Hi. I used to have this problem really bad a few years ago, but it went away, but now it’s back. I really need to go to the bathroom, but I’m so anxious about people judging me for many things like how long I’m in the bathroom or how much toilet paper I use, etc.. This anxiety makes me not want to go. If anyone is near me when I need to go to a public washroom, I tend to freeze. I do my best to talk myself out of this fear, and eventually I do go, but it takes a lot of effort and energy to do a basic task. How do others cope with this?
