Thank u for replying
Both of u
I'm fine now I'm ashamed to say I still take them
I'm hooked and have been for sometime
I feel I can't go to my drs I try to avoid them as much as I can
They have never been understanding and when I do have Togo for appointments their always running 45mins to hour late which makes it worse
I have anxiety and panic attacked
And sickness , I hate I ever started taking them wish I never did but find it hard to stop
Sorry for wasting ur time

You need to see your GP and get advice about reducing your intake of laxatives slowly so you don't damage your system any more.

Yes I know that now as said above but I don't think it's possibles
Due to stupid waiting times anxiety panic attacks & sickness
Already
I'm greatful for the replies
And I will try see a dr
If I can brave it
But I feel fine since the random symptoms

Please speak to your gp regarding the laxatives so you can come off them when your ready. i hope you feel better soon.

a similar experience happened to me and it ended in me falling off the loo, having a seizure and dropping my phoned down the loo. i felt like i was dying but for me it was caused by dehydration. i hope you're treating yourself well, please do try to reduce the amount you're taking as it sounds very unhealthy and please seek help ):

[angeldevil123]

if you have a cpn or psych speak to him/her about it they can offer advice and support on that side of things

You NEED to see a doctor regarding your laxative abuse as if you carry on like this you could easily have a heart attack. I'm not thinking of it as a 1 off thing an 'ok, you're fine now, there's no big danger right now', I'm thinking of how your body is reacting, the state it is probably in and how easy it will happen again. In all likelihood what went on probably wasn't only dehydration but dehydration along with your electrolytes being all messed up which can cause muscle cramps and have been partly the cause of the pain. This can also make you less aware, unable to move normally, have severe affects on the brain and nerves and also can have a profound affect on the heart. You need to see someone about this before you get worse as heart disease, often caused by laxative abuse/ purging/ dehydration, as well as your body being under severe stress is, alongside suicide, 1 of the main caauses of death in people with an ED and so it needs to be taken seriously as next time you may not be so lucky to feel fine a while later.

like what animad said you definitely need to visit your gp about the Laxatives to get the help you need, he/she wont judge you and then hopefully things will get better for you.
