Why do all my trips have one weird thing in common ? LSD & Shrooms

So I created this post because my trips have one weird thing in common and I am trying to understand what the root of that is. Hopefully one of you experienced users can help me get a sense of that.
I had a few Shroom trips ( about 5 or 6) with "medium" dosage and three LSD trips with 100-150yg.
On my first LSD trip I was at a festival in a Forest, I was lying on the ground at the chill floor with my friends. The trip was amazing but at some point one thing took the overhand of my trip. I didnt feel my genital area, I didnt know if I let lose of my muscles or tighten them. Try to imagine everything down ur belly and up your legs feels numb, like when you sit in an airplane and your cheeks feel numb from all the sitting, just that my entiry genital area felt like that for hours.
So what if I got an erection ? or peed without knowing ? or worse ... didnt know I had to take Nr2?
So what was my reaction ? every minute I took a break from looking at the funny moving clouds, lifted my head and checked if everything was normal down there, nothing wet, nothing hard pointing up, no weird smell, noone staring at me .... back to looking at funny clouds for a minute. That went on for the rest of the trip, even when I walked around I felt the urge to check every few seconds. I think I pressed my cheeks together for an entire hour because I did not dare to let lose. But it felt the same either way, even when I was on the toilet I didnt feel a change in my muscles. Really weird experience....
And this is what I had in all my trips that involved other people. ( the numbness changed from trip to trip, sometimes just a light numbness, sometimes a strong numbness.
Am I maybe scared to be laughed at or stared at ?
What is that thing with the numbness in my genital area ?
I also noticed that I am somewhat paranoid when going through citys etc. I have the feeling that people have figured out I am tripping or that I am looking weird or behaving different and people stare at me for that.
My good friend and trip buddy doesnt care at all, he could walk through citys and just ignore all the stares and weird / funny people. He would just laugh at how weird these moments were, but I get a bit anxious every time.
And no, none of these trips were "bad trips", every trip is an experience that I think is important to have. They form me and tell me story's about myself, I try to listen to every moment, even the really bad ones filled with anxiety.

Thinking you might have pissed yourself is relatively common on psychedelics.

I'm going to assume you're young-ish. When I was young, I consumed psychedelics as if they were party drugs. I was frequently anxious and struggled with paying attention to things. I learned I really didn't like hanging out with others while on psychedelics, I really preferred being alone when on them.
I'd be tempted to explore lower doses in public. It's not a contest to see who can take the most, it's an experience and a highly personal one. Try maybe 25-75 mcg of LSD and see if it is easier to handle. There's no shame in doing what's right for you.

I only take LSD or shrooms, sometimes I smoke weed. I dont take them alot, every few months in the summer I would say, I dont have these drugs so I only take them when friends want to trip with me.
Also having a trip like experience is the only reason for me to drugs at all, thats why I stay away from most of the other drugs. Its like a Dream with adventure, anxiety, moving things and a blown mind.
But I will take that advice and take less or do you maybe know of a drug that is similar but doesn't get affected by people so much, maybe a combination with LSD that I could try ?

Thinking you've pissed yourself is pretty common. You should get used to it, understand that the feelings you are having in that area of the body are normal and experienced by many, just try to ignore them...I know it feels like you have less control over your bodily functions but I promise you won't actually piss/shit yourself.(at reasonable doses)
Though sometimes diarrhea can occur during a trip, it won't generally be without warning, and will probably happen shortly after the come up or not at all. You can control this by eating light the day before dosing...for peace of mind you could take some loperamide before your dose.

Everyone's different....
If you haven't had anything embarrassing happen yet, Then just try to understand it isn't a problem to worry about.
I never had anything but body euforea, not wanting to move on shrooms, and indigestion. But people say they feel like they have to shit.
I've never heard of numbness.
Don't let it bother you.
-------------------- Just take um like you get um. Those ephemeral spasms of infinity, in suspended animation, born across a boundless ether of existential misery aloft a revelry (of awe) for the abhorrently sublime.

Thanks for the answers, since none of my friends had that numbness I thought it was something rare. But maybe no one dared to talk about the feelings they had in their genital area.
I will experiment with micro dosage and 100yq+ dosage and try to no worry about that feeling. Maybe that will do the trick after a few trips.

holy. fucking. shit. I thought I was the only one. LSD and shrooms both make me no longer feel my genitals too. For me personally I think it has something to do with my gender identity stuff (im nonbinary) and dysmorphia but im not trying to project that on you. I get the exact same anxiety too, specifically pissing myself. On DMT I straight up feel myself peeing myself even thou im not. Pretty much everytime ive done DMT i feel the pee, just got used to it lol

Sometimes the early childhood memories which are quite vague resurface in a distorted way, related to how parents and caregivers treated the baby and toddler with respect to diaper changes and toilet training.
After hormones begin to surge (i.e. sexual awakening) the same area of the body inherits early childhood embarrassment ('who's looking?', 'is it poking up?'), and concern ('did I wet myself or get dirty?'). and also the numb bum numb groin childhood transcendence, as an early attempt to be free of the whole problem resurfaces as well.
There it is, try to be relaxed about it, give it time, it will go away, and take some time to observe how adults project shame on children without intending to derange them, but we are clumsy in our ways, and often outcomes happen that are way different than we meant, as a result of a word or action.

That relates so much and instantly touches somewhere deep. My mom was... troubled. Loved me a lot but lets just say im not the first schizophrenic in my family.
