Continuation of step-by-step instructions for anxious people - to help relieve anxiety if you want, but cannot, go to the toilet outside your home. Start here: Part 1 https://www.b17.ru/article/409879/?prt=878096 Part 2 https://www.b17.ru/article/409991/?prt=878096 So, you are in the toilet, did their job. Wash your hands with soap, you can also wash your face, use cologne, deodorant if possible. Look at yourself in the mirror, take a breath and exhale, praise yourself for what you did, put on a confident face and go to the guests. If leaving the toilet you imagine (and this is most likely the case) how someone or everyone knows, what were you doing there, and they will also point at you, say, ask, “What the hell were you doing?” You experience fear, horror and shame, you worry again... (we are now coping with this anxiety) be prepared to say in response, “Yes, I went to shit, but what?”, “It’s so great to shit here,” “And I have nowhere else,” “I’ve always dreamed of taking a shit right here,” or something like that, thereby confusing the prankster of the manipulator and relieving yourself of the remaining anxiety and tension. Let’s consider another, more complex case, if you find yourself visiting with someone alone, for example, this is a date, or you came to visit a guy/girlfriend where her/his parents are also present. Such meetings are usually planned in advance. For most people, the urge to go to the toilet occurs at approximately the same time of day. If this is the case for you, consider whether the time of visiting guests will coincide with your urges. Maybe you can organize a meeting at a time when such a situation will be excluded. If, nevertheless, you find yourself in such a situation and you want it, and you are embarrassed, endure it, if possible. If it’s impossible to endure, and it’s already pressing so hard that oh-oh-oh, there’s no way out, then go and do it, the poop will fly out like a bullet after such a long abstinence that no one will even guess whether you went to pee or poop there. And one more thing. It’s better to let everyone know why you went to the toilet than to endure and, God forbid, not be able to stand it and shit your pants in front of everyone - you must admit, this is much worse.
