Sometimes I feel like when I need to get my thoughts or feelings out, screaming is the only way to do it. I keep thinking that because I know a lot about being sick that it puts me at an advantage. Am I all wrong? Is it better to stay uninformed and wait for Doctors and groups like the CCFA to tell me what I should be eating [yeah, right... lots of help there], or what drugs to be taking? Because I just don't understand something right now.
Real Recognize Real, right? So why do I feel like such a douche when I know straight off the bat that a Doctor or Crohn's 'Survivor' is full of it?? When I know full well that the drug being pushed to me is new and that there is absolutely NO cure for my disease? It doesn't even put me in a bad mood, because I understand these things and know enough to keep myself safe. But what gets me is that SO many people put their faith and understanding in people that seem to know what they're talking about as far a curing their own Crohn's [more bullshit], and they'll share it all with you for the low price of blah blah blah!
[We are all survivors of this disease. In this post I refer to those who claim to have discovered their cure and actually have the balls to charge you for it.]
We need more people who know the real deal. The raw deal. We deserve it. Because we are the raw deal. And I swear on a stack of Bibles... Our sob stories, this real shit-- it will be heard.
Because trust me, you'll be hearing it coming from miles away.
I'm am so sick of this ridiculousness

I agree. There is too much stock and validation put into doctors. I am not saying we shouldn't listen to doctors. What I do think is that we aren't their children and shouldn't expect them to take care of us like we are. I also think that many of us MUST take a HELL of a lot more responsibility in our own lives.
Kudos!
