Liberated Waters: From Paruresis & shame to freedom & acceptance

This story is about how the pieces of my life fell into place in a way that left me controlled by Paruresis (Shy Bladder), a social anxiety disorder that took from me the simple freedom to pee outside my home.

But more importantly, that after 15 years of struggle, I was able to overcome it, by first overcoming myself.

I wrote this in the hopes of providing insight. That you may see parallels to your own situation, and to create a sense of hope that you have the ability to create freedom for yourself, as well.
