Hi! first time posting here...I have had a betta since March of last year, and for the past two months, he keeps getting constipated. He isn't "pineconey" or acting sick, so I'm pretty sure it isn't dropsy. I switch between feeding him "Betta Bites" pellets...

Here some info about her...

I've had a male betta for about 6 months. About a month ago he stopped swimming around the tank. He can only swim at the top with his upper fin sticking out of the water. If we try to help him go down into the tank he immediately pops back up to the top...

What color is your Betta?
How often are you changing the water? A quart is constipated.
Can you post a pic? Sounds like he may either be constipated or have swim bladder It sounds like he this possibly be feces?
Probably.

He's kinda getting lathargic too.
The only signs of anything is the bloated tummy.
Try daphnia too.
Maybe it's something other than constipation? It could be the start of dropsy, some sort of infection or even parasites.

One of my male bettas hasn't eaten in like 2 weeks. I can't believe he is still alive. I think he is constipated. So I gave him some peas but he doesn't eat that either. So what else can I do to treat this?

Refrain from feeding of Epsom Salt to some aged, temperature... .
Jab a bite size of pea with a toothpick then feed three or so bites to the betta.
It under hot water while removing the outter skin then dice it up in to betta bite size pieces.
