Going at work is the worst because I know lots of people, obviously. However, sometimes I'm OK, and sometimes I'm not. I notice that it usually happens when I'm anxious about something else going on in my life. Curse this problem! LOL.

Thanks for the post, with or without you!  I'm also afraid of public bathrooms for other reasons besides cleanliness. I'm always afraid that people can see you through the small cracks of the door  I always remember thinking, 'Can they see me? I hope not...' Then I would try to hurry and finish to prevent them from seeing; if it was possible that they could see me anyway. Another reason why I'm afraid to hover is because I'm frightened that someone might see through the crack and think/say, 'What is that girl doing? Why isn't she sitting down?' lol.
