Hi Adam Two things 1. It is common to find that the toilets are empty; this comes as a great surprise to guys who up till then have been avoiding them! But it does go to show that if you have a misfire, you can always walk out, and pop back in a bit later. 2. you need to get used to standing at a urinal doing nothing, and not being bothered by it. We recommend "faking it" i.e. when you do not need a pee, go in and stand there for 30 - 60 secs. The first time feels really odd; but by the sixth time you will be bored, which is good. This is a good technique to a) enable you to handle a long hesitation time i.e. the time between ready to start peeing, and the flow starting and b) to get used to a challenging situation, before starting graduated exposure there. cheers Andrew
