Help Me Get My Life Back

For most of my life, I’ve been struggling with frequent stomach issues. I found out 3 years ago that I have IBS. Ever since that day, my stomach has gotten significantly worse. I have trouble eating food sometimes, severe nausea frequently, and I’m always switching between constipation, diarrhea, and just throwing up. I have constant pain that either feels like my stomach is being punched, or like I’m hungry or have to poop when neither is true. It’s clear that I have more than just IBS. I think I might have Crohn’s Disease because I know many people with it that say they went through similar and were also originally told they had IBS. I’ve been hospitalized numerous times before and have gotten a colonoscopy two years ago, but I’ve gotten so much worse since then and I know I would have to have another one done. I fear I will need multiple tests done and possible surgery that I can’t afford. Along with the prior problems, I also get nauseous and sometimes throw up in stressful situations, making it impossible for me to keep most jobs. It doesn’t help that I suffer from depression and anxiety, so a lot of things are stressful to me. Also, something else significant is that I currently have a foot that didn’t properly heal from a fracture, so even without the stomach issues, I’m still unable to currently work. I thought my foot was healed and I could work again, but flash forward to now and I’m limping on and off and I’m in immense pain when standing for long periods of time. I’ve tried finding a stay-at-home job, and I’ve tried doing some side businesses but neither one worked out, so I’ve got nowhere else to go than here. I feel completely hopeless and am starting to have suicidal thoughts because I don’t know how I can afford what I need without a job or insurance. If anyone on here is able to help me at all, even if it’s a small donation or simply sharing this post, I highly appreciate it and you’ll be helping me way more than you could ever know. I feel horrible having to tug at people’s heartstrings but I just want to live a normal life again. I need to know what’s wrong with me and how I can fix it or at least help.

I’ve created this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friends, Sarah and James, who are enduring every parent’s worst nightmare — the loss of their beloved son, Leo.

We’re heartbroken to share that our dear friend Alex passed away far too soon. His light, his laughter, his incredible spirit — they touched so many, and his absence is deeply felt.
