There is a: Biopsychotype in traditional chinese medicine that includes obsessing over & constantly being concerned about ones feces and stooling patterns. I suggest that you talk to your parents about seeing a therapist who works with cognitive behavioral therapy. It is good that you recognize that your obsessive concerns regarding your bowels are excessive. Get help. Take care.
