How can I avoid constipation while taking medication for bipolar disorder?

A number of bipolar medications can cause constipation. Drinking lots of fluids is one of the main ways to prevent constipation. A healthy diet filled with fruits (avoid bananas) and green leafy vegetables also serves as a primary prevention.

Regular exercise can also help. Constipation is often a problem in the beginning stages of a medication regimen and should sort itself out with the measures described above. If it continues for more than a week despite your best efforts, speak with your prescribing healthcare provider for further advice.

Common treatments include milk of magnesia, suppositories, and Pepto-Bismol. A glass of milk or a cup of coffee also sometimes does the trick.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
