It seems emophobia is well known, but instead of an intense fear of vomit, I have the anxiety of needing to go number 1 or 2 any time I'm anxious..

6 years ago it all came to be when my anxiety started and I went to a bday far away to a casino. When I had to take a leak in the beginning, I felt like I had to go just as urgently after.. I spent all evening in fear like I would wet my pants and it was the most horrible trauma ever..

The years after I would get this feeling so often when anxiety happened.. And it made me drop out of school and completely not go anywhere.

After lots of therapy, this issue is more under control and I can even work again. However as I kept pushing my anxiety more, diarrhea has joined the game. So now I have to use the bathroom again at annoying times.. It never stops huh.. 

I guess I just feel really alone in it. I would love to have friends who understood this and made it safe.. However if you think anxiety is already taboo talk, imagine adding a layer of tmi on top.. As a result I can go places easily with my gf, but not my friends.

Does any one have something like this? Where you got anxiety symptoms of ibs which took over life? If you do, please message me. I don't want anyone to feel alone like I did :(
