I am about to leave the house I feel like I have to go poo. any one else have this problem?? My husband thinks I may have IBS.
I know how you feel. I've had similar worries and it's troublesome. For me, taking probiotics helped my body to get regular so that I KNOW I'm good before I leave the house. Also, the triggers that stressed me out - mistreatment by others and feeling like I had to take it, feeling powerless, etc - I addressed with people I had issues with and I feel more in control and less worried in all areas. So I say to myself, relax, dahling, everybody poops!

Absolutely. This applies to me too. I rarely leave the house as well. I'm hoping as I progress through the program, I will find out ways to deal with this better and actually be able to start living my life again.
