Forced to wet myself, no station toilets

ast night I ended up having to wet myself ina platform. My train was delayed by 10 minutes and I missed my connecting train which runs every 20 minutes. With 20 minutes to go before my next train I was despairing and the station toilets were all locked as it was late at night. I didn’t dare leave the station as it was not a safe area and ended up just having to wet myself in the toilet doorway. Groups of men were walking past.
i am so humiliated and feel awful for the staff cleaning the platform but what else could I do.
i actually despise the way the rail companies treat passengers. If all the trains were on time i could have used the toilet on my connecting train.

I really don’t know what to say to this.

Do you mean you peed on the platform or that you wet yourself?

That must have been distressing for you. There is a lack of public toilets everywhere these days. YANBU they should be available at stations. Tickets cost enough!

If you were so bursting why didn’t you go to the loo on the first train?

Big difference between wetting yourself and weeing in a toilet doorway in public. How would the groups of men know you were weeing if you weren’t squatting etc

You mean you stood in a doorway and crouched down and had an actual wee or you wet yourself stood in a doorway realising it was closed ??
I have no words
