Can you imagine having a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, that makes you poop well over a dozen times a day. Imagine when it escalates to affect your skin, your hair, your weight, and even your mental health.

This is what most people who suffer from Crohn’s Disease go through all their lives. They might have good days, but a flare-up makes even the simplest daily tasks impossible, and of course that’s not taking the pain into account.

Many people who suffer from such a horrible illness also suffer equally from mental illness. It has been suggested that the two (physical & mental illness) could be far more closely related than we have thought. That’s a subject for another day, but today’s guest highlights this relationship, with serious depression & anxiety playing a major role throughout his life.

Today’s podcast welcomes Conor, a 28-year-old from Glasgow in Scotland. Conor was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at the age of 12 and has suffered for all these years, until 2 years ago when he stepped away from the norm, took matters into his own hands, ignored the advice of his doctors & dieticians, and tried something completely radical, which reflected his desperation.

This is a podcast about an amazing person who has achieved what most people with Crohn’s disease can only dream of, remission!

This conversation has been broken into 2 parts (Part II is on Podcast 27). I hope you enjoy it, & I hope it encourages you to step out of your comfort zone and challenge the norm!
