Mady’s Personal Story

Mady’s Personal Story: “No matter what happens, keep going”

I am 30, my appearance is 22 and it is because of my thinness and I think that is because of my poor digestive health. I have always noticed since I was a child the emotions of fear of family violence, I think it was the beginning of my fears to a high degree. At 22 I was only aware that not knowing about IBS or that it was the bad thing. At work, I ate and they spent a while and my stomach was loosened or burned, almost daily until now, birds is the same the doctor told me “yes” I never had bad habits. I even drank water I walked I ate healthy, but I was sentimental and if I had problems of abuse at home and lack of self-esteem, I always felt different from the rest because they always seemed happy, and confident and I hid my daily struggle with problems of words. I continued my life, I visited pages and books of everything and yes I understood the disease. But it is very difficult to stay well even though I am an optimistic person and I cried a lot as a result of my illness because there was a time when I did not sleep well, I did not work well, my hair fell out, anemia and my face dehydrated and I hate my body. I had such poor absorption of nutrients that I never gained weight.I am tall1.64 and I only weigh 48, 49I have always thought that we can overcome anything. No matter what happens, keep going.
