as someone with IBS, cold/frozen liquids are the way to go... pun fully intended. it might be a bit difficult to keep things cool, but frozen sports drinks and the like are good for keeping you going. it's really unhealthy, and i absolutely can't recommend it, but it should work. you get a lot of your water intake from food, too, so if it's not getting any of that, the water you ingest from liquids/frozen liquids is gonna get sucked up by your large intestine and, in theory, you'll need the toilet less. good luck with, uh. your thing.
I'm guessing you're going backcountry or to a festival of some kind. I sympathize but using an outhouse or potta potty isn't bad, it's just a mental block. You'll enjoy yourself a lot more when you do things normally.
I wonder if doing a colon cleanse beforehand help? Similar to what people do before a colonoscopy.
Also, it is an odd request but Iโm now fully vested in your post to see what others suggest.
OP, there's help available if you have OCD.
Me surviving 1week without pooping
MREs. Particularly US MREs. You can eat em as much as you want and you won't have to go for a week.
Fear the end of the week, however
I don't have any suggestions but would like to give my thanks for the quality content
Imodium
This could be a setting in a Stephen King novel.
I am really curious about the situation, but all I've to say is be safe and update us.
If you make it to wherever you're going, please let us know the story!
For limited opportunities to pee, I'd carry a good sized bottle and limit drinking to sipping water/an electrolyte beverage through a straw.
For limiting poop, I'd try to be empty ahead of time, and just take something solid like bread and cheese which means you probably could go through three days without pooping.
Brother/sister/sibling, please just poop.
