Mike-- Welcome to the fight; glad to see you're fighting back. Psychologists are OK...some of them. I disagree with yours when they suggest that there is no cure because there is no problem: If we can't pee when we need to pee, then we've got a problem. I agree with the notion that, if you can't pee at a urinal but you can in a stall, then go ahead and use the stall. The problem is, as our sister paruretics can attest, a stall isn't the solution for most of us. But in my experience (and this is my prediction), you'll achieve more progress in a weekend Workshop than you will in a year's worth of office visits (and at far less expense). So in the interests of your time, money, and peace-of-mind, keep up with your psychologist visits for now but get yourself to the very next Beginner's Workshop. Good Luck --Andy
