    Re: Really loose stools this morning

    What you call 'your stupid brain' is actually you. It's not an uncontrollable outside force that you have no control of. Saying things like 'I can't cope' or 'I wish' is just reinforcing the incorrect notion that you can't do anything about this.

    As soon as you realise that your recovery is your responsibility and you're not a victim of something external, you might get that lightbulb moment.

    You're behaving like a victim, which needs to stop.

    As FMP also alluded to, you're also becoming addicted to reassurance, which also needs to stop.

    Re: Really loose stools this morning

    I just saw my doctor who said that my bowel problems are purely anxiety related, he said the tablets probs are making it a little worse but it’s purely anxiety,

    My faecal reading was 6, he said between 50-100 needs investigating and anything over 100 could be IBD so he said it’s deffo not IBD.

    He did say about the reassurance and I know I need to cut down.

    And your GP is not helping either with the easy access and constant reassurance/repetition of what you already know.

    They need to focus on helping you manage your own anxiety; offering constant reassurance will never help you learn to self-soothe.

    Yes I do think he should say no more appointments if you insist on talking about the same fears. You have been reassured countless times and now it's down to you to stand on your own 2 feet and start to reassure yourself instead of relying on others.

    Yea I understand that but surely they can get in trouble if they refuse to see me?

    I just don’t get why my anxiety is making my stomach so bad
