I had been constipated on my vacation and took an EZlax. I felt better immediatly. Soon after I felt stomach pains and took it again. I used it because they made me feel better, now I stopped using them and I can't go to the restroom without it. I'm really nervous because I'm so young (14) and I don't want to be unhealthy. I'm afraid to tell my parents and I would like to know some foods or drinks that could help me go to the restroom again.

Eat lots of fruit for one whole day - dont eat anything else. The fruit will loosen you up enough that you should be able to go to the bathroom. For me, the fruit works like a laxative. If it doesn't work you should go to your doctor. Some doctors will allow you to talk to them without parental supervision or approval - but if you are in serious trouble you should probably tell your parents. They can help and more than likely ease your anxiety.
