Bowels/Diet and Emotional trauma!

[Guest guest]

All these people worried about their frequent bowel habits - I AM

ENVIOUS!!

Ever since I started on raw foods and this time was no exception my

bowels practically stop working and I feel like I have eaten an

orchard. Its almost like the raw food makes my colon more spastic

than it already is. I am in such a mess.

On advice I have put off fasting for a while; But thinking, maybe

this time a good long rest will heal the problem..?

 

In fact I have completely sabotaged every thing I had put in motion

recently. I confess to feeling traumatised by my emotions and

perception of life. The nightmares, the past, THE PRESENT (thats the

worse actually) and my total anger, frustration and ENVY of

what " should " be.

 

I currently feel that I do not deserve to be well. (But even this is

ridiculous)I keep telling myself this and that .. Trying to find a

formula for forigveness and all that. But I spend most of my days

crying uncontrollably, shaking, feelings of despair and isolation.. I

could go on... But in fact I feel like I CAN'T go on..

 

And then this - All these people having wonderful bowel movements - I

would love to be able to have a poo without pain once a day! But 4

times a day? - That would be a dream come true!

And now I have sabotaged my diet horrendously - So what can I expect

but more of the same?...

 

I am sorry to blurt this all out at once; But I have been deperately

trying all week to put on a positive act hoping it would become me.

 

Please God - Just do anything neccessary to help me HELP and COMFORT

myself. xx

Hi Kay. Just sending you some good wishes as you go through this. I found a good

way for me to go raw was to stock the house full of wonderful bananas avocados

melons etc. and stay home for a few days with no other foods around, and tons!

of delicious raw foods to tempt me. Oh don't forget dates. Yum.

and for the record, after eight months on raw I have usually one bm a day,

sometimes more but often not more. this may be due to the fact that I am home in

the mornings and like to " play on a home court " so to speak. perhaps I

subconciously squelch other bm's because I'm not home.

Watermelons have come where I am and I start each day with a huge helping of

watermelon juice. It is such a huge pleasure! (just thought I'd share).

G ood luck with your journey! Lane
