About the CPD course
Paruresis (shy bladder syndrome) is an inability to urinate when we think other people may see or hear us. Living with this social anxiety disorder can be a stressful life-limiting burden. The associated shame and secrecy can lead to restricted life choices; social isolation; increased anxiety; depression; and even suicidal thoughts. NICE guidance recommends treatment with CBT techniques. Learn more about the condition and the internationally recognised methods of overcoming it to support the potentially 3 million plus sufferers in the UK to deal with; and recover from; this life-affecting anxiety disorder.
UK Paruresis Trust offers information and support to help individuals living with paruresis, also known as shy bladder syndrome. Paruresis is a social anxiety disorder affecting males and females of any age.
