@fritzo - best thing to do is just get out there and get that first one out of the way. Pick a nearby place, and if they have a single-occupancy family/unisex bathroom, all the better. Privacy will make that first public emptying easier.

One word of advice - being out in public, I was convinced the first several times my bladder emptied that I must’ve leaked through to my trousers…but I never did. I was absolutely sure I had, and scooted off to the restroom as quickly and discreetly as possible to find that, yes, while my groin was definitely…moist, the brief-and-pad combo easily handled the amount I voided.

I think simply being in public played on my anxiety about the whole thing.

Good luck!
