peeing with people
I cannot, for the life of me, pee when someone else is in the bathroom. I will have to pee so bad and when I get to the bathroom and realize someone is in the stall next to me, my bladder seizes up and then I get paranoid that someone thinks I’m waiting for them to leave so I can take a poop.

You think you have a problem?
I had to do plops in toilets with no dividing walls and watch other girls do the same while at school
I am totally with you on this one.
Also, if I need to use feminine hygiene products, I will wait til someone flushes the toilet or turns on the hand dryer before I unwrap them because I am paranoid of people hearing the crinkling of the wrapper.
I just posted about the same thing!
I am the exact same way. It was horrible when I lived in dorms during my college years.
im like that with number 2….and if I was female, I could see myself like that all of the time.
My friend and I both share this problem so when we were within earshot of each other in restrooms we would scream “DON’T LISTEN TO ME” over and over until we were done peeing. For obvious reasons, this was only done when no one else was in the restroom but one time a secret bathroom lurker was in a stall unbeknownst to us. They emerged as we were washing out hands. SO. AWKWARD.
This condition is called paranephrosis, which is actually quite common, especially in men. I seem to remember there is actually a form of psych therapy to treat this. I’ve had it since I can remember and how I managed to cope with it is by breathing deep and bending my knees (in a non-obvious way) while at the stall. The more focus you put on your lower abdomen and breath, the easier it is to get to that heavenly moment when you can pee in front of someone else!
I’ve had this problem my whole life. It made it IMPOSSIBLE to go at school. Some times I would make myself almost sick waiting to get home so I could finally go.
I know this one is called Parcopresis. I have it too. I can’t go unless I am at home and alone. Makes traveling an awful experience.
I used to have this problem and I still do sometimes. The key is to think REALLY hard about peeing right before you go into the bathroom, so you’re “primed” and ready to go the moment you hit the urinal/stall.
I get that way when it’s number two. No matter how long it takes, I HAVE to wait for everyone to leave. I’ll even travel a longer ways, like in school, out of my way to a bathroom I know nobody will be in. Most of the time I won’t even consider doing it away from my house.
I had to pee at the beginning of Avatar and waited till the end. I thought my bladder was going to fail. I tried going with a person next to me and nothing happened. I thought I broke something.
