Disconnect From Bodily Functions

I’ve never felt β€œhungry” before. My stomach does growl if I go too long without eating, but I don’t actually feel hunger, if that makes sense. I can continue on with my day and feel fine. Usually I end up eating when I get a headache because I want the pain to go away.

Same thing happens when needing to go to the bathroom. I only notice I have to pee if my stomach gets bloated because my bladder is full.

Do you guys experience this too? (Also sorry if the bathroom bit was TMI).

what triggered this post is my coworker, unprompted, telling my other coworker about her child’s poop. what the fuck? did not ask to hear that, at all!

They are sedated like in a medical coma? Do they pee through a catheter? Do they eat through a tube? How do they poop? Do they wear diapers?

Ever feel embarrassed by normal bodily functions just because you’re fat?

This is probably the dumbest post I’ll ever make on Reddit but do you guys ever feel like you’re grosser than everyone else when you fart, burp, or poop just because you’re fat? Like I know literally everyone does it but I feel like I’m grosser than everyone else who does it just because I’m fat.

Maybe I’m alone in this irrational fear but does anyone else feel the same? I feel like if I fart on accident I would be seen as a fat slob maybe compared to it be seen as funny from someone else.

Keto works really well for me but heavily impacts bodily function

Hi all, so like the title suggests, I really like keto because it helps boost my energy and I feel much healthier while I'm on it. However, my period is so erratic while I'm on it that I either get my period every 2 weeks or I don't get it at all. This always makes me want to come off of keto, and when I do my period regulates itself again. I read that this can happen because estrogen is stored in fat, so the quick loss of fat can impact your period.

Has anyone else had this experience? Is there anything I can do to mitigate this? Is this something that would go away after the initial weight loss? I would really like to stick to keto long-term, but I don't want to deal with this.

Always Advocate For Yourself-I Feel Awful. TW: CSA and Bodily Functions (Not to Explicit)

So, I am sitting at home now trying not to cry. I will try and keep this short. I was sexually abused by my sibling as a child and everyone knew it and gave zero fucks.

I have a really hard time advocating for myself and have learned to with the help of my therapist. I started anti anxiety and antidepressant in April. I wish I had started earlier.

Anyway, I and type two diabetic and my former doctor put me on Metformin. I told him I didn’t like it because it gave me bad stomach issues and I had massive diarrhea. He told me β€œit’s the best out there”.

So like and idiot I kept using it and having yo either run to the bathroom or take tons of immodium. This was going on, I am embarrassed to say for years. I kept begging him to take me off metformin and he refused. I should have looked for a new doctor but I just felt trapped and anxious.

Fast forward to September this year and I am so much pain I can longer sit down comfortably and there was other stuff I won’t get into because it is gross. I see a colorectal doctor and she told me a have a really bad fissure. The metformin and diarrhea did damage. I almost burst into tears. She said that I will get Botox.
I got the Botox and had a follow up today.

Unfortunately the fissure still hasn’t healed and I need more Botox with a possibility of surgery.

All because I didn’t advocate for myself stronger. I should have demanded my former doctor get me off metformin. I have a wonderful new primary doctor I saw in October and she was so sorry for me. She said β€œthere are tons of type medication available”

She prescribed two other ones and I have no stomach issues.

I feel so stupid for not being more forceful. Sorry for the long post I just had to get this out. I am a fucking idiot.

I’m going to now try and not cry and watch some Netflix. Again ladies always advocate for yourself.

Potential TMI about bodily functions

I’m currently diagnosed with fibro and sjogrens, we’re still looking and testing to see if anything else or anything else appears. My mom has the same conditions but nothing else found with her so far.

Anyway, this is more of a vent I suppose as I feel alone and I hate that at 23 I need to ask for accommodations at an office job for extra bathroom breaks because about every other hour at work I feel like I’m going to shit myself. I’m normally okay outside of work so maybe it’s more stress related and I’m stressed because they’re monitoring us so heavily. It just sucks, it happens at other times too but it’s not always as consistent at work. I realize some people are so affected by their symptoms they can’t work and I should be grateful I can but it just sucks have it these issues. I kinda feel like my life was stolen from me

LPT: when house training your puppy, learn to use positive reinforcement rather than punishment/shaming whenever possible. If they lose some control of any bodily functions in old age, the last thing either of you will want is for them to expect punishment and feel afraid of you or ashamed.

This also goes for the little accidents that can happen to any dog in their adult life. A positive trainer told our class this years and years ago, and it really stuck with me and feels like a useful thing for people with new dogs ❀️

AITA for making my bf self conscious about his bodily functions

I’ll preface this by saying I don’t feel the same way about him as I do myself. I’ve burped infront of my boyfriend once and I almost started crying I was so humiliated. He’s asked me why I never fart around him and I explained that if makes me feel really disgusting. He got upset at me saying that when I go through lengths to hide my bodily functions it makes him feel gross for not doing the same. He farts and burps infront of me all the time and I usually just say laugh/joke and move on. I’ve never said anything to make him self conscious. And maybe if he feels self conscious he shouldn’t do it, he can choose to do whatever he wants. AITA here?

Swallowing problems, hyperaware of bodily functions

The last two months have been awful. Every time I’m hungry, even if I have an appetite beforehand, I cannot stop gagging on my food. Particularly salty foods are the worst.

I’ve lost 16 lbs. One week my anxiety was pretty okay and I noticed I was able to eat and swallow.

I am a huge emetophobe. I’ve been obsessively spending 10+ hours on my phone googling symptoms. I now have stomach and bowel symptoms and I’m convinced it’s some sort of cancer. The swallowing problems reappeared. They started happening only at restaurants. I was so nauseated I couldn’t finish my food. This happened a few times. I started refusing to go out to eat. It then started happening at home even when I wasn’t really thinking about it. Eventually it let to me gagging on even water.

I don’t know what to do anymore. It’s literally making me want to die every time it comes back. I’m doing CBT but my therapist thinks I needed to be medicated first before even being able to try some of the things she recommends because it’s so bad. My throat is always tight, feels like it’s watering, my mouth gets watery, I recognize this and feel nausea and then I panic when I can’t swallow.

Would love any advice and encouragement because I’m going crazy.

This is embarrassing to say: a lot of times during session when discussing my csa, my vaginia "pulses". I don't really know how to explain the feeling.

It's not arousing, at least I don't think so.

It's more of an uncomfortable, distracting feeling my body has when discussing my csa.

I know they DO eat and drink, but I'm wondering if they HAVE TO.

Also, if they do need to eat, do they likewise need to urinate and defecate? Having a hard time imagining Sauron on a Mordor-themed toilet.

IUDs for trans masculine people is probably the most demeaning and dysphoric thing I've experienced so far in my 33 years alive.(trigger for talk of body and bodily functions)

Oh dear God..... I'm a 33 year old trans masculine person. My monthly cycle makes me..... well its fucking traumatic.( I cant fathom being okay with it. But I know people who are totally ok with spontaneous hemorrhaging at inopportune times and places) I'm infertile so theres never been a need for an IUD. But due to me freaking the f out every month they suggest it. I had no idea what I signed up for. I see commercials, makes it look so easy. Bullshit. This happened an hour ago and I really need to vent. Here ya go. I get to the womans center (already uncomfortable) and well, it's full of women. I stick out like a sore thumb. (Awkward, but w/e) they take me back and explain all the info I needed. Then they say, there will be cramping for a few days and that tylenol and a heat pad will be my best friend. That caught my attention but I'm not prone to menstrual cramps so I figure I'll ignore it.

Well everything goes normal.... which is horrifying. I'll assume everyone knows what a speculum is. These demeaning torture devices are pretty common. Well.... then they use some other gadget to crank open my cervix or w/e (im no scientist) and the nurse is suddenly talking about my job and telling me to wiggle my toes to distract me from the fact I'm being ripped in two. I'm dizzy at this point.... jeezus it was terrible. Then they shove a peice of metal in there and leave it. Now understanding that was going to happen and it happening are too different things. Cause my body just takes it as I've been seriously injured and theres shrapnel left over. They pull everything out and leave....... I can barely stand, and theres iodine and lube leaking out of me. I have no pants on, and I'm in some of the most intense organ pain I've ever experienced. And suddenly the hatred at what I was born as hit me like a ton of bricks. How was that....... normal and routine? I felt violated and abused. This body makes me feel so out of control over my own body and self....... where people can just reach inside and leave metal in my organs with little being in the way......... fuck...... well. Now I'm in the shower, in way more pain than I was expecting today venting.... thank you for listening.

Honoring God with your Bodily Functions, Guidance for Attendants

July 31, 2021

Dear brothers,

Our loving Creator designed our bodies to no only accept nourishment but to cleanse itself of waste (1 Samuel 24:3). It is a simple fact that the flock will have to tend to these needs during times of spiritual feeding. The Service Department has prayerfully considered this and are therefore issuing guidance to attendants so they can be sure the brothers and sisters are honoring God with their bodily functions.

Please note that this direction is to be implemented as soon as our regular meeting in Kingdom Halls resumes.

When an attendant notices a brother leaving the auditorium for the bathroom, he should take several things into consideration before choosing the appropriate course of action. Namely:

-is this the first time he's left? -how long does he spend away? -does he make a habit of it? -is he accompanied by anyone not of his household? -is he considered exemplary in the congregation?

A single trip to the bathroom is not to be cause for concern if it is not excessively long. But a dilligent attendant will take note of the time a brother leaves and keep track of it accordingly. How long should he be permitted? This is a matter of personal discretion, but anything over three minutes may begin to cause concern. It is imperative that our fellow brothers do not miss more of the program than they have to (Heb 10:25). So how should an attendant seek to correct his brother? Get your brother's attention by gently knocking on the stall door, and lovingly remind him that he cannot benefit from the God's spiritual feast if he spends too much time away. Surely such a timely reminder will be appreciated!

Perhaps it's observed that a brother goes into the bathroom many times over the course of a meeting. Do not jump to conclusions, be sure to gather all of the facts before acting (Prov 13:6). Have a conversation with your brother, perhaps just before he proceeds into the bathroom. Ask him if he is experiencing some medical condition or other circumstance that necessitates his frequent leaving. If this is the case, offer assistance. Ensure the public address system is equipped to deliver the meeting program into the washroom via speakers. Is he bringing his smart tablet along so he can follow along while indisposed? What if his condition prevents him from commenting? Nothing is preventing you from accompanying him into the stall with a microphone so he may give comments without hindrance. Seldom is this level of love and concern di

Anxiety over bodily functions Tw: mention of sa

The world is strange, but for me the self is even stranger. In the past two years I smoked a lot of weed (but haven’t since may) and tried a few psychedelics, that and a traumatic SA sent me into a long dissociative episode I’m not sure I’m out of. I don’t know if I’ve heard any one share the same kind of anxieties I do. I’m weirded out by my own eye movement, looking at my hands, feet, my brain, hair. I get the purpose of these things but it doesn’t make it any less strange. it’s like in the past year all these normal parts of being human have become alien to me. I’ve been on high doses of cymbalta and seroquil (need to get back into therapy) for a while I just feel like my brain will never go back to normal, the bottom line is I’m scared, does anyone relate?
