Is it normal that using the bathroom makes me feel better mentally?

Sometimes when I'm feeling really stressed and anxious and my mind is all foggy, I go to the bathroom then I feel better. I was usually holding my bladder and the release clears my mind. Is this normal?

    My best ideas come while I'm taking a nice fat shit.

    Reminds me of this "Far side" comic where this kid is raising his hand and saying, "Can I go to the restroom, my brain is full."

    Just seems like you need to piss more often, it probably helps to not be holding it in

    I know a girl that did that. It helps but you gotta use it as help to grow instead of a way to hide.

    Serial killers piss the bed in childhood a lot because they hold it and hold it too long. Because they are, shit you not, enjoying the tension. Weird huh

      Yes, yes. Daria's boredom led her to a detached interest in our sick sad world. I identify with her. Thanks for the diagnostic factoid.

          Yep. Despite her substandard social attitude, her intelligence was up in your league. The two of you sort of need cats with an IQ no less than 118.

            I don’t know, it’s standardised testing so pretty flawed.

              Agreed. Autodarwination, and failure to recognize irony are better indicators of the lower 98% of the distribution, I suppose. I always thought Daria's construction boots kind of matched the dress she wore every day. Her glasses added a mathematical touch. Cool look.
