    I suffered with what I thought was IBS for the last ~10 years. 4+ liquid shits per day with complete unpredictability.

    Turns out coffee was the problem.

    I switched to tea two weeks ago and I’m down to 2 normal and predictable shits per day. I’ve also gained a few pounds because I’m not so dehydrated anymore. That’s a good thing for me.

    I got food poisoning from eating crabs before and it’s so horrible that I thought of killing myself, extreme case of diarrhea is no joke

      Also, if anybody funds themselves in this situation, hydrate or die-drate. Really bad diarrhea is very, very, very dehydrating (just think about how much water is in the liquid sludge coming out of your ass)

      That’s the food poisoning that’s bad, though, not the diarrhea.

    One time on the old run of Beavis and Butt-Head, Beavis complained that diarrhea medicine didn’t work. He took a whole bottle of it, he said, and then he complained that he never got diarrhea.
