I have been taking Acacia for about 4 days now. I havea BM in the morning..( kinda soft...TMI...sorry) I thought Acacia was supposed to relieve my D. I have been taking 1/2 tsp. twice a day. Should I up my dose? Also, stress in my life causes D for me. I have the hypno cd's and are using them. Any other suggestion for calming my mind?

You've only been taking the acacia for 4 days, please be patient.
You might want to start the acacia with a lower dose. Although the instructions says that dose, 1/2 teaspoon twice a day is too much for some people. Try 1/4 teaspoon twice a day for about 1 week, then increase it by 1/4 teaspoon, wait a week at that dose, then increase it by another 1/4 teaspoon, etc.
In addition to the hypno, you can try yoga to help calm you and add some exercise to your routine.
