Then the panic attack comes to mind when maynard talks about being strapped to the bed, feet cold, shitting the bed. A person in a panic attack would probably need to be restrained, and the central nervous system starts "shut off" making the person lose bowel control.
I don't think so - people who experience panic attacks and anxiety are neurotic, not psychotic; their perception is not affected so they don't have to be restrained. They are also quite capable of controlling their bowel movements (at least, I've certainly never shat myself while having a panic attack).
