going to the toilet the aspie way.

Post Reply New Topic

i have been curious for a while, but, when i sit and read, either a book or e-mails.....i focus and concentrate, start to do the aspie zone in thing...but as soon as i do start to focus or get comforatble..i need to go and take a dump.
it is like my body is saying to me ok we know your going to sit for a while, we know you like to focus we are going to evacuate the bowels now.....i know it is a silly onbservation, but i also know aspies suffer from hyptonia and lose ligaments/ joints, but i ws wondering if anyone else has to dump when they concentrate. or should i think of another cause of this unusual experience?

every time
yeah.?

I generally need a no. 1.

here's a trick i learned if you don't want to get splashed in the butt while going #2. place a piece of toilet paper square in the water before you go. wahlah no splash.

Well, I have experienced this too but haven't linked it with the focusing, but more with the relaxation and comfort. As a kid, especially at night when I was lying in bed, supposed to be sleeping but instead was entertaining all sorts of imaginative adventures or thoughts of that kind I would suddenly experience the need of relocating to the 'relief facility'.
So my guess would be that it is merely our bodies' way of using the opportunity for waste disposal, when we feel comfortable, unbothered and therefore have the time to sit and relax for a while in the bathroom. And it makes sense if you take a step backward and look at the connection with the animal kingdom. I mean, a bunny doesn't have time to take a crap when pursued by a fox now does it so when in stress our digestive system goes on to spare flame, slows down. And when it registers that there is time, it just makes it spin again.
Or am I completely off track here?

Are speaking of going to clean it or ? If to clean it. I usually wear a bio-hazard suit And for added protection use a twelve foot long pole (brush attached at end of course).

Speaking of using the bathroom, does anyone else get stage fright when they go? I'm fine if I use my home toilet with someone watching TV in the next room, or in a crowded or completely empty public restroom (inside a stall, of course). But if I need to do no. 1 in a relatively quiet public restroom with someone else there, I can't go.

I hate to sit down in others bacterias in public toilets and I hate to piss together with strangers.

I just can't have a BM in Public. I just don't think that it's a polite thing to do. I have my BMs at home, which is the proper place to do so.

My waste is more deadly than anthrax.

In the space of maybe 10 years, I've only used a public toilet to do a number 2, less than half a dozen times. Once I was totally drunk and had eaten a big pizzahut meal earlier in the evening. Wasn't a nice experiance - The only thing I could think of was getting home to take a shower.

After a weird incident a few years ago, I cannot pee in a public urinal if there is someone else near me. I wait for a cubicle.

This has gone on from a very early age. When I was younger, I would wait until we got home to relieve myself. I've always suffered terrible anxiety over the smallest things.

same here, sit down to figure out a computer problem or in middle of an im or a yahoo pm i suddenly have to take a #2. this even happens when im in bedroom reading, holding or messing with the closers or on puter. wonder why is it i knwo its having to do with relaxation but i find nothing really that relazing about a messed up computer.

another odd thing is when im ticked off or not in a good mood that will cuase me to have to poo also( get accused of avoiding the situation by hiding)

im sure it would be silly and my dad would think i had lost my mind if i was taking a dump with computer or closers in the bathroom with me.

i had to get wireless it was such a problem for me.
but when im outside there is usually no problem..i dont have to go...but when i do, i have to go now, no warning.
still not convinced this is an aspie thing thou, not yet anyway.

yeah thats right, its the look ahead rule..and if some dude is checkign you out, he does get a dirty look.
creeps.
