Anxiety and Running to the Bathroom?

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Sun Oct 01, 2006 5:53 pm

I have had this problem since I was a kid. And when I have to go, I have to go NOW! My folks kept an old enamel potty under the front seat of the car for me, it was that bad. I was also checked by a doctor and they found nothing.

I was in a play when I was 15 and had gone to the bathroom right before we got ready for the curtain to go up. Well, in 5 minutes, I had to go again. The director said "NO WAY" and to wait until Act one was over. Well, about 10 minutes later, I had wet my pants. I was SO UPSET and she acted like it was no big deal. I had on dark brown pants and it didn't show and the audience didn't know it, but all of the cast did. I had to wear the wet stuff for the next 2 1/2 hours! I was going to go and change and go to the cast party afterward, but some of the other kids started calling me "Puddles" and I just was too humiliated to do it.

EVER since then, I have a "Plan B" for just about anywhere or any situation I am in. I also have to wear pads now as I leak at times. I am SO GLAD that I have this problem! LOL! If I am stressed, anxious or anticipating something, I am in the bathroom at least hourly until it all is over and it doesn't matter what I drink or don't drink. I try to limit my fluids if I Know something is coming up, but then still go as much. I wonder where all of the "water" comes from.

Sure glad to know it isn't just me!

I think when I get anxious my system goes into overdrive.I have come to the realization that each time I pee I will have to do it again in less than 5 minutes. Then I can make it a good 45 minutes before it happens again. We even bought our tickets to the NASCAR race based on what was close to the aisle because I know I will be in and out.

P.S. Anita how much better woukd your anxiety be without all that caffeine! I will keep you in my prayers that you can kick the diet Dews.

LOL I actually go to the bathroom, especially at work, to escape! I may not even need to "go". I just need to get away from people and be by myself, so off I go!
