About Us
Irritable Bowel Syndrome is a part of us; a part of our life story. Like many personal stories, ours has elements of physical challenges, of which IBS is one. IBS is often accompanied by painful emotions, cloudy thinking, and unhelpful behavior. Like many storms, ours has blue skies and stormy days. Turtle Gap, Inc. is offering a group forum, Befriending My IBS, in order for us to provide education and support to those who experience IBS storms. The focus of this group forum is on learning how to befriend our IBS. Life isn’t about the storm, it is about learning to dance in the rain.
