Feeling worse after bowel movement

I have multiple chronic illnesses that have caused constipation so actually having a bowel movement always made me feel a little better but recently it’s been making me feel really weird and bad like i start shaking, feeling nauseous, stomach pain and just a feeling of being unwell. I’ve had to cancel all my plans this week because i had a bowel movement yesterday and now i just feel how you feel when you have a stomach bug

Toilet anxiety

I always have really bad toilet anxiety if i’m going to be away from a toilet or not knowing where a toilet is and it’s completely taken over my life i know it all stems from social anxiety and just the fear of embarrassing myself in public. It doesn’t help that my anxiety always makes me gut act up aswell

Does anyone have any tips on how to feel less anxious as i have a two hour long road trip on Thursday and my anxiety is through the roof 😑

Tattoos

I’m 16 so a parent will be there to sign a form but i’m booked in for a tattoo on Thursday which i am so excited for but im also really nervous because of the unknown if it’s going to hurt really bad and i start to feel nauseous and maybe ill throw up? i’m thinking all worse case scenarios right now

i talked to my mum about it and she said just don’t go but im so tired of my emetophobia stopping me from doing things all the time and i’m refusing to let it win this time but i was wondering if anyone could share their experience with tattoos? or maybe how you made it less stressful? thank you

EDIT: a few people seem to be concerned at how young i am and how good the artist is if they’ll tattoo a 16 year old. I live in ireland so it is perfectly legal with a consent form, as for the artist they’re from a really good tattoo place with loads of awards and a 5 star hygiene rating. They’ve done a few of my mums tattoos and even some of my dads which have all looked amazing.

Tattoos

Im 16 with multiple chronic illnesses that leave me somewhat homebound, My dad is getting a tattoo this Thursday and he said that if i wanted to get one too that he’d sign a consent form (this is probably an attempt to finally get me out of my house) but I jumped at the chance to because i’ve been nagging about getting one for almost a year now so i booked an appointment and now i guess im second guessing how i’m going to handle this because my system is just so weak i’m nervous that a tattoo might mess with it and i might even pass out or something.

I talked to my mum about it and she said just don’t go but im so tired of my illnesses making me miss out of everything i’m tired of it winning so not going just isn’t an option because if the last 5 years have been this bad i think i deserve to get something nice for myself.

I was wondering anyone else here who’s gotten tattoos while ill how did it go? or how did you make it easier? thank youu

EDIT: it is a fine line tattoo that should only take about half an hour or so

How are we surviving this heatwave

the uk heatwave is bad enough but it’s so bad when i’m in so much pain and the only thing to ease it is a hot water bottle but it’s far too hot to use one

How to stop needing people

I get really bad anxiety if my mum isn’t with me all the time because she’s my safe person if i ever throw up she gets how terrifying it is for me and she’ll help the best she can and sit with me and make the whole experience not as stressful but it’s gotten to the point where i don’t sleep at night knowing she’s going to work the next day which is actually happening right now it’s 4am, can’t sleep because my mum is working 9-5 tomorrow and i already feel so sick and im scared it will happen when i’m alone. I always feel like such a burden to my mum i feel horrible for it but i’m really panicking right now i also just feel so sick like i really could throw up but it’s so hard to gauge is it sickness or anxiety fml

jealously is turning me into a bad person

I think every chronically ill person has felt some sort of jealousy that’s almost a guarantee but i think mines is almost becoming resentment and i hate it.

I get so jealous and mad over small things, things that healthy people definitely don’t think twice about and it’s making me hate people for example i have a girlfriend who is wonderful genuinely she’s amazing but yesterday she went out with a bunch of friends and i found myself feeling sicker than usual and then i realised how jealous i was that she could do that like what do you mean she can just go outside and see people and have fun and not find it impossible so i basically ghosted her the whole day and probably made her feel like shit even though she’d never admit that as she’s so nice.

I try not to go into the whole pity me act because i know people hate it but what did i do wrong to deserve this my life was perfect it was fulfilling and now ive just lost everything and almost everyone due to illness there’s nothing i want more than to be able to live an actual life again and not be so sick and so homebound. I thought time would help but i’m getting more jealous by the day and i’m worried i’m becoming a horrible person because i’m not horrible i’m actually so kind, i’ve always been but fuck i’m just so unbelievably jealous i want those things too why do i have to miss out.

My cat HATES my sister

for context i have an indoor cat called milo i adopted him as a stray 5 years ago now and he’s the sweetest boy and i’ve never had any bother with her apart from normal cat antics lol but he’s always avoided my sister which is fine but recently he’s started getting vicious towards her? like hissing and crying at her and trying to scrap her. He’s never been alone with her so i know she’s never done anything to him and she doesn’t have any pets of her own but is there anyway i could try get him to like her a little more lol

i’m scared my chronic constipation will kill me

i think people are going to read this and think i’m the silliest person on earth but i’m so scared

for context i’m 16 and have a number of illnesses and constipation is a big part of it all, around 2 years ago i got extra ill and i’ve pretty much been home bound ever since about a year ago i went private and got an mri done finally and it showed a bowel impaction i got sent home with movicol and instructions on how much to take. Fast forward to today and i’ve yet to take the movicol and the pain has been getting significantly worse that i can hardly stand for 10 mins.

Your probably wondering why i havnt taken the movicol but without going into too much detail i have quite bad PTSD surrounding bowel movements and having to clean up certain family members when i was really young so now i have a mad fear of anything to do with poop. I always thought i’d rather die than take it but recently somethings just felt different and the pain is so much worse i started throwing up because of it last week and now im so fucking scared it doesn’t help i have GCSE’s on for the next week (at my home but still) im so stressed

i don’t want to die but i feel like i need to

TW and maybe this isn’t the right place to say all of this but i’m chronically ill and mentally ill and the easiest way to put it is i’m home bound, i leave my house like twice a year and i had to drop out of school, ive lost everything and have nothing going for me

Im 18 soon and my dad (who isn’t very understanding at all) keeps nagging me as to when i’m going to go to college or get a job and the truth is i won’t be able to. I’m in constant pain and i feel sick all of the time that i don’t believe ill ever do these things even though he so desperately wants me out of the house

I’ve struggled with suicidal thoughts pretty much my whole life but ever since getting sick they’ve been worse and i just think if im never going to do anything with my life and it’s going to be this boring and miserable forever then i should just kill myself. I miss my life i miss my friends and i miss being able to do everyday things and not think twice about them maybe im being silly and dramatic but i really do believe i just won’t be here much longer
