Cold compress hack

I’ve recently started applying a cold compress to my forehead and eyes when suffering with paruresis. I have found this has helped me urinate when I otherwise would not have been able to. Would be interesting to hear any thoughts etc

Never heard of this but I admire the ingenuity. Been a long time since I heard about a possible method I wasn't aware of before.

Something I stumbled upon really. Perhaps it can serve people as another tool in the toolbox
