It was my antidepressant paralyzing my bowels

I was ready to remove my colon after years of worsening severe constipation. Every constipation med would eventually stop working even after increasing the doses of them. It took reducing my antidepressant dose (I’m on Paxil) to regain my bowel function. I urge you all to consider that your antidepressant may be the cause! I wish I had figured this out sooner.
