I’m one of those “it works for everyone else but not me” kinda gals. I’ve tried it all….special elimination diets galore! Mediation, homeopathy, herbs, etc. Things have gotten worse and worse. My worst flare was when my parents passed 6 months apart. From there it’s been downhill with pain and disappointment and abandonment in my life. Enough said. Now I’m doing this but most people, including therapists, think it’s witchcraft and the phrase that gets thrown around is “managing your pain” til I want to scream. So I”m alone in this and it’s taking a lot to keep believing.
