I suffer from IBS with constipation and I can relate to your daughter's situation, I am 25 and have had it for a few years. I suffered from depression related to it and was prescribed Paxil, which helps, however, is a very hard drug to get off of. Citrucel works much better for me than Metamucil because it doesn't give me the bloated feeling. The caplets are great because you can take them wherever you go. I also find that exercise and plenty of water have been great for me as well as following the proper eating habits described by Heather and others. One of the best things that you can do is be supportive, and it sounds like you have been right there for her, that is the best feeling in the world!! Good luck and let her know that she is not alone, but that there are many others out there who understand, women and men of all ages!!
