He definitely had depression that's why I related with him and liked him so much when I was a teenager. At least one major suicide attempt before the real one. But conspiracy theorists always have to chime in. I wish anyone with a chronic condition all the best and hope they find ways to lessen the pain.
Detective J I’ve been dealing with a stomach ailment for about a month now. I’ll tell you one thing, I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. I have a history of mental illness and just when it started getting better and I stopped smoking I get hit with this. My grades are plummeting, my family doesn’t believe me, I haven’t eaten well since this started. I don’t know what to do.
Detective J Thanks for the reply. So id say I’ve always had a poor stomach but especially the past 3 years. However, that was pretty mild to moderate. This past month has been very severe. I constantly feel like I’m being stabbed in the stomach. Every so often I get very bad nausea. Constipation. Loss of appetite. It’s been bad. I’ve gotten this medicine that has done jack shit. I’m going to the doctor again tomorrow.
Chronic pain is so hard to explain . If you have it , you know what I mean . You reach a point where you will try anything that might help ... just to make it stop for awhile . So sad to hear him talk about it . Rest peacefully Kurt .Peace from NB , Canada
Up. To all of You. Trust me or not, drink the most pure coconut milk like about 5 dl per day, spread in the whole day, for at least 7 days. And avoid, really, cow milk, gluten and white sugar the most as you can. And thank me, I hope, later. I've suffered from it almost 6 years, deeply, after a FUCKING PTSD, and I write this after this 1 week of try. Hope that you'll write me a good new soon. Much love. Here to live. Not to leave.
Ibhave this the only thing that helped is a low dose anti Depresents Endep Took me 10yrs to get in diagnoses As functional gut disease. Brain to gut issord caused by stress
I don’t agree with Kurts drug use but it is understandable.He was forced to suffer constant stomach pains and his doctors wouldn’t give him anything for it up until 1993.Kurt was stuck with a tuff choice.If he didn’t use heroin he wouldn’t have become addicted but then he would have been in chronic pain.It was almost like he was forced into drug use.It’s a tragic example of what some people will do to escape chronic pain.
it was heroin he was using to treat it since nothing else helped him anymore. He says the doctors were a scam and they didn't even find out what he had specifically
I ALWAYS tell people IBS is ALL mental health. A calm mind is a calm gut! Try taking an SSRI and see if it helps. I take Paxil and it finally calmed my mind which in turn calmed my gut. How are you feeling today?
I’ve been so worried ab this for a while and seeing this and everyone’s comments really helps me know that I’m not alone with this pain I have to deal with.
I wish more people understood what its like to live with a disease this debilitating and isolating and depressing. Pain is a really hard thing to wake up to daily and I so feel him on this
Yeah, people can't understand why you're not so social, why don't you just go to another useless doctor. Can't tell you how many doctors I've been to. I am doing everything to fight H Pylori. I also feel like Kurt. I don't care if I'm alive. I didn't choose to be born and deal with this for so long.
Oh God, I feel horrific for him. I have IBS and I know exactly what he is talking about the pain is real, I’ve had 4 kids naturally, no pain meds and this pain is comparable at times. It truly makes you wanna die, thankfully I was FINALLY put on nortriptyline! Literally saved my life! I know what he means when he said people get tired of hearing you complain about it, just go about your day wanting to die, makes you tough! ☹️poor thing

@@harrisonwilbanks2380 well , after years of taking this devil drug I take back what I said. It’s horrible. Just quit last month after gaining 37 pounds... what do you suggest?
Rip kurt I understand your pain brother and can relate to you and your music so much. You were and are the best at what you did. You will never be forgotten and your music will live on forever.
ima believer he was more than just the music man. the only person i felt a connection too like his words were my thoughts and he was the first and only i heard speak with the same soul amd heart as mine. i looked up to him like a older brother.
E J Gallo All part of the plan. They got people running themselves into the ground, crazy work & life balanced living. More people than ever before are now taking meds, not all of which are actually doing much good, but it’s serious serious profits for pharmaceuticals.
I totally agree when Kurt says that "most GI doctors don't know anything about stomach diseases". I've been suffering from Eosinophilic Enteritis for 5 years and doctors in my country have absolutely no idea how to treat this horrible disease. The pain is the worst part ... It completely destroys your mental stability :'(
A red irritation in his stomach would suggest he had gastritis as well as some type of peptic ulcer, on top of his IBS which I also suffer with, all three, as a matter of fact and it makes me feel incredibly suicidal. Doctors 20 years on after Kurts death still can’t identify the actual cause of IBS and still can’t treat it. I agree with him 100% when he calls the Gastro doctors “a scam” cause they don’t know what they are doing! 😂
Everyday is a struggle. Last thing that comes to your mind in bed before you sleep (that is, when you are able to sleep): "hope I dont wake up tomorrow so I dont have to go through a whole day of suffering." Then you wake up next morning, and all the misery and pain returns.
I'm on a 10yr roll of stomach pain that wakes me up at 1am every mourning,,doctors waste of time,,understand the struggle ,I never get a day off,,,but I'm to stubborn and got to far to die now,,hope your still going too
@@sarmcg52 you might want to keep trying doctors, it's probably not ibs if it regularly wakes you up, it could be something more treatable. Either way, good luck
He suffered from a real PHYSICAL pain, no doubt. I want to pull my hair out when people pat you on the back and say its anxiety or depression. May he rest in peace. I'm so sorry Kurt.
I feel his struggle. Got UC and it's quite honestly a living hell. Went from working out 5 to 6 days a week to doubling over in pain walking across the block
@Don't Subscribe Eating is also almost completely impossible. I literally lost so much weight in a matter of months that i went from slightly overweight to underweight sick looking person cause i couldnt eat almost at all. Thats also the period where i get heavy into benzos and weed etc... So i can relate to what Kurt is saying cause the pain would really go away when you are high.
I remember the having the same symptoms on September 29, 2023. Luckily, with the massive doses of vitamin c, and ginger tea, the pain and the stomach problems went away within 2 days. The difference is that this happened during the early hours of that fateful morning.
He's definitely right on doctors being a scam. Doctors perscribe to get rich. Now few good doctors still exist u know the one's that are actually concerned
They are not a scam. The reality is modern medicine is limited, but he is right that some pretend they know or aren't straight with you that they don't have an answer. One doctor was straight with me, and I appreciated that. He didn't have a real answer, and that's frustrating, but I hate it when doctors act all arrogant and can't do much for you.
@@younghirsch In South Korea, where I live doctors, actually take the time to talk to you and find out what they can do, but in terms of gastroenterologists, they still don't really have answers in many cases no matter where they live.
I was admitted to the hospital for 2 months a couple of years ago due to awful stomach pain, they did lots of tests and found inflammation in my bowel and it was so so painful! I really feel for what he went through! They’ve given me morphine 3 times in the past as I managed to get to the hospital but just sat on the floor in tears. It’s awful ❤️
A few years ago I suffered from intense and relentless sciatic pain from a pinched nerve between a herniated disc in my spine. The only way I could sleep was with heavy pain killers which would make be nauseated. So my choice was back pain or feeling sick to my stomach. When you are experiencing unrelenting pain like that for weeks on end it fucks with your mind. You become depressed, then angry. I can see how someone experiencing that for years might become suicidal. Luckily my back issues eventually got better through self care. I can totally empathize with someone dealing with pain issues.
Hope you're doing alright man. I know exactly what you're going through. Been dealing with it for 9 years come this summer. Keep fighting the good fight as long as you can
Robert Flanagan fuck ibs!! Dude please don’t say “on my way there”! Just stay alive I have ibs too, I have it since 5 years it literally fucked up my whole life, all the people I know left me! But I don’t care cause I’m already suffering with this shit, listen I’m not a strong girl, I cry myself to sleep and I cry like every fucking single day because of it! So if you’ll ever read my comment I hope you stay alive! I’ll be here for you if you need someone to talk to! Just don’t do anything that hurt you cause I know how it feels to have ibs 💔:(
I know how you feel. I have had chronic stomach pain for 3 years and have thought MANY times about blowing my brains out. Try to hang in there though. At least as long as you can
Been having this issue since 9th grade so bad to the point I had to leave school I remember I was outside always with my friends to being in my room all day can't even go out without having stomach pains so I'm there sitting in their restroom for 30 mins I'm 21 now and I still have this problem ever since It started happening i been wanting to off myself..
you know your chronic pain is a huge issues once you just give up on everything, just so you can feel better for a little bit. it’s a relentless cycle. i’m probably gonna take the easy way out here soon, but if you’re reading this keep fighting i guess or whatever am expert would say
I feel your pain brotha 😰 I hope your still here. It’s not fair what your being made to suffer through along with others, like me. Love you bro. Please keep fighting! ❤❤❤❤
I have this problem for the last 8 years. It's like a burning rotten feeling like you ate bad food and it doesn't go away. I tried changing my diet. Less gluten helped very little. Only thing that finally worked was kratom. I still get it, but very rarely like once every week or two. I used to get it everyday.
The interviewer in the first clip was not listening. He asks him the same question he already answered. He had so many good questions he could of asked in regards to his stomach. Makes me mad some interviewers are so simple and DONT LISTEN
The sad thing is I’m 99% certain that the “drugs“ he talked about that fixed it were not the prescription kind, or at least not in the traditional sense. Candida/IBS issues are a vicious cycle between brain and body so I can imagine something like heroin would be one of the few things that could break the cycle and appear to provide temporary relief.
A great watch, I have had crippling stomach issues for over 4 years now, gone from 14 stone down to less than 10 and its a battle. Just got to keep on fighting and trying to get it sorted
I have SAME issues and I'm in constant, terrible pain. Severe scoliosis which has been giving me pain for at least 10 years. As I've gotten older, the digestive system is now affected. I'm on no pain meds. God bless him.
I agree. While I am sad he is gone I have the same thing he had and NO ONE should have to deal with this. To be honest some days are so bad I think about doing what he did to
I think based on everything I've read - and I'm just one millenial who was only 1 when Kurt died - it seems like Kurt's stomach issues could have been related to Heroin withdrawal. Kurt started using heroin around the late 80s which is conveniently enough around the exact same time his stomach issues started to become debilitating. Stomach and GI issues can be related directly to withdrawals from opiates and I think this was just something he conjured up in his head to excuse his drug problem. He may have legitimately had IBS - but it's awful funny to me the timing of all of it, and I know stress can be a big factor there. Remember however that drugs are not a joke - if you're active in addiction please remember people love you and you can beat it if you want to. If you're in recovery or remission you are doing great work and I'm super proud of you. Be nice to yourselves.
For anyone struggling with IBS, first thing to treat is mental health, but it helps to avoid coffee and alcohol, Include pre and probiotics, and avoid food that causes inflammation
his pain was really bad. it was sad how many procedures he had and how many doctors he saw who couldn't help him. I have pain too. the pain never goes away, and no one can fix it. it is making me miserable. I understand how Kurt felt
I have IBS, which I think was just an easier diagnosis for them, and I know what it can do to your mental health. It’s frustrating and hard to live a normal life
Funny that people are still viewing this. Saw you post your comment just yesterday. I'm here because I have a gastro dr appt in an hour. I remembered hearing about his stomach issues after he committed suicide. I've always had digestive issues because of a birth defect with my esophagus being connected to my lungs instead of my stomach when I was born and they did emergency surgery at 7 hours old but for the last month, I've been saying that I really understand Kurt's problem and pain more than ever. Mine has made me want to really give up most recently and 60 years later, but I'm hoping dr will help me today. It's weird though, in this video he's saying his sickness had been better or in remission for a year. I guess he took his life for another reason after all, maybe depression or the inability to get off of heroin. Truly hope he is resting in peace now.
@@seniorreseller I feel you brotha, I also suffer tremendously from a stomach affliction. I am praying for you, that your appointment Goes well. And you get some answers/ help.
@seniorreseller most likely heroin and depression just from trying to treat his gastrointestinal issues with heroin. I think you'll be fine as long as you're not a heroin addict. I've been diagnosed with one of the rarest liver disorders in the world and I don't think in my life I would ever come to hate doctors for being ignorant about everything and only wanting money for procedures that check nothing about my liver. They want to take out my perfectly fine gallbladder but are ignoring my completely mutated liver disorder giving me jaundice and stomach pain every day. I'm only 20 and I hope it's over soon
I feel like chronic pain changes your brain chemistry. I literally haven't been mentally the same since my chronic shoulder and gut problems 10 years ago
What he says resonates. Since I have gotten a hold on my mental health issues (general anxiety disorder, in particular), my "IBS" issues have almost entirely depleted. When I am having a rough time with my anxiety, my IBS creeps back up again. There is a pattern here and a lot of studies have shown this. From my own experience, I suspect his underlying mental health issues caused the stomach problems, not the other way around.
it goes both ways, like eat sleep workout on a consistent schedule & you'll be fine. when you can't do that bc you're homeless living between hotels or on tour like he was, sensitive types will get sick. bad relationships with terrible people will also make u physically sick no doubt.
Unusual timing as I just got medication for mental health support as my IBS-C definitely fucks with your head. Love to all those dealing with the malfunctioning guts.
I suffer from this stomach problems...... it sucks, it's like an spiral of hell, the more you feel anxious the worst the stomach gets and vice-versa, they feed from each other. Doctors still don't know how to deal with me just call this bs "Stess Chronic Gastritis" and I can't eat shit, not even "healthy food". It's probably a problem in my nervous system but I hope it gets better someday
To anyone suffering from IBS, i also did, and so other members of my family, after trying so many things, following diets prescribed by doctors and many drugs, and still having the same exact symptoms, i decided to try the Carnivore diet about one year ago, since then my IBS is totally gone and never returned. I wish i could go back in time and tell this to Kurt.
I really relate to this. I have had chronic stomach and esophagus pain for years and doctors have never been able to figure out whats wrong. They just prescribe meds and hope something will work. It really sucks.
I've been saying the same thing for years now, that doctors just call gastro issues "IBS" if none of their tests can diagnose anything. Weird to hear someone else complaining about it, I'm just used to myself 😂 I missed quite a bit of school due to stomach problems + depression/anxiety. It's so frustrating... Never finding the diagnosis but just being prescribed different meds to mask the pain. Sad that it's 28+ years later and nothing has changed about that.
Ive had stomach problems and its so true what he says about stomach doctors not knowing anything even today. They prescribe you something to treat a symptom, regardless of what additional problems this 'medication' may cause
@@avatarjosie Crohn's is rough. Make sure to rule out Celiac disease since it's manageable with a change of diet. They can test for it while they're in there checking out your ileum and what not. Whatever it is, I hope you feel better.
I couldn’t agree more with Kurt about what he says about GI doctors. I was diagnosed with gastritis, hiatal hernia, and ibs in 2014. The pain was horrible. The GI specialist honestly just put a bandaid on the problem. Functional medicine actually finds ways to cure or reverse symptoms. I know that I later found out last year that the ibs was sibo. A lot of times doctors just diagnose ibs because they honestly don’t know the problem. I commend him for dealing with that in the late 80s to early 90s. It sure would be nice if GI problems would start getting cured for a change.
The doctors even 20 years later still don't know that much. And this was a guy who was rich and could afford the best doctors. Now, it's better in the sense that there are functional doctors that often regular people can't afford.
My fiancee had stomach issues her whole life until she went to a doctor of Functional Medicine . She also has depression. The depression and stomach issue seem somehow connected (inflammation) but it's a complicated subject.
Describe your situation. I may have found a cure I have had it for 4 years. At one point it was so bad I couldn't walk but the medication I am on is working
It almost sounds like a functional medicine issue, based on what he said about it being a problem with his nervous system/psychosomatic. Diagnosis (Netflix) did an episode on a girl who has a similar problem. That girl most likely has a functional issue, meaning that there isn’t an external cause or disease for it-it’s a problem with the nervous system. Some doctors mistakenly explained it early on as being “in her head,” and that completely turned the patient and her parents off, as they thought she was being called crazy or a hypochondriac. Not at all. Her nervous system is probably triggering the vomiting, and may have never turned off that reflex after an initial stomach ailment. I had a functional medicine issue a couple of years ago after my throat was torn up a little from intubation during an upper GI. I sing, and my voice never stopped being hoarse after that, so I was pretty upset. When I was finally evaluated by the right person, I was told that my throat damage had already healed. They said it’s similar to someone who has a leg injury but doesn’t stop limping, even after they are healed. There is nothing crazy about the limper-it could happen to anyone, and even when the person fully knows there is nothing in the tissue or bone causing it, it still takes physical therapy to fix. If that was the problem, that would have made it even harder for him to get the appropriate treatment, because it’s hard to diagnose to begin with. And there is still a lot we don’t understand about the nervous system.
I have this thing called SIBO and I also have bile reflux because my pylorus doesn't work, and bile backs up, not only in my stomach but sometimes it burns my throat. I have been sleeping sitting up for about 3 years and I have seen at least 4 gastrointerologists and none have helped me at all. It's fucking hell on earth
I feel bad for him. I had some stomach pain too and I recently went to the doctor for it. They can't really say what it is. They just have a certain term for it. But can give medicine that barely helps me. And Him being force to eat and I feel that. I was forcing myself to eat to feel better but for whatever reason my stomach just can't digest it right it just fucks me up more. I don't really blame him for having distrust to the doctor's cause I felt the same way cause I know they don't care for me either. RIP KURT.
Thought about him recently because I'm a musician going through similar stomach issues. Was just diagnosed with an ulcer amongst other damages from stomach acid after 2 years of doctor's appointments. When he said something along the lines of "most gastrointestinal doctors don't know anything about stomach issues, they just give you different medicine till it works" that hit me hard. The docs did everything they could to not put a scope down my throat, for two years I was on different medicatioin that eventually led to kidney damage. Damnit, sad shit.
@@paulkoeberle461 wow, 1 year later. I’d say I’m about 95%. I’ll never be 100%. I have gall stones that built up during all of that, but that’s pretty much what I have leftover. I took almost a whole year away from alcohol, red meat, sugar, lactose. The only thing I didn’t avoid that I should have was Coffee. I drink lightly now, my diet is much cleaner as well. One of the biggest factors of these issues that we don’t realize is stress, and it directly correlates to musicians lives. Whether it’s during the unsure times of a starving artist, or the hectic times of a successful one, there needs to be more attention on stress and anxiety management in the arts and entertainment industry. A lot of people drown their stress in alcohol and drugs, which is the perfect recipe for what happened to Kurt. I was lucky to catch it early and treat it. I’m planning on having my gallbladder removed some time in 2022 and hopefully I’ll get close to 100%
Hey Caroline - those 3 can be a challenge because they're a bit of a vicious circle! Know that you're not alone and that it's entirely possible to recover though! On my channel I specifically help people with IBS start to recover from an eastern perspective (i had it too but it's been gone for years)!
I have it too ..I have anxiety disorder , depression and IBS C and the shit backed up for days until I get hammeroids...I am not able to maintain a proper job too.Dont care about anything anymore. You are not alone my dear.A virtual hug from me.
I had IBS /IBD starting in 1990 until 1997 and remember all the trips to the doctors and E/R explaining my condition with doctors looking at me like I had two heads when I would explain alternating bouts of constipation and diarrhea. I finally got a diagnosis of ulcerative proctitus , but just at that moment in time I had licked it by spending 5k in herbs over the course of 2 years with an herbalist. Looking back with what I know now, I firmly believe this is an issue of not having the right gut bacteria due to too much starchy diet. Of course not everyone that has a starchy diet will develop IBS, but I do believe it’s bacterial in nature. Fasting on protein shakes for months along with vitamin D supplements I firmly believe will go a long way to curing people, and then consuming your own home made fermented vegetables, and of course cutting out a great deal of carbs for good
It’s weird how explains the depression and stomach problems to a tee! I think my stomach problems/pain go hand in hand. Feels like I’m about to have a heart attack sometimes
I have Barrett’s esophagus. It will be esophageal cancer at some point… The pain is unbearable, I’m typing this while dry heaving blood. I also got into opioids really bad hut I’m on the methadone program now
I’ve had this for two years straight. Doctors were absolutely useless, even supposedly the best of them. It’s only when I took it upon myself to fully understand the issue and experiment with my diet for approximately 1 year, was I able to fix it, no thanks to the medical system. I’ve been symptom free for 1.5 but what Kurt said resonated a lot.
I am.here cuz I just watched the doc. I am a musician who's been dealing with chronic stomach /gastro pain for the last two years searching for answers. My situation is different than his but I can relate to so mucbof what he and everyone on here is saying. I really want to go back to the way I was 2 years ago. It would be the most amazing thing! Please if anyone has any suggestions let me know!
I totally agree with him that so many doctors havent got a cunting clue about virtually anything. I have had a different chronic condition for 20 years and after 10 i just gave up on doctors. I refuse to see them now.
I have pain around and my throat because of bronchitis I think I'm struggling with that for long time every time I get contact with dust my situation become worse problems in breathing and coughing doesn't stop until I vomits my stomach now looks bigger and it's all started in 2016 since then my life becomes hell. I have cough which is in solid form sometimes it comes out when I'm coughing or talking. I want freedom from that no one wants to live with diseases. I can feel Kurt's problem.
I went through that for years because when I was 18 I had a bleeding ulcer but they didn't know it was caused by H pylori until I was older than 26 years old . And the problem is by then I had been so overdosed with antibiotics for mononucleosis and other things that I had stopped doing antibiotics because I was trying to heal from all the damage they did . I had that evil H pylori for decades and you can have it almost totally eradicated and it could grow and get worse again and that's what happened to me . I know exactly what he means about the heartbeat and the stomach and it makes it hard to inhale and sometimes you get pain that goes right out through the spine .... that's how bad it is .
So sad to hear if you bothered to actually pay attention, you'd know that he didn't even have the stomach problem for a year before he killed himself. He had found the right medicine.
saddest part is that's not all he also has back pain because of guitar belts and also his voice in 1994 was almost gone in a concert (check heart shaped box munich 1994)
I am dealing with this now. it goes away for awhile but it i cant sleep. I am ok . i could not end it. But i do think about it. I just wanted to let anyone if they are suffering that I understand. We will be ok!
That's they way I felt when I had 3 inflamed ulcers the pain was so bad your crying if you ate or did anything. I was in the hospital for a week on morphine. Very good but addictive. I was on like on 5 different medicines. Stomach problems are very tricky till this day.
Could you please tell me what year and month the second interview [the one with only audio and Kurt's picture in B&W] of this very interesting video took place? Do you also know the source? Thanks for uploading and sharing.
It really feel for people who live in countries that don’t offer free healthcare or have enough money to see a good doctor or have tests done, it took me years to find what was wrong and couldn’t imagine not being able to find out what was wrong
Chronic pain does horrible things to your mental health.
He definitely had depression that's why I related with him and liked him so much when I was a teenager. At least one major suicide attempt before the real one. But conspiracy theorists always have to chime in. I wish anyone with a chronic condition all the best and hope they find ways to lessen the pain.
Nick B. Yes it does
Detective J
I’ve been dealing with a stomach ailment for about a month now. I’ll tell you one thing, I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. I have a history of mental illness and just when it started getting better and I stopped smoking I get hit with this. My grades are plummeting, my family doesn’t believe me, I haven’t eaten well since this started. I don’t know what to do.
Detective J Thanks for the reply. So id say I’ve always had a poor stomach but especially the past 3 years. However, that was pretty mild to moderate. This past month has been very severe. I constantly feel like I’m being stabbed in the stomach. Every so often I get very bad nausea. Constipation. Loss of appetite. It’s been bad. I’ve gotten this medicine that has done jack shit. I’m going to the doctor again tomorrow.

Chronic pain is so hard to explain . If you have it , you know what I mean . You reach a point where you will try anything that might help ... just to make it stop for awhile . So sad to hear him talk about it .
Rest peacefully Kurt .Peace from NB , Canada

Same bro it sucks ): it’s like a constant storm of pain physical or mental
I have depression and horrible acid reflux/indigestion. Very interesting
I don’t agree with Kurts drug use but it is understandable.He was forced to suffer constant stomach pains and his doctors wouldn’t give him anything for it up until 1993.Kurt was stuck with a tuff choice.If he didn’t use heroin he wouldn’t have become addicted but then he would have been in chronic pain.It was almost like he was forced into drug use.It’s a tragic example of what some people will do to escape chronic pain.
I 100% agree and am an IBS sufferer and recovering h addict. I understand what he was going through.
it was heroin he was using to treat it since nothing else helped him anymore. He says the doctors were a scam and they didn't even find out what he had specifically
Me too man. I have horrible anxiety that makes my stomach feel horrible. It's nice to see someone I look up to talking about it.
I ALWAYS tell people IBS is ALL mental health. A calm mind is a calm gut! Try taking an SSRI and see if it helps. I take Paxil and it finally calmed my mind which in turn calmed my gut. How are you feeling today?
I finally found medication after 10 years yesterday😢
I hope he's finally at peace and free from all earthly pains. Fly high Kurt!
I’ve been so worried ab this for a while and seeing this and everyone’s comments really helps me know that I’m not alone with this pain I have to deal with.

I also feel like Kurt. I don't care if I'm alive. I didn't choose to be born and deal with this for so long.
@@QUINTUSMAXIMUSit's not just pain. It's constant lethargy from malabsorption, etc. Electrolyte imbalance, etc.
Oh God, I feel horrific for him. I have IBS and I know exactly what he is talking about the pain is real, I’ve had 4 kids naturally, no pain meds and this pain is comparable at times. It truly makes you wanna die, thankfully I was FINALLY put on nortriptyline! Literally saved my life! I know what he means when he said people get tired of hearing you complain about it, just go about your day wanting to die, makes you tough! ☹️poor thing
No they told you that you have ibs
That's a anti depressant right?
Up.
To all of You. Trust me or not, drink the most pure coconut milk like about 5 dl per day, spread in the whole day, for at least 7 days. And avoid, really, cow milk, gluten and white sugar the most as you can.
And thank me, I hope, later. I've suffered from it almost 6 years, deeply, after a FUCKING PTSD, and I write this after this 1 week of try. Hope that you'll write me a good new soon. Much love. Here to live. Not to leave.
@@harrisonwilbanks2380 well , after years of taking this devil drug I take back what I said. It’s horrible. Just quit last month after gaining 37 pounds... what do you suggest?
I have IBS reflux and gastritis and what he is describing sounds exactly like gastritis not ibs
But really
Rip kurt I understand your pain brother and can relate to you and your music so much. You were and are the best at what you did. You will never be forgotten and your music will live on forever.
the last great rock star
I love his voice.. he's so beautiful
I can’t believe how smart this guy was . My first time looking into him and I’m just so shocked .
ima believer he was more than just the music man. the only person i felt a connection too like his words were my thoughts and he was the first and only i heard speak with the same soul amd heart as mine. i looked up to him like a older brother.
he died at only age 27 but is so mature and smart with so much wisdom!
TheRoshan Not much wisdom in a shotgun blast.
This is the first interview I have watched of him and I thought the same thing.
So sad...he’s describing what true pain is. He dealt with it for so many years.
So many of us suffering from anxiety and stress that wreaks havoc on our system
Thank heaven someone is intelligent to recognise suffering with compassion

I totally agree when Kurt says that "most GI doctors don't know anything about stomach diseases". I've been suffering from Eosinophilic Enteritis for 5 years and doctors in my country have absolutely no idea how to treat this horrible disease. The pain is the worst part ... It completely destroys your mental stability :'(
I understand all to well😔👍
Going through something similar right now and it’s absolute living hell
I understand this all too well.
I’ve had Ibs for 6 years now it’s a truly horrible thing and people don’t realise how painful it can be
Not anymore ? How did you fix it please
@@geo1456 I haven’t, I’ve just had to put up with it unfortunately
A red irritation in his stomach would suggest he had gastritis as well as some type of peptic ulcer, on top of his IBS which I also suffer with, all three, as a matter of fact and it makes me feel incredibly suicidal. Doctors 20 years on after Kurts death still can’t identify the actual cause of IBS and still can’t treat it. I agree with him 100% when he calls the Gastro doctors “a scam” cause they don’t know what they are doing! 😂
I dont think so. I think he had ibs or chrons.
@@kadebostany934 no it definitely sounds like gastritis cause gastritis causes red inflammation in the stomach lining.
Can I ask how your mental health is?
if u have IBS-D try a low dose of opioids , it slows everything down works 100%
@@kadebostany934 he said IBS
Everyday is a struggle. Last thing that comes to your mind in bed before you sleep (that is, when you are able to sleep): "hope I dont wake up tomorrow so I dont have to go through a whole day of suffering." Then you wake up next morning, and all the misery and pain returns.
Dude I lived like this for 25 years. Brought me to the brink many times.
I feel your pain. I have had this for only 3 years and want to blow my brains out
Were you born with it?
What kept you going?
I'm on a 10yr roll of stomach pain that wakes me up at 1am every mourning,,doctors waste of time,,understand the struggle ,I never get a day off,,,but I'm to stubborn and got to far to die now,,hope your still going too
@@sarmcg52 you might want to keep trying doctors, it's probably not ibs if it regularly wakes you up, it could be something more treatable. Either way, good luck
He suffered from a real PHYSICAL pain, no doubt. I want to pull my hair out when people pat you on the back and say its anxiety or depression. May he rest in peace. I'm so sorry Kurt.
Eran ambos amigo, dolor fisico y mental el q tenia kurt cobain. Yo sufro de depresión y me relaciono con su comportamiento triste y decaido.
I feel his struggle. Got UC and it's quite honestly a living hell. Went from working out 5 to 6 days a week to doubling over in pain walking across the block
It appears 18 people haven't got IBS or IBD, maybe if they experienced it, they'd know exactly what kurt is talking about
I have had it for 3 years. It's a living hell
I've dealt with both and I'm on medication for it. I can't imagine having to deal with it on the road with so many concerts throughout the year!!!
@Don't Subscribe Eating is also almost completely impossible. I literally lost so much weight in a matter of months that i went from slightly overweight to underweight sick looking person cause i couldnt eat almost at all. Thats also the period where i get heavy into benzos and weed etc... So i can relate to what Kurt is saying cause the pain would really go away when you are high.
I remember the having the same symptoms on September 29, 2023. Luckily, with the massive doses of vitamin c, and ginger tea, the pain and the stomach problems went away within 2 days. The difference is that this happened during the early hours of that fateful morning.
He's definitely right on doctors being a scam. Doctors perscribe to get rich. Now few good doctors still exist u know the one's that are actually concerned
Damn straight
They are not a scam. The reality is modern medicine is limited, but he is right that some pretend they know or aren't straight with you that they don't have an answer. One doctor was straight with me, and I appreciated that. He didn't have a real answer, and that's frustrating, but I hate it when doctors act all arrogant and can't do much for you.
@@younghirsch In South Korea, where I live doctors, actually take the time to talk to you and find out what they can do, but in terms of gastroenterologists, they still don't really have answers in many cases no matter where they live.
@@younghirsch They are scams in Europe too .
@@younghirsch hahaha, good one!
I was admitted to the hospital for 2 months a couple of years ago due to awful stomach pain, they did lots of tests and found inflammation in my bowel and it was so so painful! I really feel for what he went through! They’ve given me morphine 3 times in the past as I managed to get to the hospital but just sat on the floor in tears. It’s awful ❤️
Hope ur doing better
A few years ago I suffered from intense and relentless sciatic pain from a pinched nerve between a herniated disc in my spine. The only way I could sleep was with heavy pain killers which would make be nauseated. So my choice was back pain or feeling sick to my stomach. When you are experiencing unrelenting pain like that for weeks on end it fucks with your mind. You become depressed, then angry. I can see how someone experiencing that for years might become suicidal. Luckily my back issues eventually got better through self care. I can totally empathize with someone dealing with pain issues.
I am glad to read that your health improved!
Living with pain or a chronic illness is so hard . In the end if it never stops you will do anything . So many end up addicts or dead. On my way there
Hope you're doing alright man. I know exactly what you're going through. Been dealing with it for 9 years come this summer. Keep fighting the good fight as long as you can
Keep as strong as you can for as long as you can and know that you are loved
Robert Flanagan fuck ibs!! Dude please don’t say “on my way there”! Just stay alive I have ibs too, I have it since 5 years it literally fucked up my whole life, all the people I know left me! But I don’t care cause I’m already suffering with this shit, listen I’m not a strong girl, I cry myself to sleep and I cry like every fucking single day because of it! So if you’ll ever read my comment I hope you stay alive! I’ll be here for you if you need someone to talk to! Just don’t do anything that hurt you cause I know how it feels to have ibs 💔:(
I know how you feel. I have had chronic stomach pain for 3 years and have thought MANY times about blowing my brains out. Try to hang in there though. At least as long as you can
Been having this issue since 9th grade so bad to the point I had to leave school I remember I was outside always with my friends to being in my room all day can't even go out without having stomach pains so I'm there sitting in their restroom for 30 mins I'm 21 now and I still have this problem ever since It started happening i been wanting to off myself..
you know your chronic pain is a huge issues once you just give up on everything, just so you can feel better for a little bit. it’s a relentless cycle. i’m probably gonna take the easy way out here soon, but if you’re reading this keep fighting i guess or whatever am expert would say
I feel your pain brotha 😰 I hope your still here. It’s not fair what your being made to suffer through along with others, like me. Love you bro. Please keep fighting! ❤❤❤❤
I have this problem for the last 8 years. It's like a burning rotten feeling like you ate bad food and it doesn't go away. I tried changing my diet. Less gluten helped very little. Only thing that finally worked was kratom. I still get it, but very rarely like once every week or two. I used to get it everyday.
Try aloe vera juice or l glutamine or beef gelatin ,those things helped with the burning to me ,also licorice root capsules or slippery elm
The interviewer in the first clip was not listening. He asks him the same question he already answered. He had so many good questions he could of asked in regards to his stomach. Makes me mad some interviewers are so simple and DONT LISTEN
The sad thing is I’m 99% certain that the “drugs“ he talked about that fixed it were not the prescription kind, or at least not in the traditional sense.
Candida/IBS issues are a vicious cycle between brain and body so I can imagine something like heroin would be one of the few things that could break the cycle and appear to provide temporary relief.
I’m experiencing the same thing, it hurts so bad. Just hearing him talk about it I finally feel understood.
:( ❤️
I am also. Hope you’re okay
A great watch, I have had crippling stomach issues for over 4 years now, gone from 14 stone down to less than 10 and its a battle. Just got to keep on fighting and trying to get it sorted
I have SAME issues and I'm in constant, terrible pain. Severe scoliosis which has been giving me pain for at least 10 years. As I've gotten older, the digestive system is now affected. I'm on no pain meds. God bless him.
I miss you Kurt 💔
I’m happy your not in pain anymore 😢
I agree. While I am sad he is gone I have the same thing he had and
NO ONE should have to deal with this. To be honest some days are so bad I think about doing what he did to
My heart goes out the people that suffer from these things can won't go away.
I think based on everything I've read - and I'm just one millenial who was only 1 when Kurt died - it seems like Kurt's stomach issues could have been related to Heroin withdrawal. Kurt started using heroin around the late 80s which is conveniently enough around the exact same time his stomach issues started to become debilitating. Stomach and GI issues can be related directly to withdrawals from opiates and I think this was just something he conjured up in his head to excuse his drug problem. He may have legitimately had IBS - but it's awful funny to me the timing of all of it, and I know stress can be a big factor there. Remember however that drugs are not a joke - if you're active in addiction please remember people love you and you can beat it if you want to. If you're in recovery or remission you are doing great work and I'm super proud of you. Be nice to yourselves.
For anyone struggling with IBS, first thing to treat is mental health, but it helps to avoid coffee and alcohol, Include pre and probiotics, and avoid food that causes inflammation
his pain was really bad. it was sad how many procedures he had and how many doctors he saw who couldn't help him. I have pain too. the pain never goes away, and no one can fix it. it is making me miserable. I understand how Kurt felt
I wish he had the right care 😕 😪 He is so honest about what he was going through..RIP
If you have GI issues, when he says "they don't know" hits so fucking differently.
I have IBS, which I think was just an easier diagnosis for them, and I know what it can do to your mental health. It’s frustrating and hard to live a normal life
This is the first I ever knew of this. I feel this man’s pain.
Funny that people are still viewing this. Saw you post your comment just yesterday. I'm here because I have a gastro dr appt in an hour. I remembered hearing about his stomach issues after he committed suicide. I've always had digestive issues because of a birth defect with my esophagus being connected to my lungs instead of my stomach when I was born and they did emergency surgery at 7 hours old but for the last month, I've been saying that I really understand Kurt's problem and pain more than ever. Mine has made me want to really give up most recently and 60 years later, but I'm hoping dr will help me today. It's weird though, in this video he's saying his sickness had been better or in remission for a year. I guess he took his life for another reason after all, maybe depression or the inability to get off of heroin. Truly hope he is resting in peace now.
@@seniorreseller I feel you brotha, I also suffer tremendously from a stomach affliction. I am praying for you, that your appointment Goes well. And you get some answers/ help.
@seniorreseller most likely heroin and depression just from trying to treat his gastrointestinal issues with heroin. I think you'll be fine as long as you're not a heroin addict. I've been diagnosed with one of the rarest liver disorders in the world and I don't think in my life I would ever come to hate doctors for being ignorant about everything and only wanting money for procedures that check nothing about my liver. They want to take out my perfectly fine gallbladder but are ignoring my completely mutated liver disorder giving me jaundice and stomach pain every day. I'm only 20 and I hope it's over soon
I feel like chronic pain changes your brain chemistry. I literally haven't been mentally the same since my chronic shoulder and gut problems 10 years ago
Knee arthritis and dislocated shoulder here, I'm a shell of my former self.
What he says resonates. Since I have gotten a hold on my mental health issues (general anxiety disorder, in particular), my "IBS" issues have almost entirely depleted. When I am having a rough time with my anxiety, my IBS creeps back up again. There is a pattern here and a lot of studies have shown this. From my own experience, I suspect his underlying mental health issues caused the stomach problems, not the other way around.
makes sense as the stomach is the second brain
I tell people this ALL THE TIME!!!! A CALM MIND EQUALS A CALM GUT!!
Can I ask what you take for your GAD?
IBS has nothng to do with ur stomach as its ur colon that spasms
it goes both ways, like eat sleep workout on a consistent schedule & you'll be fine. when you can't do that bc you're homeless living between hotels or on tour like he was, sensitive types will get sick. bad relationships with terrible people will also make u physically sick no doubt.
Unusual timing as I just got medication for mental health support as my IBS-C definitely fucks with your head. Love to all those dealing with the malfunctioning guts.
I suffer from this stomach problems...... it sucks, it's like an spiral of hell, the more you feel anxious the worst the stomach gets and vice-versa, they feed from each other. Doctors still don't know how to deal with me just call this bs "Stess Chronic Gastritis" and I can't eat shit, not even "healthy food". It's probably a problem in my nervous system but I hope it gets better someday
My sister has IBS and it's no Joke she doesn't have much of a life due to the IBS it's very sad & Painful !!!! LOVE MY SISTER & KURT ...
I've had IBS for over 3 years now. I can barely leave the house
To anyone suffering from IBS, i also did, and so other members of my family, after trying so many things, following diets prescribed by doctors and many drugs, and still having the same exact symptoms, i decided to try the Carnivore diet about one year ago, since then my IBS is totally gone and never returned. I wish i could go back in time and tell this to Kurt.
I really relate to this. I have had chronic stomach and esophagus pain for years and doctors have never been able to figure out whats wrong. They just prescribe meds and hope something will work. It really sucks.
I've been saying the same thing for years now, that doctors just call gastro issues "IBS" if none of their tests can diagnose anything. Weird to hear someone else complaining about it, I'm just used to myself 😂 I missed quite a bit of school due to stomach problems + depression/anxiety. It's so frustrating... Never finding the diagnosis but just being prescribed different meds to mask the pain. Sad that it's 28+ years later and nothing has changed about that.
Your lucky you get something for masking the pain.
I think he had the same thing i do, abdominal migraines. Been dealing with it for 16 years now, and I have no idea how I’ve survived...
Bella.
Ive had stomach problems and its so true what he says about stomach doctors not knowing anything even today. They prescribe you something to treat a symptom, regardless of what additional problems this 'medication' may cause
Makes me wonder if he had Crohn’s disease. I had those symptoms as well and that was my diagnosis
For sure it was Crohn's ,poor guy
Last year when I was 15 got a foot of my bowel removed and still have anxiety from it. It really sucks
blh 811 Texans It does! They removed about 10 inches of my small intestines back in 2001. Hang in there, they’re not all bad days 💙
I’m hoping I get diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. I feel the same as Kurt did with chronic stomach pain
@@avatarjosie Crohn's is rough. Make sure to rule out Celiac disease since it's manageable with a change of diet. They can test for it while they're in there checking out your ileum and what not. Whatever it is, I hope you feel better.
I couldn’t agree more with Kurt about what he says about GI doctors. I was diagnosed with gastritis, hiatal hernia, and ibs in 2014. The pain was horrible. The GI specialist honestly just put a bandaid on the problem. Functional medicine actually finds ways to cure or reverse symptoms. I know that I later found out last year that the ibs was sibo. A lot of times doctors just diagnose ibs because they honestly don’t know the problem. I commend him for dealing with that in the late 80s to early 90s. It sure would be nice if GI problems would start getting cured for a change.
I have IBS and depression as well. It’s pretty much just hell.
The doctors even 20 years later still don't know that much. And this was a guy who was rich and could afford the best doctors. Now, it's better in the sense that there are functional doctors that often regular people can't afford.
Mental illness does chronic things to your stomach and body. Once my depression and anxiety was gone my IBS went away too.
His IBS makes me believe he committed suicide and not murdered by someone...(also suffer from IBS )
I need whatever kurt was taking now.
When did you develop IBS? What are your symptoms?
My fiancee had stomach issues her whole life until she went to a doctor of Functional Medicine
. She also has depression. The depression and stomach issue seem somehow connected (inflammation) but it's a complicated subject.
But I hope she's healthy and clear
You will never know until it happens to you
🎯🎯😭
I can relate so much...having this "disease" for 15 years
Describe your situation. I may have found a cure
I have had it for 4 years. At one point it was so bad I couldn't walk but the medication I am on is working
It almost sounds like a functional medicine issue, based on what he said about it being a problem with his nervous system/psychosomatic. Diagnosis (Netflix) did an episode on a girl who has a similar problem. That girl most likely has a functional issue, meaning that there isn’t an external cause or disease for it-it’s a problem with the nervous system. Some doctors mistakenly explained it early on as being “in her head,” and that completely turned the patient and her parents off, as they thought she was being called crazy or a hypochondriac. Not at all. Her nervous system is probably triggering the vomiting, and may have never turned off that reflex after an initial stomach ailment.
I had a functional medicine issue a couple of years ago after my throat was torn up a little from intubation during an upper GI. I sing, and my voice never stopped being hoarse after that, so I was pretty upset. When I was finally evaluated by the right person, I was told that my throat damage had already healed. They said it’s similar to someone who has a leg injury but doesn’t stop limping, even after they are healed. There is nothing crazy about the limper-it could happen to anyone, and even when the person fully knows there is nothing in the tissue or bone causing it, it still takes physical therapy to fix.
If that was the problem, that would have made it even harder for him to get the appropriate treatment, because it’s hard to diagnose to begin with. And there is still a lot we don’t understand about the nervous system.
no that girl had a vascular compression in her abdomen, Diagnosis got it wrong.
@@kathleencollins8954 Oh, wow!! I’m glad they finally figured it out.
Crying for him and for myself
I have this thing called SIBO and I also have bile reflux because my pylorus doesn't work, and bile backs up, not only in my stomach but sometimes it burns my throat. I have been sleeping sitting up for about 3 years and I have seen at least 4 gastrointerologists and none have helped me at all. It's fucking hell on earth
I feel bad for him. I had some stomach pain too and I recently went to the doctor for it. They can't really say what it is. They just have a certain term for it. But can give medicine that barely helps me. And Him being force to eat and I feel that. I was forcing myself to eat to feel better but for whatever reason my stomach just can't digest it right it just fucks me up more. I don't really blame him for having distrust to the doctor's cause I felt the same way cause I know they don't care for me either. RIP KURT.
Thought about him recently because I'm a musician going through similar stomach issues. Was just diagnosed with an ulcer amongst other damages from stomach acid after 2 years of doctor's appointments. When he said something along the lines of "most gastrointestinal doctors don't know anything about stomach issues, they just give you different medicine till it works" that hit me hard. The docs did everything they could to not put a scope down my throat, for two years I was on different medicatioin that eventually led to kidney damage. Damnit, sad shit.
Try licorice root capsules man ,it's good for ulcers ,also aloe vera juice helps a lot , seriously,or L glutamine powder
Did you ever get better? Have you been tested for h pylori bacteria? This can be the underlying issue for most stomach ulcers.
@@paulkoeberle461 wow, 1 year later. I’d say I’m about 95%. I’ll never be 100%. I have gall stones that built up during all of that, but that’s pretty much what I have leftover. I took almost a whole year away from alcohol, red meat, sugar, lactose. The only thing I didn’t avoid that I should have was Coffee. I drink lightly now, my diet is much cleaner as well.
One of the biggest factors of these issues that we don’t realize is stress, and it directly correlates to musicians lives. Whether it’s during the unsure times of a starving artist, or the hectic times of a successful one, there needs to be more attention on stress and anxiety management in the arts and entertainment industry. A lot of people drown their stress in alcohol and drugs, which is the perfect recipe for what happened to Kurt. I was lucky to catch it early and treat it.
I’m planning on having my gallbladder removed some time in 2022 and hopefully I’ll get close to 100%
Fuuuuck...from the PPI right ??
Hah I have anxiety depression & IBS too :/
Hey Caroline - those 3 can be a challenge because they're a bit of a vicious circle! Know that you're not alone and that it's entirely possible to recover though! On my channel I specifically help people with IBS start to recover from an eastern perspective (i had it too but it's been gone for years)!
I have it too ..I have anxiety disorder , depression and IBS C and the shit backed up for days until I get hammeroids...I am not able to maintain a proper job too.Dont care about anything anymore. You are not alone my dear.A virtual hug from me.
Me too.
I had IBS /IBD starting in 1990 until 1997 and remember all the trips to the doctors and E/R explaining my condition with doctors looking at me like I had two heads when I would explain alternating bouts of constipation and diarrhea. I finally got a diagnosis of ulcerative proctitus , but just at that moment in time I had licked it by spending 5k in herbs over the course of 2 years with an herbalist. Looking back with what I know now, I firmly believe this is an issue of not having the right gut bacteria due to too much starchy diet. Of course not everyone that has a starchy diet will develop IBS, but I do believe it’s bacterial in nature. Fasting on protein shakes for months along with vitamin D supplements I firmly believe will go a long way to curing people, and then consuming your own home made fermented vegetables, and of course cutting out a great deal of carbs for good
If I don't eat carbs I lose weight and I am underweight
i have had “stomach migraines” since i was 5 i am now 34. symptoms sound similar to mine. specialist are now linking it to the nervous system.
It’s weird how explains the depression and stomach problems to a tee! I think my stomach problems/pain go hand in hand. Feels like I’m about to have a heart attack sometimes
He had it right when he said it had to do with his head. His stomach problems were related to his anxiety/OCD/depression symptoms. I guarantee it!
Really do feel bad for his Situation.... fame crushed this fine man.
Stomach pain is worse then death
I have Barrett’s esophagus. It will be esophageal cancer at some point…
The pain is unbearable, I’m typing this while dry heaving blood.
I also got into opioids really bad hut I’m on the methadone program now
Sad see the picture and hear his voice. Cobain was just a young kid
I’ve had this for two years straight. Doctors were absolutely useless, even supposedly the best of them. It’s only when I took it upon myself to fully understand the issue and experiment with my diet for approximately 1 year, was I able to fix it, no thanks to the medical system. I’ve been symptom free for 1.5 but what Kurt said resonated a lot.
I am.here cuz I just watched the doc. I am a musician who's been dealing with chronic stomach /gastro pain for the last two years searching for answers. My situation is different than his but I can relate to so mucbof what he and everyone on here is saying. I really want to go back to the way I was 2 years ago. It would be the most amazing thing! Please if anyone has any suggestions let me know!
Poor guy. I have had the same problem. People like us have extremely acidic bodies. Eating soft foods and getting check ups from doctors is crucial.
Im 19 but have only felt stomach pain last year and its slewly geting worse should i get checked?
I totally agree with him that so many doctors havent got a cunting clue about virtually anything. I have had a different chronic condition for 20 years and after 10 i just gave up on doctors. I refuse to see them now.
I have pain around and my throat because of bronchitis I think I'm struggling with that for long time every time I get contact with dust my situation become worse problems in breathing and coughing doesn't stop until I vomits my stomach now looks bigger and it's all started in 2016 since then my life becomes hell. I have cough which is in solid form sometimes it comes out when I'm coughing or talking. I want freedom from that no one wants to live with diseases. I can feel Kurt's problem.
I went through that for years because when I was 18 I had a bleeding ulcer but they didn't know it was caused by H pylori until I was older than 26 years old .
And the problem is by then I had been so overdosed with antibiotics for mononucleosis and other things that I had stopped doing antibiotics because I was trying to heal from all the damage they did .
I had that evil H pylori for decades and you can have it almost totally eradicated and it could grow and get worse again and that's what happened to me .
I know exactly what he means about the heartbeat and the stomach and it makes it hard to inhale and sometimes you get pain that goes right out through the spine .... that's how bad it is .
so sad to hear if people bothered to take time to actually watch this then they'd have an actual understanding on why he took his life in 1994
@Philip Love which stemmed from his IBS, he says how he found the right "medicine" finally and IBS causes severe depression
Check out soaked in bleach, then re-assess if u think he killed himself...
@@jonnyfavors7585 soaked in bleach is the biggest crock of bullshit ever released.
So sad to hear if you bothered to actually pay attention, you'd know that he didn't even have the stomach problem for a year before he killed himself. He had found the right medicine.
saddest part is that's not all
he also has back pain because of guitar belts and also his voice in 1994 was almost gone in a concert (check heart shaped box munich 1994)
Nortriptyline helped drastically with my long term IBS-D
That's a very old antidepressant,my doctor won't prescribe to me ,fuck .I am stuck with Mirtazapine or Lexapro
@@SRBOMBONICA86 If it makes you feel better it was only good for the IBS ... I felt pretty crap on it
@@mitchelljack1590 he had Crohn's you should get checked too IBS D isn't supposed to be systemic in symptoms.
The only thing that worked for me is diet and exercise, change your diet, eliminate foods that make you ill, and exercise everyday if possible.

Things aren’t any better now, Kurt.
This is crazy I feel the same way RIP

IT IS HELL
I'm on a 10yr roll ,of been woke up every morning at 1am in stomach pain,,its hard going,,but no point giving up now I guess,,,,♡
Oh my god he is right on the money! I am struggling with the exact same ting and the doctors have no idea what to do.
That's they way I felt when I had 3 inflamed ulcers the pain was so bad your crying if you ate or did anything. I was in the hospital for a week on morphine. Very good but addictive. I was on like on 5 different medicines. Stomach problems are very tricky till this day.
Could you please tell me what year and month the second interview [the one with only audio and Kurt's picture in B&W] of this very interesting video took place? Do you also know the source?
Thanks for uploading and sharing.
It’s sad, but I’m sure the cold embrace of death was relieving for this poor man.
This is my stomach like this for the last three years
man, this fucking pain.... this is so sad
I understand this complete
How long have you had IBS?
Poor Kurt. I know the pain he feels and worse. Wish I knew what drug he was given.
Please tell me what medicine he was given. Please.
It really feel for people who live in countries that don’t offer free healthcare or have enough money to see a good doctor or have tests done, it took me years to find what was wrong and couldn’t imagine not being able to find out what was wrong
I was told that IBS never used to exist in Asia or Africa, now it does apparently.
Is the second video available with out the background music? Trying to use it for a project and would highly appreciate it!
Poor Kurt :'(
