Unempathetic silly family of mine
The story
Guys, Im in my early twenties, I recently became histamine intolerant, and none of my family members are empathetic. I developed this chronic condition due to 3+ months of stress and insomnia that led to gut inflammation. I currently couldnt eat anything spicy or delicious and lost weight. Feeling sick and tired physically and mentally. Due to these histamine sensitivities, I couldn't sleep well due to persistant itching for a few whole nights. Then I tried explaining the condition, why I'm researching intensely about histamine intolerance, and the reason for avoiding certain foods. But everyone at home calls me stupid and dumb for not eating everything and that I'm an idiot to research food sensitivities. I even infinitely explained to them about how the symptoms abate whilst I'm on an elimination diet, but still they laugh and mock at me for caring for myself. I m very assured that even a child would understand my situation. They were even laughing at me at the clinic while I was conversing with the doctor. I recently requested them for stress reduction supplements to sleep well, but they hope that I can be cured without anything, but I no longer have the strength to endure this. I cry every time I wake up and feel the venomous cortisol rushing and inflaming my body, causing pain. I dont mind being ignored and abandoned, but I'm tired of them laughing and mocking my problems. There is no sleep , good diet or basic understanding .. It's okay
What do u think about my parents?

oh man, that's really rough!!! totally get it, histamine intolerance is no joke and can be a real struggle... your family should educate themselves before calling u stupid... chronic conditions are not just about food preferences!!! they affect your whole life... hard to believe some ppl still don't get it.... 😒 feeling unsupported must be exhausting... stress amplifies these issues, and u deserve understanding!! everyone's body is different..... elimination diet and research aren't just "silly things"!!!! stay strong and prioritize ur health... don't let their ignorance undermine your efforts... 💪 wishing u better days ahead....
dude, i get that you're struggling with this whole histamine thing, but maybe your fam's just tryin' to help in their "own way"; sure, they might not totally get it, but they're prob not tryin' to be mean (I guess...). it might help if you try to see things from their perspective too. stick with it, you might see things improve. ✌️
dealing with histamine intolerance is not easy... families can be clueless sometimes 😒 you got to do what’s best for you... if they can't see that, it ain't your fault... health is a priority ;; keep doing you and let them laugh... maybe they'll get it eventually... don't let their words bring you down... stay strong and keep pushing forward... hope things get better soon...
hey, I feel for you, but honestly, it sounds like you've blown this a bit out of proportion; sometimes people just don’t get it because they’re not living it, you know? seems like you're expecting them to magically understand overnight, which isn’t super realistic. when you say they "laugh and mock", are you sure they're not just confused or unsure how to react? 🤔 maybe try cutting them some slack. sometimes, folks just need time to catch up, and making a big fuss won’t solve anything. it’s great you’re doing research, but maybe chill a bit and give them a chance to see things differently.
