    Frequent urination...anyone else?

    Hey guys

    I know this is a common symptom of anxiety. But does anyone else go through it? My mind seems to be totally focussed on my bladder.

    I know I shouldn't be looking for reassurance but I'm right in the middle of anxiety right now.

    Thanks so much

    Really worried that no-one else has this. I thought it was a common symptom :(

    It's a rather common anxiety symptom.

    Total common symptom.
    Happens to me whenever I'm anxious.

    Extremely common anxiety symptom, happens to me from time to time (Or if I drink too much tea)

    You'll be just fine!

    Any sort of removal of bodily fluids (peeing, pooping, vomiting, crying (lol)) is just par for the course with anxiety. I know one girl who constantly passes gas when having a panic attack - our bodies react in strange ways to stress. As long as your urine isn't brown/discoloured, doesn't have a weird odour, and it doesn't hurt to pee, you're fine - just nervous.

    I get it all the time! Every 5 mins with literally a full bladder and then I get anxiety over it thinking something is wrong... spiral!

    Thanks so much guys. It really helps to know that I'm not going crazy and that this is normal when anxious. It makes sense because when I'm really busy with something I totally forget about it.

    Thanks again all. It almost feels like when I'm tense then my muscles down there tense and that makes me want to go. Trying to do some meditation to relax but I'm only in the early stages of learning it and it's hard.

    I had this problem last year. I kept going when I really didn't need to and by doing that I trained my bladder to think it needed to empty constantly! Try holding it in for a while and only go when you really need to.
