Hi Loz What a happy ending :-) You now see what a difference it makes to take away two anxieties: 1. the anxiety caused by the fear of how you would manage because you would not be able to pee; this anxiety was removed by the presence of a catheter 2. the anxiety caused by the need to have a pee; this was removed by your not needing one, so to your surprise, the body drained off of it own accord. Perhaps you can use this approach to gradually desensitise yourself to portaloos, trains and planes. I'll be in touch by email next week. cheers Andrew
