How do I explain my experience of colitis to others?
Everyone experiences colitis differently, which can make it difficult to explain to others. Putting your experience into your own words can help you communicate what matters most to you.
"When I started a new job, I printed an information sheet from the Crohn’s & Colitis UK website and added notes about how colitis affects me. I shared it with my new manager, who said it was useful, although I didn’t find them especially understanding. Having prepared information helped me explain my needs clearly, even when you don’t get the response you want."
