ABOUT
My Other Mind is an online platform for teens and adults dealing with chronic and undiagnosed stomach disorders like Rumination Syndrome, Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome, Gastroparesis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and more.
It isn't easy for people with rare illnesses and chronic pain to navigate institutions like the health system, the school system, the justice system and more. Due to systemic racism, these systems get especially hard -at times dangerous- for low income families of color to navigate.
​
MISSION
My Other Mind hopes to:
​
-
Build a community of teens and adults living with rare gut disorders and their families
-
Provide resources and care for the community
-
Raise awareness in order to fund treatment and research of the microbiome and gut/brain connection.
We want you to know that you are not alone, and to not feel limited by your (or your loved one’s) illness– you/ (they) can still live an amazing life as we work to find cures!
​
We are not trained professionals, so please continue to consult with a doctor regarding your symptoms.
GOALS
-
Create a fund, platform and host annual events for teens and adults with rare gut disorders
-
Build a research and care facility to ensure the longevity of programs and resources
