Bathroom Woes

My problem is a little strange. I have bathroom anxiety. It happens whenever I stay at someone else's house. I almost always wake up really early in the morning, feeling perfectly fine. The problem begins when I hear someone else in the bathroom. As soon as I know I can't get in there, I get a sick stomach and feel like I need to use the toilet. Sometimes, I get really hot and dizzy. Basically, I panic. I try telling myself this is all in my head, but when the bathroom is free and I go in, I actually have to use it. The whole situation has me kind of frustrated and annoyed. Any suggestions on how I can overcome my nerves and get rid of my bathroom problems?

Hi sounds kind of like me except my problem is I am unable to go, unless i have a full bladder, and I always feel gasy if I am using a public bathroom, so I have to hold in my gas until someone flushes the toilet then i fart as the toilet is flushing, i try to avoid public bathrooms at all costs, I've had this problem since I was 8 years old.
