Meanwhile, Tobin has the shits.
« on: September 01, 2016, 01:20:31 AM »
Our good friend, Tobin, is stressing out in his life and job while the entire world of the DUmpmonkiez burn to the ground...

How mental states can affect the rest of your body (could be TMI for some people).


This might be TMI for some people, so you are forewarned if you'd like to exit now.


I've had problems with irritable bowel syndrome in the past. The illness manifests itself in me by having constant diarrhea. When the doctor diagnosed me he said that it's hard to say what causes IBS. He just told me how to treat the symptoms and that was it.

Well, now I think I know what causes my IBS. S T R E S S !

I got fired from a job on July 5th of this year and my IBS symptoms immediately reappeared after being dormant for many years, and the over-the-counter stuff I used to use to treat it wouldn't touch it. I got a new job on August 15th and my symptoms are slowly disappearing as the stress has dissipated.

In the past few years I have experienced stress at times, but nothing was more stressful than losing my job.

3. I didn't mean to suggest that all of these types of illnesses are due to emotions if I did.

IBS is also not nearly as severe an illness as what D has. What I have is uncomfortable, but I'm never going to require surgery for it.

Du is blessed to have some one to share this unfamiliar experience and some of its consequences.

I've been laid off 5 times since 1993, about to leave my present job under the pressure of the whole operation being moved (a year from now, but I'm 60-something) out of the area. Involuntary job searches are among my 4 least favorite things (alung with moving, root canals, and the entire colonoscopy process). It's stressful and unpleasant, but it's real life.

(1) Some retentive DU-member must've read into Tobers' post something that wasn't there. Unsurprisingly, given that DU is a self-sustaining straw man hatchery.

(2) Tobers must've been one-upped by a my-misery-i-worse-than-your-misery DU-victim.

Yeah, like vegans. Maybe Tobin should stop eating a bag of sliders at lunchtime and try some nice vegetables, then he'd have two things to talk about.

Isn't his latest job as a swaggering long haul trucker?  I think he is setting himself up for another "I was fired for no good reason" post in the next few days.  Pretty hard to swagger out of your big rig while holding in the squirts.

You are not thinking big enough.  My guess that he is setting himself up for full IBS disability and a "magical medical MJ card".
