I have had a habit, for as long as I can remember, of avoiding my number 2's. When I feel like I need to go, I'll sit on the floor, huddle up and clench my buttocks (lol this sounds so weird typing it) and like, quake my knees to make the feeling of needing to go go away. I'll do this even when there's a toilet down the hall. I've even done it in school a couple of times, if I know I'm alone.
Anyway, ineviatably I end up getting constipated by not going for maybe a week in some cases. And therefore, when I go it's painful and I suppose this makes me associate going with pain, so I keep avoiding it.
Does anyone else do this???!?!
After my first baby, my hormones in my body made it to where I was really, REALLY constipated and I quit drinking & eating animal products. I was pooping again freely in 3 days.
Try and poop. You'll feel better:)
But if you're doing it for so long that you're constipated, you should really stop.
This term has become more a description for someone who is over-picky, cerebral and obsessive, but your symptoms describe its original definition.
It is thought to originate during early childhood at the time of "potty-training" and involves issues of control, punishment and reward.
There is no typical character profile for people who have this condition, but they can be over-controlling and severely self-disciplined at one extreme, or they may be "people-pleasers" at the other.
As other people have pointed out, this could have a detrimental affect on your health in the long term. so it may be desirable to seek professional medical advice.
But then I found how good it feels to just let it out!
I realized i sounded so funny to not want to poop, but you really have to. I got over it and you can to
