i've been diagnosed with celiac for god knows how long and the last time i had wheat was 2 months ago. it's so friggin hard and all, i mean people make fun of you and stuff, i have 1 friend, i hardly ever talk to people, i mean REALLY talk to people. and i guess my life just kinda sucks. i used to be really popular, but then everyone found out i had celiac and partial epilepsy and things just sorta went downhill. people started saying bad things about me, i mean thing that i will never forget for as llong as i live.

my friend is always telling me not to give up and how every1 at my new school sees me as a overly happy and charismatic person and that i should keep it up, but i'm really depressed at heart and it's becoming almost too much to keep it back and not tell anyone. I just don't see how i'll ever be popular again, though that doesn't really matter anymore.

I would've gone down anyways i guess, i mean i'm really strange. the way i bring snails and lizards to school and say hi to people i don't know and cry at people i've barely know's problems.

it's just too hard to keep it all in and be, well, normal.

especially when i got celiac haunting me.

anyways. back on happy topic. Hellos to everyone. i'm new here....

a wittle bit about me -- my friend calls me stargirl, i guess cause i'm like her. I'm 13 and i live in california. I'm an artist to start off, of all sorts. I draw and enter in shows at my local art center and i've sold a piece. Other art forms i do -- martial arts, writing, photography, and i dance though i'm horrible. I loves animals. I've had thousands of birds, lizards, ect.... but right now i own one beta fish, AquaFlame, 2 leopard geckos, Gieco and Rugziel, one bearded dragon, Dargo, and one dog (sha-pei lab mix) Nerys.

Favorites

movie: Pay it Forward

book: pendragon, harry potter, warriors, but overall favorite the 2 inkspells!

color:black and green

friend: melia

dream: i wanna be a graphic designer

TV show: eureka

Band:Green day

Song: boulevard of broken dreams, bad day, and i dunno the name but it goes "staring at the ceiling making friends with shadows on the wall.....i'm not crazy i'm just a little unwell, i know right now you can't tell, but stay a while maybe then you'll see a different side of me. i'm not crazy i'm just a little impared i know right now you don't care, but stay a while maybe then you'll see how i used to be."

Hey stargirl! I just felt like posting in something... You don't need to be so depressed. Actually, a lot of what your probably feeling is probably hormones. (hey, my parents are nurses. cant help it...) I'm sure your a great person and that you shouldn't seem to be who you aren't. I think it's bad for the mental health.... Or something like that... ;)

Brains can't fly. It's scientifically proven.... hehehe.... Well, all I'm going to say is, I'm a lot like you in the fact that most people see me as happy. (NOT PREPPY!!! NOOOO!!! SAVE ME!!) Sometimes I'm not happy, but I have Mood Swings. (I have a red shirt with the tazmanian devil on it that says mood swings...) Just remember, you have friends here!

my brain DOES FLY!!!! it has small engines at the base and inertia dampeners to soften the landings.

that thought makes me happy.

((you'll find i say that alot))

i'm glad you're not preppy. i have nightmares about cheerleaders running towards me with machine guns.

i'll remember that my friend! :)

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      still struggling with cravings

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, ...

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

      Hello still dancing around my celiac disease and not getting medically backed up considering Ive been glutenfree since 1994.All my ailments are the core issue of my ghost disease aka celiac disease. Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
