1. I agree, it has not been long since the workshops.
2. one reason you progressesd so well on the workshop is that you did not have any expectations; then once you had done well, you struggled because you now expected to be able to pee and it created a performance pressure. So...
3. When you go, go in the frame of mind thats says "it does not matter if I do not pee cos I can go again in five minutes".
4. Pick up Ian's excellent advice in his posting "I have occasionally misfired in a crowded toilet, gone to wash my hands, composed myself, and tried again successfully".
5. Check Scooters' rules: " In the toilet, your body will either decide to pee or decide not to pee. You can't force it. So stop trying. All you can do is keep an unwavering belief that the natural decision is to pee".
On the workshop you saw what you can do: its as if you had jumped from finding it difficult to ride a bike, to suddenly riding one on a tighrope. Now you have become very conscious of how scary that is to a beginner, and are thinking too much about it, instead of letting the body do the necessary balancing automatically.
If it would help, give me a ring.
