great but many docs dont know or understdan about paruresis copy down information from this web site regarding paruesis and either take it with you or invite him/her to read it before your appointment. anti anxiety drugs don't seem to have an effect for many people. what would help is a CBT session with a psychologist in your area but you may have to wait a while, and even then he/she might not know too much about paruresis. if really need be I can help point to papers in the literture for the doc to read; available through Medline or other medical search engines alex
