Does anyone have ocd attached to like the way your body functions bc for the longest time I’ve had trouble with going too much too the restroom bc I feel like I always need to pee even after I just went or even while I’m still on the toilet it still feels as if I have more to pee but really it’ll only be a few drops or nothing at all but I feel the need to let it all out or I won’t be comfortable. It’s the most irritating thing bc I can’t sleep unless it’s all out and I stay in the restroom for too long. It causes an uneasiness that makes me way to scream bc no matter how hard I try it doesn’t go away. I would really like to know if anyone has something similar and if there’s some way I can deal with it bc I always just end up forcing myself to ignore and try to wait until I really have to go but it always ends up making me go to the restroom if it feels like i have a bit left over

I have the same thing. Usually I try to resist but I get anxious and irritated if I don't go through with it. It's a very uncomfortable feeling

Then you start feeling it again and curse while dragging yourself to the restroom but yes we’re all in this one together we couldn’t wish this stuff on our worst enemy

It’s really comforting knowing you’re not the only one. It’s really difficult to deal with especially when you’re with friends or family and they complain but you can’t even begin to explain just how much more frustrating it is for you especially wen you’re not sleeping well bc of it

I have the same problem but I wait alot until usually when I really have to go but like when I am getting ready for work I feel like I still have to go even after I just went because I don't like having to go when I am working because I take forever all because of my OCD rituals are REALLY bad when it involves going to the bathroom.

Oh wow, other people have this too! I do exactly the same thing! Sometimes I’ll stand in the bathroom for long periods of time too, just so I don’t have to inevitably repeat the routine again later. Nothing worse than getting in bed and then having to get up and clean again.

i’ve experienced this since i was like ten because i got ridiculed for (tmi) wetting the bed! i can’t sleep until im empty and get up like every two mins at night even tho i barely have anything in there and only a few drops come out. i lose sm sleep over it and had tests done, they said i just have an overactive bladder. still dont understand why i gotta go every 2 mins. im just really afraid of wetting the bed or getting a uti from holding it in for too long

Yeah I have this too. I go to the bathroom until no more drops come out. It annoys me when it’s time for bed because I’ll have to urinate before I get in bed and then at least one more time while I’m trying to fall asleep.

Exactly you don’t want to be interrupted by going to the restroom as well I’m too of it all but it’s becoming a ritual of itself

That is my exact same routine on good days I try to avoid drinking water bc it gets worse if I do and I always procrastinate sleeping to not have to go to the restroom or start the cycle of getting up more than once
