Stomach trouble

JT
over 1 year ago

As an artist I also have many artist friends, many of whom I suspect would fit the diagnostic criteria for ASC.

The majority of those same people experience anxiety & stomach issues (IBS, IBD, etc).

So, this thread asks: Do any of you not get stomach issues every day/week?

...because I suspect this might be an interesting commonality between us all on the spectrum?

Could the difficulties we have to navigate day to day be interrupting our 'gut-brain-axis' and so be an easy to spot sign of an autistic person?

Sounds random now I write it, but I'm curious

    Thank you for this thread as it's really informative.

    Thank you all for your detailed replies.

    I have eaten just one slice of cheese on toast in the last 24 hours.

    I think I need to go shopping on Monday for some alternative foods.

    Good luck to everyone in their digestive system battle.
