Hi Everyone,
This is my first time posting here, though I have browsed the forums on and off for a number of years now. I'm 30 yr old Male and I've had severe anxiety for many a year now and even had to drop out of grad school a few years back because of it. Anxiety has mostly been health related though for a few years it's been pretty generalised with often symptoms of OCD mixed in for good measure. At the moment it's the frequent urination that is making me mad. I've had episodes of frequent urination on and off throughout my life, though these past few weeks have been awful. My main fear is the symptom itself. Afraid I'm loosing too much water, or will find myself in a situation unable to access restroom etc.. I went to Dr 2 weeks back and the blood work was all clear (though that's the only test they did) and they agreed it was probably anxiety related. For the past 24 hours or so..I'm been needing to "go" on the hour or even less (sometimes within minutes of previously having gone) and it's pretty terrifying. Is the severity of this symptom something that others have experienced?
