at home remedies for constipation?

[afternoontea.livejournal.com]

So guys, I'm constipated. I can't poop! I know that it's in there because I feel like I have to go, and it will start to come out, but no matter how hard I try it just doesn't happen. And it hurts!

What do I do??! I've been trying to drink water and eat foods with fiber, but someone in this community has to have some better ideas. I've heard that laxatives, etc. can actually make it worse, and I can't really go to the doctor right now.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
