It is normal to poop once every 3-5 days
I poop every 3 days sometimes once in a week. I don't feel any different on my stomach. It is normal?

The frequency of bowel movements varies between people, but at least once a day is preferable and once a week isn't great.
As RoseIsabella says, you might need more fibre in your diet. It's possible that drinking more (non alcoholic) liquids would also help things pass through.

I shit at least 4 times a day lol. You sound either constipated or like you eat as much as a mosquito.

Nope, what you are describing isn't normal. You sound constipated to me. I rather suspect you are not getting enough fiber.

Those people who abuse prescription drugs piss me off so much. They make it harder for people who actually have medical problems to get medication.
My mom was looking to hire a handyman to install some shelving when we first moved out here. Well, this idiot came out, and told her his whole life story, and confided to us that he used to be heroin addict. Needless to say my folks didn't hire this guy. He had to nerve to get all upset that he didn't get hired, but it was supposed to be free estimate.
I'm not trying to me mean, but who in their right mind wants to hire a guy who who doesn't have a portfolio of pictures of his previous work, takes three personal calls while he's supposed to be giving us an estimate, and then he says he used to be a heroin addict? The last thing we need to have some jerk come to are home, do a shitty job, and possibly steal from us.
That guy was flakier than dandruff!

I was on painkillers for some very serious colon issues once. Well, I don't know how serious my colon issues were, but I was in excruciating pain, had constant diarrhea, was on a liquid diet as per doctor's orders until the pain subsided, and was practically bedridden in the summer of 2006, and I didn't get addicted. I lived with this for roughly six weeks, and it was Hell!
I wasn't on painkillers the entire time, because my crazy, domineering mother practically started force feeding me white rice, and I started vomiting. When I told the doctor that I had vomited he took me off the painkillers, because he was afraid that I was having a bad reaction, but the thing is that I had neglected to tell him that I had gone off the liquid diet he had me on, because I was ashamed that my mother had practically force fed me.
I got off the painkillers after having been on them for weeks cold turkey, was told just to take Extra Strength Tylenol. The real saving grace was that I had a friend who got me some marijuana for my pain. I honestly think the marijuana worked wonders for the inflammation.
I guess some people have a predisposition to opioid addiction, but I don't have much sympathy for them, because they make it harder for others who have legitimate issues with pain like my father who has had two hip replacements, and two laminectomy surgeries on his back.
I myself had some x-rays done within the past 10 years which have shown that I have cervical spondylosis in my upper back. I also have bone spurs, and osteoarthritis. I'm certainly in no hurry to get any sort of back surgery done, and especially not by some shitty ass doctor back in Las Vegas. I don't know what it's like in Philadelphia, but I know Houston is known for great medical care. Yes, I miss Houston a lot!
