The main reason I want to stop my frequent BMs is because I feel like my body is not absorbing the nutrients of my foods. And also because it makes me exhausted to go to the bathroom so much! I feel like I'm not eating enough (1,200 calories at the most!) to go to the bathroom as much as I do. So that's why I want to take these meds- to gain weight and utilize the nutrients in my food. But I was wondering, do these meds even do that? Do they help you get nutrients from your food, or do they just stop you up? MAN I can't even IMAGINE if I was taking these as an antidepressant- they must have had the most horrific side effects! 150 mg of this [censored]! I guess when you're desperate, it's better than shock treatment! Thank God for the invention of prozac, people must have been stoked when it was invented because there wasn't all these crazy side effects!
