Re: Scared to go to the toilet??
I had a fear of going to the toilet too when my HA was at its highest. I was scared I would have severe diarrhea and would pass out from weakness or the pain as I had felt that so much while sitting on the toilet. I would hold in pees and poos which was a bad idea and it was bloody painful. I would only go to the toilet at home and if my partner would stand at the bathroom door just to make sure if I fainted or anything, he could help me. This fear was at that high level for about a month. Now I only ask him to stand if I have diarrhea whereas I would make him go with me even if it were only a pee.
