I can't tell you how thankful I am for this site. I just found it today. There have been times in my life it was no problem to take a piss in any situation. There have been other times the stage fright happened. For some reason, the last 2-3 years, this has been a bigger problem for me. Before going somewhere or doing an activity, I think ahead to make sure I can piss without having to use a public restroom. I hate doing this. Concerts & sporting events are the worst. I go to the restroom at home 2-3X to make sure I have an empty bladder. If going out for beers, well, it's gonna need to be emptied out. I always get upset with myself for not being able to go to the men's room and go. That changed today, reading so many other stories. It is a great relief knowing I am far from alone. I've read about techniques like holding your breath and counting back from 100. I am going to use these going forward. If I fail, I won't get upset and just keep improving. I want to thank everyone for their stories and advice. It is good to be here.
