How often do you poop? Serious question.
My digestive system is horribly fucked up since an eating disorder a few years back, and I only poop once every 2 weeks or so. It hurts, and I'm constantly bloated. Enemas and Laxatives work, but I try to avoid those because it'll slowly become my only option. Fiber supplements don't work either. Everyone just says "Eat more!" They don't understand that I physically CAN'T, because I'm in so much pain and discomfort from not pooping regularly.
And yes, I've tried coffee and smokes.
How about you?
No. 127116
>>127114what you eats matters too, anon. Do you eat enough fruit? Melon goes straight through me. And make sure you're hydrated. You can't properly digest if you're dehydrated. Drop the enemas and laxatives. Drink more, move more, add in smoothies. Don't eat hard to digest food, like sweetcorn, or any meats.

must squat to poo properly. That's just our anatomy and how our colon works.

>change position>eat more veg, fruits, drop processed foods and meats>drink drink drink>move move move I shit every single day. I don't feel clean unless I do (mental problems moving on). And I can't remember the last time I had diarrhea or constipation, and even then it was caused by a sickness.
going the route of unhealthy habits, like smoking or laxatives, is so counter productive and will cause worse problems down the road. The key to feeling good is to be healthy.
No. 127118
>>127114holy shit anon, you should seriously stock up on fibers, are you eating enough veggies and fruits?
Also I suggest using Squatty potty or something like it, this goes for everyone. Humans are designed to poop squatting.

(Honestly I'm not a squatty potty salesperson because anything could work really, lika a stool or small table.)
I poop several times a day btw.

I poop pretty regular, at least a couple times a day depending on how much I eat.
The only time I ever have a poop problem is when I get old spicy bleeding butthole.
It's when I eat something incredibly spicy, and also get constipation/diarrhea at the same time. I wind up going to the toilet so much, pushing hard, and wiping that I develop an anal fissure. So then I've got a bleeding butthole and spicy shit sliding against the open wound. Holy fuck it's so painful and it takes a couple of days for it to heal!
Rarely happens though, maybe 2 times a year, max. Sometimes zero if I'm lucky.

Beets are pretty good as well for a snack since they have lots of fiber and are not very high cal.

>>127114Honestly thanks for making this thread anon.
I've had problems with pooping very rarely since I can remember. My mom told me that even as a baby I wouldn't poop regularly and always just tiny rock hard pebbles.
I shit about once a week now, sometimes with the help of laxatives. It sucks because as soon as I haven't pooped for two days on my stomach becomes crazy bloated and I feel too insecure about it to wear anything tight. Right after I've had my weekly shit my stomach becomes flat again.
I also have problems shitting anywhere that's not my home, and even there I can only go when nobody else is there.
No. 127149
I poop everyday, it must be horrible to only do it once in a while. It was my case when I was little, but now it's everyday, with no precise hour, once or twice a day.
I usually wait until I feel like I reaaally need to shit before going because I hate having to wait and push.
>>127146>I hate how fast almond milk spoils, had a batch turn purple within one day ew.Uhh that's not normal. Most plant milks have ingredients for conservation in them so they don't spoil fast. Try another brand, also I recommand oat milk, not sure if it's less gassy but it tastes good lol. And to keep gas low on a plant based diet, remember to soak beans before cooking them.
Going vegetarian actually made me fart a lot and quite odorous but I'm pretty sure it's because I put raw cabbage in my salads…
No. 127153
>>127151do you scarf down your food when you eat? you might be swallowing too much air. try to slow down when you eat and avoid swallowing too many huge solid chunks of food - it's gross but your digestion will be much smoother if you swallow your food when it's basically turned to liquid in your mouth.
it could also be a reflex problem. try popping a few tums before meals.
No. 127154
>>127151Pooping more after lifting is understandable. All that movement is going to get blood flowing and get your bowel working! It's like when you walk a dog and it poops, even though it's just pooped at home in the yard. The walking can stimulate them into needing to go, just like you and your exercise.
I shit like clockwork. Twice or three times a day. Once an hour after I get up, again around midday and another in the evening. It's never gross looking until I'm on my period then it's like playing russian roulette with the toilet bowl. I used to have severe IBS symptoms but cleared that up by fixing my diet and exercising consistently. I recently switched from being vegetarian back to eating meat again and I feel a lot less bloated and am no longer being crippled by farts.
But yeah… look after your shit, it can tell you a lot about what's going on inside of your body!

I'm so jealous of the anons that can poop more than once a day. I'm lucky if I can do it once every other day, and I don't know why. I eat prunes every day and most of my diet consists of mainly meat, vegetables, fruit, water, and tea. The only thing that I know for sure will help get things going is my ADHD meds. And even then, it doesn't work all the time.
I know a lot of people have said that coffee is a great kick-starter, but I can't drink it because I'm hyper-sensitive to caffeine (I can't even eat a square of dark chocolate at night or else I will stay up all night, that's how sensitive I am).
Also, does anyone else apply lube to their hole before they go?
I saw it mentioned in a Reddit thread like half a year ago, and it changed my life.

On Saturday I'm invited to a birthday party. I haven't see my friend for a year now, since she lives quite far away. This would be only the 3rd time I'd meet up with a friend this year, so I really feel like I should go (and I also miss her dearly…).
However, apart from her there's only one other girl I'm friends with going to be there - I don't know the others, so that makes me extra nervous.
My very first thought when she invited me was,"Oh god, on Saturday I have Uni all day long, that will already be a problem with my IBS. But then additionally driving for 1-2 hours and meeting strangers for several hours…" The worst thing is: whenever I don't eat for let's say more than 5 hours I will get diarrhea as soon as I eat again. So what if I don't find time to eat before - or if I still need to go even after though I ate…? When I'm at home I really go after nearly every single meal; I also always get up earlier just so that I have enough time before having to leave the house.
Any ideas about what to do? It's a goddamn circle: be nervous about doing something -> need to shit -> avoid going out/doing stuff because of that -> get even more anxious and less used to social situations, and so on…

If I don't poop as soon as the urge hits, I can't poop at all until I get another urge to poop. This can take 15 minutes if I'm lucky, or typically hours. Sometimes it's more than 24 hours. I also can't poop away from home, no matter how hard I try, unless I am in a hotel or something and have the whole room to myself.
>>127181I can't squeeze it out by force, either. I just wait for the urge and it comes out with little effort.
>>127189Dig a hole and use a portable bidet after the first few wipes.
>>127208I'm sorry you had that experience, that's rough. I remember when I visited my brother in college for three nights. Couldn't poop because none of the bathrooms nearby were private, and by the time I could reach the single occupancy bathrooms, the urge had passed. I was only supposed to stay two nights, but there was a delay with the train I was taking back. Agony.

When I was in school (both general education and university) my body absolutely hated me. I could clog any toilet with my shit.
Seriously. I could literally shit bricks. I fucking hated it. I even, in an attempt to plunge the shit down, managed to make the toilet overflow in a university apartment. More than twice. In college, it got so bad that I did a minor
>>127215 thing where I would break up my shits with a pair of disposable gloves on because I knew plunging wouldn't be enough/efficient. It fucking sucked and has induced a public pooping paranoia on me where, unless I am having some sort of explosive diarrhea, absolutely refuse to shit in public because I am afraid I will clog a toilet.
But however, now that I'm out of school, I have had absolutely zero issues and can poop successfully every morning before I go to work. And they're a good texture–not too hard, not too soft. I don't know what the hell is up with my body. Stress, I guess, caused it? Because my diet hasn't changed really since school, and I've been out of college for three years. I'm still scared to poop in public places, though.

>>127114Finally a thread where I can comment something useful. My digestive system completely went to shit from my late teens and into my twenties, getting progressively worse since I first started my period. I was constantly exhausted, with abdominal pain, and would always be in worse pain if I ate something. Got anorexic levels of skinny without being ana chan, and was on the toilet for at least two hours a day. I would have put a TV in there if I had the energy.
Turned out I have Crohn's diseases and the treatment options are shit. Can be drugs that either don't work or give you cancer, don't work and still give you cancer, can be surgery so you carry your poop in a bag attached to your body and fuck no, and you can die from it young if you're really unlucky.
Anyhow, treatment options terrified me as much as the disease, so I tried going vegetarian for a month, with a lot of soy milk, which made things even worse. Then found this retarded idea on the internet about a diet which was 70% fat. But I had nothing to lose. Gave keto a go and the pain was gone within a week, then the fatigue lifted. Gained weight back, now going to the gym and building muscle, living my best life and never going back. Fuck pastries, bread, rice, pasta and all processed shit, all of it, including the hippie dippy alternatives that idiots like Goop market. I'd rather eat meat now, and liver, fish, butter and coconut oil, heavy cream and eggs, stuff like that, with occasionally a little fruit, because fiber is a meme but fruit is nature's candy and a treat. Poops are fine and don't hurt anymore.

IBS is destroying my life.
I truly believe it's the main source of my terrible anxiety. When an important event is coming up, either an exam or a journey, then the thing that makes me the most nervous and scared is, "Will I be able to go to the toilet in the morning???" Because if I don't and my anxiety gets too much, then I will get diarrhea.
I panic if I don't manage to go to the toilet before leaving the house, because I dread having to go while in class or during work.
I usually shit multiple times a day, it's as if I am addicted to it. If my intestines are not empty, then something bad could happen.
Thinking back I've had this problem for ages already. Even back then as a young teen I was worried during sleepovers, about going to the toilet. When is the best time? Is everybody asleep already, can I secretely go to shit? So being somewhere for more than half a day, makes me feel awful. I was to the doctor so often, thought I'm allergic to dairy, and so on, he never found what causes it, but now through internet research I'm quite sure that it's just a mental problem. Cutting out certain type of food would have been easier.
In 3 weeks I have a christmas party from my workplace: work from 2 to 8 and then immediately head to the restaurant… I especially get diarrhea often if I haven't eaten for a long time and then eat a big/hot/greasy meal. Such as it will be in this case. Great.

>>127244Do you take any medication with your IBS? A lot of my cramping and shits are from anxiety driven, but also not going daily. I went back to a new gastro doctor last month who told me to stop taking my hyosycamine and docustat, and start taking 2 doses of basically Metamucil. If that didn't help they would introduce a fiber supplement, except the issue after trying the Metamucil for a week and the fiber supplement is I started to get the shits way more. Took one fiber pill and boom, next day on the toilet for several hours with tons of pain, 3 times in one week. I went back to taking my docustat but the past few days I've been going normal.
My doctor say if there was still cramping he would start me on a low dosage antidepressant but I still think the anxiety should be addressed as well. I have IBS-M(mixed, constipation and diarrhea. I've been trying to phone him all week to discuss what to try next but no luck.. I can't get a job with this up and down randomness of never be able to have a proper routine and the stress/anxiety of the cramping prevents me from holding a full time job. I got fired from my one job for calling off too much.
Someone once told me they do this experimental test where you basically swallow a pill that is someone else's shit, and your bowel system takes on that persons bowel movements but it's only used in extreme cases like celiac or chrons disease.

you dont know how good you've had it until it's gone. the last week or two i've had painful shits because of stress eating, which means carbs ontop of carbs stuffing my stomach until i feel like throwing up. the shits are what i imagine anal sex without lube would feel like, while being shy and fucking going right back up.
I used to wonder why people take their phones to the toilet. When I was good about my weight loss, poops just slid right out like a lozenge, super satisfying, i'd get up and think, "man that was a good shit." And even be a little proud of it. A long soft round turd tapered at the end naturally lubed and firm but springy. It'd take under a minute, so I didn't understand people who say, "Saw this on the toilet." I'd go once a day or eod, never even thought about it. Now, I go every other day or so and I'm scared that it'll hurt. Damn I'm scared for you guys who go once a week!! I already have strained shits (cause of carb stress eating) and I worry I'm going to pop my intestines or something. I can't imagine people who take 30m or 1hr shits. One time it took me 10min and I started crying worried I'll never shit again (tfw hypochondriac)
When I was dieting I have a serving of vegetables everyday bc that's one of the only things worth the calories lmao. For example vegetable medley's, a serving of salad, or 10 brussel sprouts daily, sometimes with oatmeal and probiotics. I'm sensitive to caffeine so I still take a cup of coffee decaf cut with half-and-half. And those were the days I had splendid shits I took for granted. I feel honestly sad for people who abuse laxatives. In my ana-chan days I did use them but it was limited so I'm glad it didn't do any lasting damage. One time I used s much I ended up at the ER thinking the pain will end me… (hypochondriac) I can't imagine what crapping once every 10 days would be like when I get scared if I go less than once every 2 days. I guess I'm saying I'm proud of my shits at least LOL. when I was good about my diets I felt like I had just won the guinesses world record for long and beautiful shits each time. Eating a packet of vegetable medley right now as I type. It's been getting better. But I had a whole pizza today too from stress.

>>127146I used to drink a lot of soy milk(vegan) I had the same problem, but really what can you expect when you're drinking literal bean water.I just stopped drinking milks.Coconut/Soy/Almond are the most accessible but if money is not a problem cashew/oat/hemp/rice are other options + consider getting milks with preservatives.
>>127165some are really oily..
>>127174oatmeal is under-rated also how you cook + how much water to oatmeal you use is important.
>>127180Yes I'm not sure if it's something I've always had or a result of some risky sexual behavior.Either way it's been getting better lately, but I'm still worried.
>>127181sometimes you have to force it but I don't think it should be considered safe:

>>127313i'm so glad i grew up in a household that was open to EVERYONE farting and talking about their bathroom issues. my mom has IBS so it was definitely normalized for me, i can't believe how many households tell women farting and pooping is just a man thing.
my best friend used to get severely anxious using public restrooms because she feared knowing other people heard her going to the restroom. she told me i helped her get rid of that fear when i would invite her to come into single stall restrooms with me when we both had to go because i'd just be like "it'll be faster if we go in together"
tbh, i used to be the same way with pooping, but i got over it when i would sit in bathrooms for long periods of times, either due to diarrhea or just sitting with my phone for a while, and hear other women poop and fart and then realize "they won't remember me or who was in that stall if i stayed here long enough" over time i just went "fuck it, i have things to do" and that anxiety pretty much left me.

>>127315Because when you sit down on the toilet it aligns the muscles to release farts
Also why do we have this thread when there's a bathroom thread on /g/ lol

>>127317It's not because of sitting down, men also fart before peeing when standing up.
>>127315To pee we have to relax our pelvic floor muscles and these muscles also control our rectal area.

>>127318>men also fart before peeing when standing upI have to wonder how you know this
It must be at least in part due to sitting down though, as it's harder to hold in a fart when you bend over
