My Crohnstipated Life

There are days when my body feels like my worst enemy. Days when I wonder, Why me? Why this?

But after years of fighting Crohn’s, I’ve learned that mindset matters. I can’t control my disease, but I can control how I respond to it.

Here’s what helps me stay positive:

💜 Gratitude for the good days – Even if they’re rare, I hold onto them.
💜 Laughing at the absurdity – Because if I don’t laugh at my bathroom emergencies, I’ll cry.
💜 Celebrating small victories – Did I get through the day without a flare? That’s a win.
💜 Focusing on what I can do – Crohn’s may limit me, but it doesn’t define me.

Positivity doesn’t mean ignoring the pain. It means choosing to see the light—even when it feels far away.

Stay Strong.
