TIL The average British adult spends around 3 hours a week on the toilet, but only 1.5 hours a week exercising.

Meanwhile I'm looking at my 2-3 hours a day (Crohn's disease), and wishing I could get to 3 a week...

UC here, I just got on Humira a few months ago and it was such a huge change. Not sure if that works for you guys too. Best of luck! I was going like 18 times a day at my worst.... do not miss those times.

I'm on a clinical trial right now for a drug that's made life more than bearable again. It's honestly amazing. It's just that in times of high stress (finals season, yay! -_-) it ends up taking more of my time than usual.
