    I have struggled with constipation my whole life.

    For most people, including me, constipation is caused by dehydration. I’m still working on increasing my water intake, but in the meantime:

    1. If cannot poop, get off the toilet.
    2. Go chug a couple glasses of water.
    3. Pop some squats. Hold low position for a few seconds.
    4. Try pooping again when it feels right.

    Putting your pants back on for this process is optional.
