(Anonymous) 2013-07-25 02:15 am (UTC)(link)Pooping at work sucks, but I'd rather poop at work than go back to being chronically constipated.

Deandra helped me get over my fear of pooping in public restrooms. Since I've made some dietary changes that cause me to be more regular, this has become pretty important.

Honestly, I get it. Pooping in a public restroom is awkward and embarrassing. I don't think it should be because everyone does it and it certainly can't be helped, but... That doesn't change things for most people.
I just tell myself, “If someone judges you for this that's their problem." Then poop. While whistling. (Okay, I don't whistle, but now I want to.)

(I have no problems with pooping in a public restroom but I'm TERRIFIED of pooping in other people's houses.)

(Anonymous) 2013-07-25 01:17 am (UTC)(link)I used to never poop at work (I work in an office setting) but I made myself get over that because it was getting painful. However, I flush after each 'drop'. Lessens the burden on anyone coming in, ya know?
But never a public restroom. They're dirty as hell usually and NO. Just nevernonono.

And at work, I go to a different floor to poop, usually the floor with accountants (sad to say, not many women there, but hey, empty bathrooms!). I can't poop around my coworkers because we have to go back to the office together and that's weird. And unless I'm sick, I don't poop in other public spaces, but that's because I don't sit on public toilets. *germaphobe*

(Anonymous) 2013-07-25 02:42 am (UTC)(link)But me? I feel embarrassment/anxiety over peeing in public restrooms.
Yes. That's fucking right. For some reason, my brain has decided to freak out over the possibility of someone in a restroom hearing me tinkle -- despite the fact that it's a pretty safe bet that others in a restroom have also come to tinkle. For years, I would go into a bathroom, enter a stall, and just sit there, waiting until it seemed like I was alone before peeing. Sometimes, if the wait stretched for too long, I would leave without doing my business and resolve to hold it. After a time, I graduated to simply waiting until someone nearby flushed a toilet, as the flushing noise would mask the sound of my pee. The problem with this, of course, was that if no one flushed within a respectable amount of time, I would still have to leave.
I'm "better" now in the sense that I can force myself to pee no matter what. But my anxiety still spikes if there's someone present to "listen" to my tinkling. "Won't they think I'm disgusting? Won't they cringe at the knowledge that what they hear is the sound of someone else's urine striking the water of the toilet?"
So, OP? I get you. I might not get you in precisely the same way, but I get you. I'm glad that something has helped you to overcome your anxiety. And should it ever return, I want you to remember: it could be worse; you could be afraid to pee.

People have weird ideas about pooing, I guess is my point.
