I suggest that you contact your primary care doctor. Explain your physical and emotional symptoms to the doctor

A bowel movement, no matter how complete will not eliminate all that you ate the previous day. You need to provide a details about your clinical circumstances. You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods.
