I feel paranoid about urinating myself?

Question

I'm 19 and at the moment living with a terrible problem

I currently have Paruresis (shy bladder) when trying to have a wee in a public toilet or when ever i can hear anyone i just cant seem to go. This i have been dealing with for a lot of my life, which brings me onto my real problem, now i have a paranoia/anxiety when ever in a social situation or even walking down the street that i may urinate my self, i have never done so but can't stop thinking "have i or am i going to"

Ive been drinking pretty heavily over the last 2 years with quite a large intake of recreational drugs, but now i'm finding that i only don't have this paranoia/anxiety when i have been drinking, which lately i have been doing quite a lot due to my problem which is making everything worse for me in life anyway.

Can anyone please help

or atleast give me some advice.

Only serious answers please.

Answer 1

quit drinking, it does not sound like your having fun any more.

Answer 2

This not funny! I have been married 23 years and still have this problem. You need to see a urologists, and probably a mental health adviser. They can prescribe medication for you phobia. I just couldn't bring myself to tell anyone. When I finally did, I discussed it, and figured out why I had the problem. Good Luck

Answer 3

Please, please, please give up alcohol and seek counseling. If you feel that you might wet yourself when out, you might try an adult protective device (diaper or pad).

I pray you have the strength to make better choices for your good health.

Answer 4

stop drinking water
