If laxative use has become tied to worries about weight, body image or feeling empty, it deserves support that considers your physical health as well as how you are feeling.

Overcome Laxative Abuse is a self-hypnosis recording from Uncommon Knowledge, available through Hypnosis Downloads. Its stated themes include body-related anxiety and changing a problematic relationship with laxatives.

Medical guidance before making changes

The recording is not a treatment for laxative misuse or an eating disorder. Excessive laxative use can cause serious health problems, including dehydration and electrolyte disturbances. Speak to a doctor about your use and how to make changes safely.

Points to consider

If laxatives have been prescribed, do not alter the prescription on the basis of this page. If concerns about eating or weight are involved, appropriate care may also include specialist eating-disorder support.

An audio cannot correct dehydration, monitor blood chemistry or establish that stopping without support is safe. Any role it has should be considered as optional self-help alongside your individual care plan.
