There Must be More Than Just 306's and Golf's?????

[Toms306]

I have a few comments in reply to your post but my first is that I was eating the whole time I read that post, take more than that to make me sick

My dad's mate I think has a similar problem to you, he doesn't let it bother him though, he'll pull up on the hard shoulder and shit on the embankment or in a bucket in the back of his van. Not glamorous I know but if the needs arises that's what he does.

The toilet phobia thing I personally understand. I only piss in public loos and will only drop the kids off at a toilet I'm comfortable with. However I don't let it affect me, when I was away for 12 days on my charity run earlier in the year I of course had to go at some point so I did the next best thing, bog roll on the seat. (You f*ckers can take the piss all you like, I just plain don't like sitting on a bog that strangers have been on.) Slightly off topic; If I drop food on the floor the 10 second rule comes into play but I won't do the above, strange how the mind rationalises things.

I think in relation to you saying the doctors won't/can't help, you say you've been because of peer pressure, I don't think they'd be able to help you until it's you who wants to go to them, not because we've got you to go. Once you want to go, you'll be more willing to accept the help and it might actually do that, help.

One last thing, and I'll be honest(possibly too honest or blunt but hey that's me) I thought something worse had happened. Not putting down your issue, just wasn't as major as I was expecting.

Well, I was trying to keep it nice for others that may not have such a strong stomach...lets just say, I left out the details - I wouldn't have liked being the one who had to clean that loo, floor, etc afterwards - and God help anyone that walked in there after me. I can at least see the funny side of it now.

With the TP, it's not just shit, can't wee when I'm out either, until I get familiar with the loo/surroundings. Which is another reason I can't go far/for long...because I'll literally piss myself before being able to use a public loo (it hasn't happened - yet!). And its not like I 'won't' go, its that I physically can't........there was a guy on embarrasing illnesses with the same problem a while back, but I never saw how he fixed it. I did manage to help it a bit though in college, where I obviously had to wee at some point - just incase anyone else has the same issue - close your eyes and count, by about 20 it should be flowing, if not give up and try again later.

I don't mind you being honest at all, it's not the fact that I almost shit myself in the car, afterall, shit happens - but its the fact that it 'could' happen again, and I have no idea when. And then because I'm thinking about it, the chance of it happening goes up too.

And anyone thats seen in my boot will know I have always got a spare pair of jeans and boxers and half a bog roll in there just incase lol - pretty sure I couldn't just shit on the hard shoulder like your uncle though tbh.

Good on you Tom. You know I have IBS aswel and it really is a kick in the teeth when you try to get out and do more. I used to be terrible with travelling but im mostly over it now (although still dont like going abroad) and I dont drink alcohol whatsoever, its just not worth it!

Unfortunately being triggered by stress it can get into a viscous circle but you need to sort out the mental side before the physical symptoms get better.

Anybody taking the piss out of Tom for his above post needs their head kicking in, just leave it out if youve got a twattyy comment.

Thanks Dan.

Yeah I know you do too......but I see on here and fb that you go to so many car shows and stuff and think 'well if Dan can do that, why can't I?'........ I saw you even went to FCS with that and your scaffolding on too and that did make me feel quite pathetic tbf.

As you don't drink either - whats your idea of a good night out?

Basically I drove down to chelmsford (over an hour away) to meet a lad off .net with some wheels. On the way, my guts started playing up (ibs ftl) and I got the services just in time for - there's no nice way to put this - 'mass evacuation'.

Dude I once shit myself in college when I was 18...did I stop going? No did I f*ck because life's too short to give a shit about embarrassment!

Honestly dude you either need to go to the doctors who WILL help but as was mentioned before steer clear of the anti-depressants they're a lady garden when I was on them (still supposed to be on them) I was like a f*cking zombie until they started kicking in and then I stopped taking them as I didn't like the fact that I didn't feel as if I was 'me' basically it felt as if I was somebody else but in my own body either way I stopped taking them felt like shit for ages and the doctors have finally decided that I might have been wrongly diagnosed with depression and I might actually be bipolar.

But honestly dude take a risk if you can't go anywhere without needing the loo then why don't you start taking out a couple of spare pairs of trousers and underpants etc at least then that will give you a little more confidence!

Good luck though mate and hope you get something sorted I'm pretty sure we're all behind you on this one.

How the hell did you get over something like that?? After my college incident, I had to tell the tutor why I kept having to nip to the loo, and of course everyone in class knew there was only place I could be going, I couldn't face going back in class for weeks so I stayed down in the library on the PCs to do my work, and chat to people on the forum lol. Luckily my tutor understood as he also has IBS and was very good about it and said I was allowed to the loo whenever, but I couldnt face everyone else knowing what I was doing - daft eh, as everyone has to shit! My attendance was terrible earlier in the year (although I was at college, just not in lesson!) but I did push myself towards the end and managed to get it back up to about 80% by the end......had been 100% through out school and college before that though.

Did reminded me of Will off the inbetweeners though, when he shat himself in an exam - things are always funnier when they happen to other people on tele aren't they!

Yeah I can't even take a hayfever pill so I certainly won't be taking anti depressants - I've heard boost is a good anti depressant though. And as said above, I do have spares just incase the worst happens - still doesn't make me feel any less worried about though.

so if i buy you some of these you will come to FCS next year?



and cheers for coming over today mate. Was good to see you and cheers for the help. Im pretty happy with the car atm!

Erm....no, lol, thats still fairly public!

And no worries, was good to get out of my house. And a bit of a blast down the A12 was quite fun I suppose, just a shame there were so many people in the way!

I see a flaw in the plan...If you have a few more pounds on you than Joe Bloggs when you sit on it. Well let's just say you won't be as happy as a pig in shit!

I'm only 8 and a half stone, don't think that would be a problem for me haha.
