Extra Safe Space #32
Extra Safe Space is a place for things you’ve never told anyone before. These will always be kept completely anonymous. To tell your secret, fill out this form (it doesn’t ask for or record any identifying info). That is the only criterion. Or read other people’s here as they come in.
Ever since I started on Ozempic it has been difficult to have bowel movements. I’ve tried everything. Laxatives, fiber, suppositories you name it. After a while, the poop got so backed up that it hurt. I decided to take matters into my own hands (or fingers). I read online that you could manually remove the poop if needed. Now it’s the best-kept secret. If I’m ever at my boyfriend’s house or on a trip instead of spending an hour on the toilet, I can make myself feel better in minutes on my own. I will take this to my grave and tell no one.
I can say no, I haven't felt anything
Did you ever see that documentary from years and years ago where Bobby Brown takes the poop out of Whitney Houston's butt? That scene is indelibly seared into my mind (in place of many other more useful things, I'm sure). That's what this reminds me of – except that you are doing it all yourself! I love you for sharing that. I will also say that I have resorted to a version of this method myself once or twice when I really needed to – and I am not even anonymous here, much less dead and in my grave – so my shame meter must be broken. Sorry for that and I love you guys!
