Anxiety and Stress Relief Clinic :: Bashful Bladder

One of the most painful forms of Social Anxiety is what is referred to as Shy Bladder.

This is when you find it difficult or impossible to urinate in the presence of others either in your own home or in public washrooms.

You fear someone will hear or see you. The pressure of knowing someone is there, listening or waiting to use the washroom makes the external sphincter muscles squeeze shut so you can’t release urine.
