hello.plz help.
Every time im in a classroom i feel that i need to use the restroom and take a poop. Especially when im not allow to go to the restroom cry cry . Then i would start to feel hot and it makes it worse. I get scare to go poop because its embarrassing and i would poop 3 times a day minimum-max 6. I use to poop once or twice a day. It started four months ago when i started to use the restroom often. This also happened to me when i was in fifth and and sixth grade, but then i stop. Now I'm in 11th grade and it started to happen again.
Is this happening to someone else too or has pass through it?
How can i make it stop?

Hi Aid

Welcome to the forum.

Sorry to hear you are having these symptoms.

Anxiety can cause bowel problems so it may be down to anxiety but remember I am not a doctor so it might be a good idea to make an appointment with yours. Be honest with them and tell them how you are feeling and what symptoms you have been getting.

If it is down to anxiety a lot can be done to help reduce your anxiety and your doctor should know about what would be best suited to you.

Stay with us and keep posting.

Hello Aid and welcome.

I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing anxiety...and its symptoms.

As Hibee and D.S. mentioned, this is part of the body's reaction to stress.

Talking to your doctor about anxiety managment...as well as possibly seeking the help of your school's counselor could help you set some good goals for relieving stress.

For now, check out our Resources at the top of our main page here for great self-help links to reduce anxiety and symptoms.

Best wishes and post anytime for support!
