My T has told me many times they do not result in weight loss and that is what I really want although I know this wont happen. Its as if I need to be empty - does that make sense? It's as if I am punishing my body for something. I feel such a mess. I reached out to T but haven't had a reply. I really need to talk to her. xx

You need to find a dr that is very familiar with ED. No one else will understand and just brushing things off because you "look like you don't have an ED" will 100% get you no where and feeling defeated (and possibly agree with them that nothing is wrong).
I know what you're going though, though. I have been through it. I know the feeling of wanting to be "empty." Its a temporary illusion because food (calories!) gets absorbed in the small intestine and anything that is undigestible moves to the colon. The colon is where the laxatives take effect and moves everything out like a freight train. You will never lose weight using laxatives, just "mass."
It sounds cheesy but the first step in healing is the smallest thing...even throwing around the possibility this could be a problem and causing dysfunction. Trust me when I say this will get you no where.
