Welcome, Aly!
First of all, I can honestly say the fiber has made a huge difference for me. The key, though, is to start slowly! I started at one gram of soluble fiber supplement per day, and now I'm pretty stable at nine grams. (I'm an IBS-D.)
Second, sounds like you have a lot of anxiety about your IBS. If you can afford it, think about getting the self-hypnosis program. It has had a positive effect for a lot of people.
Next time you post, if it's about IBS, put it in the IBS Diet forum, okay? We tend to discuss all things IBS over there, whereas the Living Room is mostly just chitchat unrelated to IBS.
Keep coming back, and feel better soon!
