I take a laxative on a regular basis.... I cheat and have the chocolate laxatives (I now see a laxative as a weekly treat.... only on Cambridge!)

i am terrified of the thought of laxatives. I think its been drummed into me that they are 'bad', or open to abuse. Obviously i would never do this, but im scared! Once a week makes sense though, i wouldhave been taking them every night. Thank god for this page!

I've just started taking psyllium husk this week and it seems to be doing the trick! Bought it online from Simply Supplements. Before that I was taking laxatives but didn't want to get into the habit of having to take those all the time.
