Struggling with IBS and Stress

My journey is kind of a build up of symptoms that come from multiple areas. I have adhesions from an early surgery and apparently I am prone to them. They were relieved once at age 36. Only lasted a while. Also, having an inflammatory disorder and or ibs, my morning ritual begins with bathroom at 6 ish. If I’m lucky not to much cramping throughout the am is optimal but not the case 1/2 the time. The visits to bathroom are mostly frequent. You will get over the visitor bathroom phobia! I have to take miralax or it would be unbearable and constipated. I also have to plan my days by how I feel. Work is hard to time out because of the urgency. Little stress goes a long way! Mostly afternoons are good. As well as evening. Don’t eat to much at one seating. Vaping a bit of thc will relieve a lot of the uncomfortableness. Try it.

I have been prescribed some tablets called Alverine Citrate. They are used maiy for spasms. What happens in my case is the anxiety and anxiousness of having to go on long journeys. Particularly when I don't know if there are any public toilets on the way. I often find myself going several times before relaxing to attempt a long journey. Of course, on the way I may have to stop. I try to distract myself sometimes by playing games or trying to close my eyes and think of other things if I'm on a bus or coach etc. Bus journeys are the worst for me in a morning as I am up v early and there are no places to go if need be so most of the time I have to take taxis which is expensive.

I’m unable to work because of the toilet situation I dnt like using public toilets as it is but I wouldn’t be able to work in a shop ie aldi Lidl Asda because u can’t just leave the till when there is a queue and it’s just the thought of havin to use any other toilet makes me worse , gives me anxiety Which triggers my nerves then here we go , so can you explain to me what you are doing to help yours
