So, prior to Crohn's I would always buy toilet paper which was easy on the environment, the scratchy recycled kind. Unfortunately, what is good for for the environment is not necessarily good for your butt. As my bathroom trips increased, so did my need for better paper. I am now disregarding the environment and purchasing the softest fluffiest TP money can buy. I'm now trying to wean myself back to work and I have to say, after the 5th trip to the work can in 3 hours I'm starting to really miss my fluffy TP. I'm trying to decide, I either take over the TP stocking responsibility and supply the entire office with fluffy TP on my own dime so it is there when I need it. Or I carry my own TP to the bathroom every time I go which means parading it down the hall and past reception. It is already pretty embarrassing going every 30-45 minutes, the last thing I want to do is draw more attention to myself. Or, I could keep a roll(s) in my office and unwind some around my hand and put into my pocket for the trip to the bathroom. Maybe it is just time to stop babying my bum and let it toughen up. :)
 
I always carry my own TP with me. I can't stand the cheap stuff they have in restaurants, hotels, offices...well, everywhere but my house!! And even if I forget or run out (I keep a roll in the car) I always have a small pack of kleenex in my purse which work in a pinch too.
 
Oh, and on a side note, if you ever need to do a prep while staying in a hotel room, bring your own paper!!!! Several hours and one scratchy roll in I sent my husband on an emergency run to the grocery store!
 
I'm going to start carrying toilet paper with me! I never thought about that and everywhere skimps on toilet paper. Especially movie theaters!
 
Ah! A packet of kleenex in the purse is a great idea. I carry a roll in every car too (lots of woods and long distances between places here).
 
If you find that any tp is too rough or you are overwiping , get some Calmoseptine cream most drug stores have it. I am never with out it!
 
Way back when I used my anus, calmosptine was my best friend!! Now that I have Oscar, I don't have the problem...lol I just find that the cheap toilet paper gets stuck to him and that's just gross....lol
