This. There are probably dozens of possible causes and if the thread gets long enough, we could have someone relate having experience with each one of them. For example, my wife had a similar problem for months, went to multiple doctors, opted to have her gallbladder removed because it MIGHT fix it, and thankfully it did.
You need to see a professional and they will take a stool sample. It sounds like a viral infection which means you may need to take antibiotics. But newer treatments involve fecal transplantation works better than antibiotics. I would never take an antibiotic unless my life is in danger.
So for about a month, I've been having consistent diarrhea, usually twice a day. It happens in the morning and then in the evening. The color is usually brown or tan. .
What are you eating? in my 30s I got the bright idea to have salmon almost every night for dinner. Didn't think the overdose of fish oil in it.
I stopped the salmon and ate more bread... all better.
I would ask the doctor for a Fit blood in the stool test. My doctor refused to speculate and only wanted to do a colonoscopy.

Antibiotics are not used to treat viral infections . Lots of WAGs in this thread. See your doctor and get some bona fide diagnostics done instead of floundering around speculating.
I was in the hospital for something similar to it recently, but was getting stomach cramps from air getting trapped so didnt wait as long as you.
You really need to hydrate in the meantime, they immediately had me on a water IV.. They never did figure anything out for me, assuming it was food poisoning, but normally over that in 2-3 days, this lasted over 2 weeks.
Someone already mentioned a probiotic, I would start there.
I already had COVID back in December. After 10 days in quarantine, I was fine. It started happening a few weeks afterwards.
No. My diet has always been generally the same. I usually eat a healthy, balanced diet.
Do you eat a lot of salad? Could be, some kind of bacteria that was on the lettuce or something. That happened to my SIL, and she had it for at least a month.
