      @Pinkyisevil yes some people are really sympathetic and others don’t understand the extremity of the disorder or the absolute need to leave for the restroom then and there

      For me it’s explaining it to friends and teachers and with volleyball and sports it’s hard to explain to coach and their first thing they is what I’m eating 😒

      I've had accidents while out of the house several times because my need to get to get to a restroom was so urgent. That's definitely the worst for me.

        @loveshespoke a lot of anxiety comes from a fear of that. especially at school, i’ve had a lot of teaches not permit me to use the bathroom when i ask and i begin to sweat an insane amount. once i ran out of the room and didn’t even ask

          @marie19 this was such a major fear of mine when I was in high school. I asked for a note from my doctor for all my teachers + school nurse so that I could go anytime and even use nurses bathroom so I wouldn’t have to wait on line but it still gave my anxiety just thinking about having to go through all that.

      I get nauseous really often. I also have to go to the bathroom immediately when I get the urge, because otherwise it's much worse later.

      For me, I'm nauseous all the time, so I can't tell when I'm hungry or not. I'll either eat too much or too little during a day because I always feel uncomfortable 😥
