After every meal I always have the need to go #2 within like 5-20 minutes. Not all the time, but most of the time. I'd say on average I go 3x a day, sometimes twice and sometimes 4x. Usually it's all solid, although it can be quite small sometimes.

Does anyone know if there's a way to not feel like that all the time?

its normal to go that often
is it uncomfortable to go?

10/10 post. this was a journey

Wow this is very interesting indeed. I think you need professional help with that one.

same dude, same. except that mine isnt always solid

have you tried changing your diet? do you ever take a probiotic pill? how are your poops?

Lol jeez I didn't know there would be such a kick out of this one



Not really no, just annoying to always need to go to the bathroom 5-10 mins after eating. Particularly when out, when home it's no problem of course.



Diet has remained pretty similar throughout past couple years, I have not taken a probiotic pill. What would they mainly help with?
In the morning most of my poops are type 4, sometimes type 3. Then the ones through the day could sometimes type 2, and rarely type 5 (unless I ate something really strange or was dehydrated from really hard cardio)



Fiber is good for that I think, right?

probiotic has helped me in a lot of situations where I was having GI stress. I'm not a dr tho so maybe start there. Doesn't sound like you have an allergy or IBS or anything.

Any specific kind you like?

I have had really fancy expensive whole foods ones and relatively inexpensive drug store brands. They all seem to do the same job. They make smaller packs so you can see if they make a difference without buying a ton. I would get terrible GI and IBS stress when travelling and taking a probiotic the day before travel and the day during travel removed any symptoms. Good luck!
