35 Tweets About IBS That Make Me Laugh, And Then Sob On The Toilet

Like many of us in this world, I have IBS. If you have it, you *know* how much it actually sucks. The FODMAP, the triggers, the flare-ups, the constant stomach pain — it never ends.

So let's laugh through our tears with some jokes:

1. Literally, no one invited you:

Me: That fried food was delicious. Don't know why I don't do that more often. My IBS:

Me a person who is lactose intolerant with ibs and on my period after 2 lattes with whole milk in them: “why does my stomach hurt so much?”

Twitter: @fizzyillogical

14. This is how I feel about Chipotle:

all schools and workplaces should provide high quality toilet paper given they’re the main reason i have IBS

Twitter: @ehh_dub

15. This is hilariously depressing and I play this game every week:

With IBS, cheat days don’t exist. It’s more of a “am I willing to be uncomfortable and how much am I willing to tolerate ”.

Twitter: @Notthatcuteboy

16. I mean, I'm sure we ALL self-diagnosed before we got actually diagnosed!

Twitter: @jasminericegirl

21. Where does the poop go, though?

For hunters with IBS?🤔

Twitter: @ibscliniic

33. Even my gut doesn't trust my gut:

Twitter: @ThatFoodieFella

34. I don't know what I'd do without my air fryer, honestly:
