You might think this is another bs post or Im trolling but Im being serious. Almost everyday I end up taking 4-5 shits and occasionally a 6th shit. My daily meals consist of 4-6 home made natural cooked meals and occasionally a junk food meal. I eat breakfast,a breakfast snack before lunch, lunch, afternoon snack, dinner and if Im hungry a bed time snack. I shit when I wake up,a little after lunch(lunch-12pm),around 3-4pm,a little after dinner(dinner-6-7),right before bed and sometimes I end up taking a shit very early in the morning about 4-5a.m which sucks cus then I can't go back to sleep well. Forgot to mention that I drink around 5-6 glasses of water daily. If this matters I weight 130lbs(Im skinny) and am 5'8". Is there something wrong with me?

    It is an individual thing. Some people go more often than you in a day and some people go 3 times a week. Had an ex-girlfriend who went once a week. I like to shit as often as possible. It is relaxing. I sometimes try and poop even when I have no need for it. Most of the time, I do need to use the bathroom.

    I have always asked myself the same question, why do I shit 4 to 5 times a day. And I am not talking about shitting a spoonful but bucket loads.Be assured you are not alone.

    It's pretty normal considering I'm the same, and I'm pretty normal.

    It doesn't seem natural to me so no, not normal.

    Sounds like you've just got an ultra-fast metabolism. You probably need to eat that amount just to keep weight on.

    For the sake of a side-story, I've been going 4-5 times a day too and the only thing I've eaten in 48 hours is a couple of slices of dry white bread baked like melba toast (an hour ago). But then, I have been:

    (a) running a high fever (involuntarily)
    (b) abstaining from alcohol (involuntarily)
    (c) abstaining from sleep (involuntarily)
    (d) hallucinating (involuntarily)
    (e) feeling VERY queasy (involuntarily)

    Dark, tiny, biological forces have tried to mutiny. I'm coherent, so I'm currently winning.

    I was beginning to think you were a hobbit but then you threw in the 5'8" what a disappointment.
