Is it normal to hate peeing in crowded bathrooms?

84% Normal
12 Comments

I physically cant pee when I know a bathroom is crowded at school and other places. if its crowded it intimidates me and if theres one guy in there than they'll be listening to me pee and I feel awkward! I always wait till the coast is clear and try to pee as quickly as possible at school before someone comes in. its not as bad if its at a mall with strangers or some place else but at school its different. I try to tell myself that everyone pees and its normal and sounds the same but I just cant do it. like my bladder becomes shy and shuts down.

    I don't have this problem, but some of my friends think It's awkward and I can see why so you're 100% not alone

    I'm a nice person, so when someone is in the cubicle taking a dump I'll slide my hand underneath and yank their leg so they poo easier :)

    Society owes me

    This used to make me uncomfortable, too. As I got older, it became a convenience issue, and I moved past being pee shy. I've been to stadiums, state fairs, and concerts where the men's room door is propped open and the urinals are visible from outside. I used to hate the open door, but now it doesn't bother me in the least if someone looks in and watches me while I pee. We all have to pee.

    you must be a dude. poor dudes get the shaft as far as bathrooms go. You can't even take a dump w/o worrying that some dude is gonna come in the bathroom and see and smell your business for most public restrooms w/o doors on the stalls. and taking a piss you have to do it in front of other dudes.. that's gotta suck too. ya'll get no privacy.

    Going to the bathroom is one thing in which people generally want privacy. It's entirely normal to not feel comfortable going to the bathroom in a crowd.

    I don't like it when others are there. It makes me uncomfortable...

    I used to have the same problem. It's just social anxiety really.
    this is when you need to transport your mind to that happy place, that shimmering oasis.
    I find by transporting myself elsewhere my body (including my bladder) relaxes up and I pee.

    Blame it on strict toilet training. These days, it's in style to make everything someone else's fault.
