Dependent on Milk of Magnesia for Digestive Comfort

I've been taking Milk of Magnesia daily for about 2 years now - it's the only thing that keeps me regular and comfortable. I really don't want to be dependent on it for the rest of my life, but I've gotten frustrated whenever I've tried and failed to wean myself off of it. Does anyone else have any experience with it? Thanks! :-)

I used to take that years ago but my body rejects it now. It knows I’m drinking it and it won’t let me swallow. The taste is just nasty. For awhile though I’ve been reliant on Swiss Kriss. It’s a senna tablet so there’s no taste but my body has developed a tolerance to it so it doesn’t really work anymore. I also suffer from chronic constipation and I’m also on a lifelong research to find relief from it. Like you I also don’t want to be reliant on laxatives to go regularly. These are the medicines I’ve taken throughout the years: Senokot Milk of Magnesia Magnesium Cirate Dulcolax Enema Swiss Kriss Senna Tea
