Probably IBS: Most likely you have irritable bowel. This is usually caused by not having enough dietary fiber. Other causes of diarrhea are lactose intolerance, infection and ibd. You should see your physician. In the meantime, try metamucil or an equivalent product.

Get it evaluated: Chronic diarrhea ( runny poops to you) requires a medical evaluation. There are several causes, some of which can be serious. See a gastroenterologist.
