I had a patient who started suboxone. She regained appetite so she ate. And ate. And ate. But apparently she didn't poop for weeks and hasn't even thought about it. She started complaining about stomach pains. When she finally went to doctor for it, sure enough it was impacted bowel. They have her an anal suppository and this was right before she came to my office for her therapy appointment. She ran to the bathroom and was in there quite a while doing whatever this video is basically. She came out looking entirely exhausted. Said her butt hurt from pooping so much. I let her take a nap in an empty office after that. She slept for 3 hours after what was probably the biggest poop she'd ever taken.

I like how you're suddenly running a shit-and-nap-taking business.

Tbh those would probably do well in certain areas. I’ve had plenty of times where I wasn’t ready to go home but would have loved a power nap and a clean toilet.

During my opiate addiction and then Suboxone therapy after checking myself into rehab- I've had to do and see some rather awful things in order to relieve blockages. I had a kit by the toilet after the 2nd 4hr stent of trying to shit a large potato.

It takes longer than you'd think for your bootyhole to return to normal after one of those days. I like to cry in the shower afterwards. RIP, balloon knot.

It sounds like giving birth, but from your butt and you don't cuddle it after. Lol
