My worst nightmare..

I'm now.... SHARING a bathroom. My living situation has changed and I'm in horror.

Please share any tips, tricks, suggestions, words of wisdom, sympathy, or empathy on how to make this awful issue easier for those I share the bathroom with.

Thank you!

I'm not totally sure what horror you might be referring to, but if it includes noises or smelly things, then I would suggest a radio and air freshner. The only other thing would be to address your issue with frankness and openess. We all have bodily functions that can't be avoided and just letting your roomates know you have issues that might need to be addressed with modesty then hopefully you can talk to them without having to go into to much information.

Try two DS'ers in a house with only ONE working bathroom. We do have a second one but due to mold/rotten wood, it's right now down to the studs and joists and nothing is functional.

We've been doing this for a year now....ozium works wonders.

Also, humans cause odors in the bathroom...even those whose anatomy has not been altered.

Monitor your carbs VERY closely and anything else that causes you gas.

Probiotics !

( and I suspect copious quantities of fresh vegetables also help ..just by diluting things with fiber )

Strong ( refrigerated ) probiotics and fresh food work incredibly well ... I have never had a single issue ...and I share very close quarters ( like sailboat cabins and coast to coast plane rides ! ) with virtual strangers all the time. Noone has ever remarked on any odors Thank God .

The probiotic bacteria also really help wih your skin's tone, elasticity and regeneration...

A candle of an oil lamp that only needs to be lit for a short time. Actually, just a match can really help!

Thanks everyone!

Really? Carbs make a differnce, eh? I honestly did not know that.

And probiotics? I need to study up!

I've tried Devrom and it seems to GIVE me gas. *shrug*

Anyway, I'm taking notes! Thank you!
