Shy bladder (paruresis) treated with hypnosis and hypnotherapy at the London Bridge Hypnotherapy Clinic
What is Shy Bladder (Paruresis)?Shy bladder is a relatively common condition where a person can be desperate to go to the toilet yet finds that they are unable to so if they are in a public place or if people may be able to hear or see them. Recent studies show that at least 7% of the public may suffer from this social anxiety disorder. Most sufferers find this condition starts in their teenage years although it can strike at any time. Other phrases used to describe this surprisingly common condition, a condition that can affect men and women, are 'shy bladder syndrome', 'pee-shyness', 'toilet phobia' and 'cock shy'. The full medical term is avoidant paruresis. This condition goes well beyond occasional shyness or embarrassment. Men using a urinal may find that they are unable to pee at all when other men are present - this may be because they're worried about others seeing their penis or perhaps a feeling of being defenceless if attacked. Shy bladder can also affect women. If using a crowded rest-room they may find that they are unable to pee. Most women are not aware that they have this condition as generally the focus in the past has been on problems experienced by males. Sufferers of this problem usually have similar anxieties when on a train, plane, bus or boat. Sometimes it even affects people when they are at home if there are others in the home who can hear them. This condition can cause huge problems with their social life and work. They tend to become very anxious when invited out socially as they first need to ensure that they are able to plan a route that will allow them to use a private toilet if required and in many cases this is not possible. Severe sufferers often are unwilling to travel far from their home.
How can this be sorted?
I create a safe and confidential place for you to work in. Free Association, a wonderfully simple and completely natural process, is used which allows you to slowly bring to the surface your bottled up emotions. Your mind wants to bring up these emotions and will do so easily and gently when given a safe environment to do so. There are no regression techniques used. Hypnoanalysis can totally and permanently resolve the cause of the unconscious anxieties causing your shy bladder allowing you to live a relaxed and happy life.
