When doing a dump I can take up to 20 minutes (usually 15) to get the stuff out. is there something wrong with me? Diet problem maybe?
It is normal in my opinion. I usually take my time on the loo like tonight for example I had a bit of a bellyache after work and it took me at least 30 mins on the loo having a really good poo, it smelled but I felt better having got rid of all that waste. I really didn't care how long it took me but the main thing is it made me feel better. Everyone is different how long they spend on the loo, for some it's over and done with in a minute but with others it's not the case but I always think it's no one else's business how long you spend on the loo, we're all different with our bowel habits/movements it's something that can't be helped I'm afraid. I have in the past been made aware of exactly how long I was taking to have a poo but I simply told them to mind their own business, end of. Going to the bathroom is a personal and private thing and I appreciate being left alone to take care of my bodily functions that way.
That's called constipation and is usually the result of an unhealthy diet with not enough fibre. How can you not know this?
It's a normal thing for people to take long, on occasion. I'm not really sure about every single day, but yeah, I'd say eat some more foods that contain fiber. If that doesn't help, just eat healthier foods! Other than that, I'd go to the doctor.
