Body Breaking down please help

Hi,
Over the last year I have not had a proper bowl movement. I have lost the muscle spasm that allows you to go to the bathroom. I have to eat like 4 cups of activia, just to get the poop out of my body. Also In the last 4-6 months I have been losing my hair and I don’t know why. The hair follicles are no longer growing and its being to look like I am balding. I am only 31 years old. I also have depression, however it has not changed. I also have not been able to get more then 3 hours a sleep each day. I currently serve in the military. I had a gene test done, and it says my hair should not be falling out, also my grandfather still has all of his hair. Is my body breaking down, what can I do, I go to doctors but they seem not to care. Please help me.
Denis

so if you get your bowels flushed out (i did this like 5 months ago), you have to take a bowel softerner.

If you have to go to a non-military doctor, do so.  Activa is not the only solution, you can actually have your bowel pumped out and then begin fresh, with a stool softener every day, to give your lower intestine and colon a chance to heal and be able to compress naturally again.  (This process can take a year, so don't be impatient with it.  You do have to take a stool softener daily after the clean-out so you won't get impacted again.)  Google "encopresis."  See a gastroenterologist.
