I just thought I’d share something with everyone. I just completed the 2nd course last weekend and one of my objectives was to visit a large and very busy motorway service station toilet on Tuesday and Thursday nights. This evening I left the fluid loading until it was a bit late and then left work and drove to the services. When I got out of the car my level was no more than 5 but I walked into the toilets anyway. I walked into the toilet and went to the corner urinal. I breathed, dropped my shoulders and waited but nothing immediately happened. There were other people at urinals and 2 of the cubicles were occupied. I breathed in a few more times but still nothing happened. Then the value of the course became clear, I didn’t get stressed, I didn’t panic, I just stood there for perhaps 3 minutes and eventually it happened. Prior to the course I would never have been able to stand calmly at a public urinal while other came in after me, did their business, washed their hands and left with me standing there the whole time. That is exactly what happened and in the end what was there came out and I left a happy man. The salient point here is that the courses work and so if you haven’t been on one get you should definitely get yourself on one
