Ibs & Meditation

Im extremely new to reddit and am still learning the ropes. But I had a serious question I doubt has been asked here before since what I have is very under-diagnosed.

Anyways, ive suffered from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) for the past 4-5 years of my life. Ive tried many thing like the low FODMAP diet, medication, etc. yet it still continues to be a daily part of my life. I suffer from extreme abdominal pain quite frequently and at times have been ready to end it all.

My question was: Has anybody in this group suffered from this, and has meditation helped them?

I can slightly relieve the pain when I try to think about as little as possible and live in the moment but thats hard because I have severe anxiety, depression, and ADHD.
