When you need to pee that bad and you start, there's no stopping it. You may pause it for a few seconds, but the micturition reflex overcomes your sphincter and you will empty your bladder. Fortunately for you it happened out of public view! I must say that you did a masterful job of holding it as long as you did!

I love the description of the science behind this Fred! I think many men have been arrogant enough to think that having an accident as an adult is not a genuine possibility, but in reality, there’s some sort of equation related to how full our bladder is, how fast it is filling, and how long it will be until we reach an acceptable place to urinate, that ultimately will determine whether or not we stay dry. I also think that after the first leak, it is common to think we just need to focus more and try harder to hold it, but once that has happened, there really is no degree of “toughing it out” that will prevent us from wetting if we don’t quickly find a suitable place to release.

One of my most embarrassing moments of desperation happened when I was 18 while on a month-long backcountry service trip.

We were carrying everything for the month on our back, with the exception of a few food provisioning stops along the way. As a result, the packing list only allowed for minimal clothing…two pairs of underwear (boxers at the time), one pair of pants, and one pair of shorts.

On the day in question, we were about a week into the trip and had been building a trail all day. It was really hot and the crew leaders were having us drink two gallons of water per day! Needless to say, despite sweating a lot, I also had to pee a lot. It wasn’t a big deal with trees everywhere…until this day. We wrapped up trail building early and the guide told us that we were going to do a short hike and a planning session for the rest of the trip. I had definitely had to piss at that point so I walked into the woods with some of the other crew to water a tree. When I pulled down my pants, though, I COULD NOT get started. My bladder froze up as I felt like everybody was waiting on me. Well, I figured, I must not have to go that bad if I can’t pee…so I pulled up my pants and continued up the hill.

My mistake was being ashamed of getting pee shy and not just stepping off the trail a little bit later to go…and I almost paid severely for it. As we continued up the trail, I could feel my bladder sloshing and I was starting to get desperate. With each step there was a little pulse and I was consciously tightening to keep anything from leaking out.

We got to the top of the hill, and immediately, our guide told us to sit in a circle. We started going around discussing what each of us wanted to do for the rest of the trip…and it felt like it was taking FOREVER. As people continued to talk I was not so subtlety grasping myself, trying to hold it in. It was probably only 10 minutes before my turn to speak, about 60% of the way through the group, and by that point I was absolutely bursting and felt like I was about to pee my pants. Wetting what little clothes I had on the trip in front of the entire group was just not an option. I would never live it down.

As I was speaking, I felt a cramp in my bladder and the muscles started to feel weak. I wasn’t going to be able to hold it to the end of the session. As I finished my turn, I stood up and said “and please excuse me” as I grabbed myself and hobbled out of sight behind a tree. I barely got my red plaid boxers and hiking pants shoved down before I started pissing hard. After peeing for a long time, I inspected my boxers and found only a small wet spot from a spurt when I stood up. I had made it! When I got back to the group, the guide reiterated the importance of participating in the whole planning session.

While I was embarrassed at being called out, at least my pants were dry.

@jzag1981 Smashing account, thanks. If it had been me, in the situation you were in, I don't think I'd have been able to speak in front of the group and hold it in at the same time.
