is this similar to metimuchil

It's not granular, there's no sugar. It takes less and you need to drink it fast or it will gel up quickly. I like to use a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and a drop or two of stevia extract in the water before mixing; helps it to mix better and taste good.

Is the powder I bought raw or has been cooked in any way?

Hi Von,Thanks for your question! Yes, Viva Naturals Psyllium Husk Powder is raw as it is not exposed to heat during processing. Upon harvesting our organic psyllium seeds, the husks are separated from other plant fragments. We gently crush the husks to yield a soft, fine powder without the use of chemicals or harsh solvents, thus preserving its nutritional integrity. I hope this information is helpful! If you have any other questions or concerns, please email us directly at customercare@vivanaturals.com. ElisabethViva Naturals Customer Care

is this product habit forming?

It wouldn't be this product that's habit forming, but the prolonged use. Your bowels will become accustomed to having either stool softeners or laxatives move the waste along for them. So you'd have to continue taking stool softeners or you'd remain constipated even after the original cause of your constipation has been aleviated.

Can you cook with this?
