Got turbo sick over the weekend and all day my co-workers enjoyed me being a mess on dayquil. It was a fun day.

Sat down and unintentionally watched the whole first season of Seis Manos on Netflix. Would recommended highly.

Birthday weekend and my roommate has gone out of town. Having space to myself for a couple days is going to be wonderful.

It was nice to return to work after two and half months of medical leave and so many people were glad to have me back. It was really heartwarming. And they're trying to promote me apparently.

Finally going back to work after being on medical leave since mid-July. I wonder what it will be like when I return.

Been having a weird time adjusting to IBS since I found out I have it about a month ago. Today's really bad in particular. Anyone know any good foods or ways to manage it better?

Actually, I've just remembered. I went to a local herbalist recently and told her about my stomach issues and she prescribed a tincture (it's like alcohol with herbs) and a tea. It did help me so much with my digestion and alleviated a lot of my symptoms. It's pricey but worth trying if you can find one over in your country.

@Zeus No, my doctors already had me do a CT scan for ulcers and found nothing. They're sure it's just aggravated by an anxiety disorder I already have but since they're not psychologists they're not 100% on that.
@platy Yeah, I mostly just sit and chill watching something online when my anxiety acts up but since I already have an anxiety disorder it's hard to just manage it sometimes. It's very irritating. I'll try to look it up and see what I can find. One of the meds they gave me has some kind of small anti-depressant in it which they said should help but it really hasn't.

Stress is definitely a trigger. Even people with healthy digestive systems react to stress and anxiety with stomach problems (I know I do. The moment I feel high stress or anxiety my stomach starts acting up), so it makes sense that it's particularly upsetting for people with digestive disorders. My sister's doctor has also backed this up and told her it might help her to exercise lightly when she feels particularly stressed out. Can't say if it works or not, she doesn't do it, says she's in too much discomfort to even try. It's understandable, but it's worth a shot.
