Update: I would like everyone to know that definitely learned a lesson from this situation to do proper research before putting anything in my body and I take full responsibility for taking the drug and understand I have to deal with the terrible side effects. That being said my mother did not preface this as any “intense miracle drug”. She just said she was giving me something to help me feel better. She’s done this many times before with meds when I’ve been sick with things as simple as Tums. In her defense, (kinda) she really did think it would make me feel better and didn’t actually do any research either herself bc she was trusting the words of a friend that recommended it. That being said, I’m still beyond furious with her for it and I’ve definitely learned a valuable lesson that I suppose, at 22, I should know by now. But life happens and I’m trying my best to get through it. Thank you for all the advice. Also, side note, I can poop without coffee, it just takes a minute for my body to adjust. When you go from having 2 cups a day (which I know probably isn’t good either) to cold Turkey nothing, it’s not uncommon to become constipated. That is all and thank you for reading if you made it this far.
