reoccurring threadworms since childhood

I am based in Australia, and although I can't entirely pinpoint (I hate how that sounds like a pun) when the infection began I know it was sometime when I was 8 or so, maybe earlier. I am still young now and have had this infection continuously reoccur ever since my first experience YEEEEAAARS ago. I don't know what caused it but what I know is that this has caused me great stress and depression for my future. I have tried multiple medications, starting with these chocolates that meant to treat worms. They worked for a little while but eventually they stopped working entirely. This has happened with multiple medications I have had (I need to look for the actual names of everything), and the pain of this makes me quite emotional and disheartened. I am going to try my best to get the best medication possible and be even more hygienic, but a medication called Ivermectin has become difficult to access because of politics involving the covid pandemic. I am also quite constipated, so I will be trying this high fiber drink to see if that's the problem. But overall, this crap is so terribly difficult to handle emotionally. I still have so many years left to live, and there is a hope still in me, but its difficult. May God bless all that might be going through the same hell as me.
