I'm sorry you're down.
I think that a lot of times, the bowel (excuse me being direct) gets beat up by our mental illnesses. It seems to be particularly sensitive to our moods, as is the stomach. The doctors don't ask the right questions. They think that you don't have a bonafide illness just because there is nothing *originating* in the bowel. (There's a word for this, I think it's etiology.) Years ago, I had IBS, Irritable Bowell Syndrome. It causes alternating diahrrea and constipation. It accompanied my major depression. It was not a side affect of medication or anything. So they prescribed phenabarbitol. It did the trick. It was only temporary as when the depression lifted and my system normalized, it gradually went away. But there was no other cause for it.
I don't think you are crazy. I think every illness we have, whether mental or physical, has a cause. Sometimes, however, doctors get lazy and don't want to go beyond their 15 alotted minutes in figuring out what it is. You could go see another doctor.
