It's interesting that the same urologist would know that people can have conditions that hinder them from urinating. He'd also understand some have conditions that would make the urge more frequent and he'd understand conditions that don't allow full emptying, etc. He'd understand stage fright and fear of heights but not this…I'd find another doctor for sure. The fact that he doesn't get it at all, tells me something else. He doesn't have it. It's like stuttering or a hundred other things that if you don't have it you can't even imagine it. And the fact that you can't even imagine it, tells me its a real condition. If you're great at something you usually don't have anxiety about it, when you're not you do. And anxiety and easily build. I've seen nothing to dissuade me from believing it's partly physical (at least at some point) and partially social.
