You can get blood clots in your legs doing this.
You should get up and walk around every 15 minutes.
Are you telling me to walk around during my shit?
If you spend more than 15 minutes shitting, you should maybe add some fiber in your diet.
Could be IBS or IBD too – assuming you’re getting enough fiber (which may or may not be true) with IBS adding more fiber does fuck-all (although probably won’t hurt), and with IBD actually often makes things worse
edit: added note about needing enough fiber in the first place
I’ve got IBS-C and I’m one unhappy guy if I don’t get enough fiber for a meal or two.
Oh yeah this is all of course assuming that someone’s getting enough fiber already – lots of people don’t. Especially US diets are often pretty fiber poor compared to eg. most parts of Europe
Really?
Fiber just gives me gas which makes the C much more painful. Although I’ve been on the Wegovy diet for a while now, and constipation is far less frequent when you can only physically consume 200 calories of food
Would drinking a little amount of magnesium help?
Help with what?
Taking extraordinarily long shits. It’s used as a laxative.
Oh it’s very often not constipation that causes those long shits when you have IBS or IBD, and a laxative is the last thing you’d want. Both do potentially cause constipation, but there’s better laxatives than magnesium – although apparently specifically with IBD magnesium might help with symptoms but we’re not talking laxative doses
How do i eat carbon fiber tho?
With gusto and aplomb
shredded and added to a smoothie /s
You need to try hard and believe in yourself. Commitment, bro. Commitment.
I’m trying to save your life.
It’s nice to know that I live in a time where Satan’s maggoty cum fart is trying to save people’s lives.
Wasn’t there a subreddit back in the day with this exact thing in mind? Crazy “offensive” name, with a wholesome comment…

I’ve started reading a book instead, and I’ll usually get through maybe ten pages, then come to the end of the chapter, and it’s a natural place to stop. Helps me avoid sitting there for too long browsing dank memes (pronounced may-mays).
I did 3 hours straight, how much you are?
Same when you get out of your car after an hour drive
Me this week cuz I threw out my back picking up my chonky ass labrador.
