My anxiety eases if my mum or another female is with me, but I cant use them alone unless theres no one else in there. I hate waiting in the queues, with everyone looking at you, and then when you come out the cubicle, the queue stares at you. Sometimes I have trouble opening the doors, Im not very good with locks lol! Im also scared to find the toilet in new places.
Its even worse when theres only one cubicle in the toilets, I get scared that people will laugh because they can hear me!!!
So when Im out, I usually dont have a drink if I can help it, or I try to hang on. Sometimes I get so desperate that I have to do it but feel all panicky with it!
I think this toilet trouble started from an experience when I was about 7 when I was in a building with my parents and the building was almost closed & the lights were dim and some rooms were dark and I needed the toilet, so my mum had to come with me in the dark to find it!
