Weaning yourself off laxatives is extremely challenging. I and others I know from clinics have had to do it as a consequence of eating disorders. If you are panicking, you will find it very difficult to be patient and allow your body to normalize itself. A dozen suggestions from different people with all sorts of different experiences/IBS symptoms/trigger foods etc. about what foods to avoid, what supplements to try, etc., may not be helpful right now because you are so totally focused on this, and in that state, people often chop and change in desperation when results are not immediate. My advice would be to see a trained dietician, be honest about your dependence on lax and wean yourself under professional medical supervision.
