        @maxamus87 yes same, my mental health makes my ibs worse and the ibs makes my mental health worse. It’s like a never ending cycle

      Yes and it’s rough. I already have anxiety and seasonal depression. It’s hard to not feel sad or depressed when you feel like a burden to your spouse. I don’t think I am but my brain automatically goes there due to my anxiety.

        @CanCan79 I know what you mean. I think figuring out your triggers may help. I just started to myself and I'm able to affirm myself better now that I have :)

      Yes and yes, it’s common to have more than one and have them set each other off 😖

      Yes and yes! Dealing with multiple chronic conditions certainly makes mental health worse as well.
