My stomach feels awful, like something uncomfortable is inside with mild pain. I also throw up almost all substances I am given including the laxatives I took because of my lack of bowel movement. Now I was given terramicina and don’t know if that was such a good idea since my stomach feels a bit worse.
I was in an eating disorder program back in September and the biggest problem I had with eating was consipation. So they had me on mirolax and I was on that between september and november and that helped. But I am trying to ween off of it now so i was taking it every other day..then every two days and I stopped taking it completely for about a week now. But now it seems like im having trouble going again but I dont want to keep resorting to the laxatives bc I need to train my body to not need them. Could my bowels have gotten addicted to them that fast? Is this normal..will it eventually clear up? I eat healthy and drink plenty of water so I know thats not the issue. Should I just keep eating as I normally do? Any help thanks
I’ve recently los about 100 pounds in the past 2 yrs. For about a year and a half i did it naturally. exercise. eating healthy. all the good stuff. Well, i went to florida and pigged out at my grandmas house and gained weight and got constipated because of the unhealthy things that i ate. So, i bought laxatives. After that.. if i would get occasional constipation, i would use laxatives. As time progressed. I would take laxatives 1-2 times a month. Then it turned into maybe once a week. Then it went on to twice or more a week. I thought that if i pigged out and i took the laxatives.. it would be okay. But then one day i looked it up online. i figured what i was doing wasn’t very good for my body and found out that this was considered an eating disorder. Now, i get bloated before and even after i take them.. I know that i have reached a horrible extent with it. My question is.. Can i come off of them on my own? what would the side effects be? and what is a healthy, normal way to cause bowel movements bc i am constipated without the laxatives. are fiber pills okay? I want to stop because now i realize that i am hurting my body in the long run. I just don’t want to ruin what i worked so hard for. I only have used laxatives for the past 6 months and it is not an every day thing. But i know i’m still hurting myself. someone please help me. i’m kinda scare.
I’ve been gradually taking more and more senna laxatives to help clean myself out during the nights. I’m up to about 3-4 pills now. They used to work within 8-12 hours, but it’s been taking longer and longer. Monday night I took 3 senna laxatives, and I had a bowel movement 20 hours later! I took 2 senna laxatives yesterday around 5 pm…and I have yet to go! Why is it taking so long now? Is it because my colon is backed up? Is my body getting used to the dosage? I’m not looking for “tips” I just want to know why my body is doing this, has it happened to any of you?
(Yes, I have an eating disorder, please don’t lecture me about how unhealthy I am…I just want to know why my body is doing this)
I take Senna-S laxative capsules by CareOne…if that helps at all, it’s not a tea or anything
Julie, wtf? Alright yeah, let’s just go ahead and bash the girl with the eating disorder. I TOTALLY just woke up one morning and decided to just keep on doing this to myself, it’s TOTALLY a conscious choice. It’s not like I fight it or anything. I’m also in therapy, btw. Fucking learn about eating disorders you stupid nut.
I’m starting to get worried now, I was feeling immense knife like feeling in my large intestine. The pain lasted awhile and now its gone on for almost 24 hours, I’ve taken 3 laxatives but I still haven’t gone (I think its because I am constipated I haven’t gone in about 3 days and it feels like there’s A LOT in there since the laxatives aren’t working I’m worried. Please help!

im worried she may hurt herself permenantly
The past few days i have felt very bloated and have had a hard time doing a #2 which is unsual for me. I don’t have my period and i’m not about to for a few more weeks. Are laxatives the answer? I’ve never really taken any so I don’t know if they are helpful or what kind to use or if i should even take them at all. Some helpful advice would be great:)
