    Yes, the extreme pressure of… using a public restroom. 🙄

      Just because you don’t have any issues doesn’t mean other people don’t. I, myself, have a lot of anxiety when it comes to using urinals and have trouble sometimes. Why? No idea. Having to piss doesn’t override the anxiety, so you just end up feeling miserable.

        Yeah, I just didn’t realize it was so common. Sorry, that sucks. Are you an otherwise confident and secure person?

          Yes, other than pissing I’m pretty confident.

          No,. I have no idea why peeing in private is important to my lizard brain. It wasn’t when I was a kid.

          It’s okay. Sorry I got snippy back at you. Funny enough, most of the time I feel as if I am very confident and secure. Naturally as people do I have my times where that slips, but I’d say 80% of the time I’m cool as a cucumber

            No worries, I think a lot of people thought I was being an ass instead of honestly just having never thought about it. I wonder if it has something to do with growing up in a big family and playing sports and stuff. Like, I think I just became to desensitized to it. If I needed privacy to pee, I would probably wouldn’t have peed through all of high school and college lol.

            The amount of time I’ve dumped a whizzer while someone was right next to me, talking to me, or once while two other people were in a tiny bathroom at a party… at bars where there was no urinal and no door on the stall… that last one was a pretty notorious bathroom, because like I said, the stall had no door, but also the door to the bathroom itself was a pair of those swinging doors like in wild west movies. I’ll admit having to take a shit while you could still see the people at the bar was pretty awkward. One of my favorite dive bars. 🤣
