There was this one camping trip. We were in the middle of the forest. I woke up in the middle of the night with the worst stomach cramps. I had no choice but to run outside the tent and find a secluded spot. But it was so dark and I was so scared of wild animals. I was in such a rush that I almost tripped several times. It was a truly horrible experience.
Some might be based on true experiences. People often share their real - life ordeals with diarrhea to raise awareness or just to let others know what they've been through. But it's also possible that some are exaggerated for the sake of making a more 'horror - like' story.
One horror story could be someone who ate at a place recommended by BuzzFeed and then got really bad diarrhea. They might have had to deal with sudden and uncontrollable bowel movements in an inconvenient place, like on a long bus ride. It was extremely embarrassing and uncomfortable.
One diarrhea horror story is when I was on a long road trip. There were very few rest stops around. Suddenly, I got a really bad stomachache and diarrhea hit me hard. I was sweating and praying that we would find a place soon. It was so uncomfortable and embarrassing as I was with friends.
Food poisoning is a common one. Eating contaminated food like undercooked meat or spoiled dairy products can lead to it. For example, if you have a burger with meat that wasn't cooked well, it can cause your stomach to go haywire.
We can learn the importance of proper hygiene. Diarrhea is often caused by poor sanitation. In these stories, perhaps some were due to contaminated food or water. If people were more careful about washing hands and ensuring food safety, many cases could be prevented.
My cousin was at a big family picnic. He ate a whole lot of different things that didn't quite mix well in his stomach. When diarrhea hit him, he thought he could make it to the house bathroom. But as he was running, he let out a little squeak with every step. By the time he got to the bathroom, everyone at the picnic was in stitches, including himself once he was done.
There was a story where someone trusted a BuzzFeed list of 'Must - Try Snacks'. After eating one of the snacks, they got diarrhea. It was so bad that they had to go to the doctor. The doctor said it was probably due to some contamination or just that their body didn't like an ingredient in the snack. It was a big disappointment as they thought they were trying something great based on BuzzFeed's recommendation.
Once, my friend ate a whole box of expired chocolates. Soon after, he had really bad diarrhea. He was running to the toilet every few minutes. It was quite a sight as he looked so pale and miserable.
