One long fast or several shorter fasts? Or several long fasts?


I hate overly long life story posts lol. So after the first paragraph here I'm just rambling about myself so feel free to only read the beginning paragraph or so.

For those of you with experience in fasting, what is the best method for fasting? Would you recommend any short (3-14 day) fasts before a longer (14-40 day) fast? Is a longer ,say 30 day, fast dangerous enough to warrant maybe 2 15 day fasts instead? Would the effects be comparable? And what is the general recommended length of time to wait after a fast until you start another one?

I know that is a lot of questioning lol but I hope any of you can offer some insight. I am sick and tired of being less than perfectly healthy and to be honest want to get the maximum benefit as quickly as possible without endangering my health. I would hate to do a 30 plus day fast only to die from a heart attack lol... So for those of you who have experience, what do you think?

I still think I want to do more research before I go on a full throttle fast. I'm currently reading a lot on the internet and fasting books and want to get a better feel for the risks I would be taking...

And if you're curious I am a 20 year old male. I'm at a good weight being 5'9 and about 155 pounds. I have many non life threatening problems including, chronic constipation no matter what I do, generally weak digestion, dry skin, brain fog, fatigue, anxiety (but I have pretty good control on it now), constant dark circles under my eyes, mildly swollen kidneys in the morning (I can feel it), I don't seem to sweat most of the time (big wtf right?), low body temp, my hormones are probably all messed up, I know for a fact my testosterone is low, varicose veins at my hips, sinus pressure at my nose, snow vision and floaters.

All probably from being over prescribed with Antibiotics and other drugs when I was younger combined with a bad diet at the time and emotional stresses. But I'm doing what I can now and I know what I wrote it must make me seem pathetic lol but I am doing okay and I'm not crazily depressed or anything. Although when I abstain from all the usual food, alcohol and cigarettes the lack of that social outlet doesn't help. Before I looked into forums like these I thought I was insane or had some neurological degeneration that was gonna kill me. So it's comforting to see how many others are going through similar and often much worse things.
