thanks for your honesty mandy. sounds like a real difficult situation. my shy bowel didn't kick in till i was seventeen so i didn't experience the same thing as you. what i do know, is if one person experiences something, then you can be sure other people have experienced the same - its just whether they're up for being as honest as you.

you said you've started having accidents since you started working at your aunt's shop before school. is that because you now don't have a chance to poop before you go off to school?

whatever the reason, is there any way you could talk to your aunt about it? tell her exactly what you've told us? i bet she'd be understanding about it, don't you?

hope this helps,
let us know how you get on,
