I am a spanko ... the
anticipation and anxiety that goes with the lead-up to sessioning causes my IBS to flair up. Usually, when I finally meet the domme, it seems to magically go away, but leading up to that moment, I keep having to go to the bathroom, and I feel terrified that I'll be farting or having to go during the session! (Luckily that hasn't happened). ... do you have any type of regiment you go through to prepare your digestive system before a session, like adding a supplement or cutting out certain foods?


I think that 2 or 3 days before your session you should cut out foods that you know to cause a flare up, but the root of this particular problem seems to be the anxiety.

When it comes to anxiety, something I struggle with myself, I recommend CBT to begin with. And by CBT I don't mean cock and ball torture. (Though some might actually benefit from that as well!) I mean Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I won't go into too much detail here, because in all honesty people come to me for professional counseling for things like this, but you can easily look up CBT techniques and apply them to your situation.
