frequent urination-anxiety anyone?

Hello Everyone,

This is my first post here.

I'm a 47 year old guy w/ Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

For over a year,I have been seeing a (highly rated) Urologist because I have a problem in which I need to urinate probably over 20 times per day. And I should add that I'm not one drinking water all day from a bottle like many I know.

I have had many diagnostic tests and 2 surgical procedures done with still no improvement. I am going for a second opinion w/ another doc in a month.

I know, after reading much, much information out there(and as told by the doctor) that anxiety plays a major role in this problem.

I could explain further, but don't want to turn this into a very long post.

Question: Is there anyone else out there who has/is going through the same problem? What helped? & Did the problem eventually go away(how long?) ?


Thank you!

Mike

Yes, I relate! Also, my meds cause dry mouth so I always have a beverage with me. I've just accepted numerous trips to the restroom. It is worse when my anxiety is high. I recommend talking to your doctor or therapist to see what can be done. Take care.
