I am nineteen and I was diagnosed with UC when I was sixteen. I've had two colonoscopies so far and I am told I will need one every year from now on.

Independent LIfe Not Going So Well

The doctor tells me stress can make the UC act up more. What I would really like to know is how am I not suppose to be stressed? I work and go to college and I pay my bills like I’m suppose to but it’s hard sometimes. Any tips on dealing with the stress and the pain?
