Worried about bowel movements – 12 days gone by ?!?
I am suffering from an eating disorder but am trying to recover. I haven’t had a bowel movement in 12 days. The longest i go is 14 days and when i do go it is really painful. I haven’t told anyone about this. Should i tell someone or is it normal for this to happen in ED recovery?
Okay, I recovered from an ED last year and ITS COMPLETELY NORMAL! Yes, I’d tell ur doctor, I’d suggest start taking a colace three times a day and 1 dose of miralax in the morning and 1 at night. Drink plenty of water. I know it can be scary. But congratulations on recovering. I would just let your doctor know because something could rupture insid of you if u’v gone 20 days without a bowel movement. best of luck!
Try some fiber like a flax bread every morning for breakfast. That long does seem dangerous
You really should talk about your disorder and recovery with a nutritionist or someone qualified to help you if you haven’t already. People are out there waiting to help.
go to a doctor. or take a stool softener
guess what…you’re going to die young
I’d be more nice about it but its what you need to hear
get some psychiatric help
