Just a vent

[Allegra]

This is just a quick vent to get out all the emotion I have right now. This morning I got my exam results from secondary school, and they were good enough so that I will be accepted into my first choice of University. But the dampner on my day? My ******* stomach. Kept me up the whole night with pain and even now, I want to celebrate with the lovely cake my mum bought me and Ben&Jerry's cookie dough ice cream and I can't eat any of it because this disease has me so terrified to eat anything I remotely like in case it makes it worse. I'm so sick and tired of this all, I don't even want to go to University in two weeks if I'm still in this flare

Congratulations on university.

Sorry you're still flaring. Sending you my support.

Congratulations on you acceptance into university. i wouldn't let crohn's get to me down though, enjoy your day, you deserve it, for all the hard work you put into it.

Sorry for the flare up though. Like DJW . Sending my support.:kiss:

Congrats on getting into your top choice. It sucks to have to deal with this on top of the stress of college but take one day at a time and hopefully you will figure out what works for you.

I share your feelings. I've been flaring and bleeding for a year now. I want to enjoy parties and celebrations like everyone else this summer- but I can't. In fact I can't really enjoy much of anything with this crap disease. And to be honest, I cant see a light at the end of this misery. I hope we all feel better someday.

This disease is starting to take over my life mentally, but It makes me sad when I see it happening to other people. My vote for you is to eat the cake and celebrate.
