... is such a necessity for me!! Man, when I am really sick and am on the couch with a heating pad and a frown, I would go out of my bloody mind if I didn't have my TV!! Now that I am back in Canada, I am extra lucky 'cause my parents upstairs have like 'super cable' so we get lots of extra, really bizarre channels and US channels so we can watch stuff 3 hours earlier and stuff, it's wicked.
I TOTALLY do the breathing thing! And the funniest thing is, I think I started doing it without realising it! I guess sometimes when I get a bad cramp, I breathe out really slowly and I only noticed 'cause Adrian would say, "Tummy pain?" and I thought he was psychic or something before I realised what I was doing, hee hee.
I know what you mean about wanting to get emptied out after not having a BM for so long.. if I go too long, even if it's not uncomfortable, I start to get panicked and try to make myself go.. and then I think, "where's that D when I need it??" and then it comes and I kick myself for wishing it on myself. 
Anywho, I'm sorry you're in the middle of a full fledged attack, it sounds bloody awful. 15 hours, yeesh! It must be even longer now if it's still carrying on... Hmm, shoulda read the other replies to see where you are at.. damn lazy Stephanie.. 
If I remember right, you don't do well on peppermint do you? I was gonna say drink lotsa pep tea if you are forgoing meds, but then I remembered that so... yep, I officially have no advice... 
I hope you feel better really, really soon and don't forget to breath! Hee hee.
*hugs*
