I have a problem…

There is Tesla technology that you can use to get rid of incontinence. I've heard people have wasted time at doctors when this technology is widely available. They are at alternate health care clinics and people are able to get relief @Unlonely1

try this organisation: https://www.continence.org.au/contact-us

From the website copy paste:

National Continence Helpline It operates 8am-8pm Monday to Friday excluding national public holidays. Phone: 1800 33 00 66

I don't know anything about your problem @Unlonely1, but just wanted to say that it's good to see you back, and back with your gorgeous screen pic. I think it's a favourite of mine. I hope things have not been going too badly for you.

Agree, @scruffypuffball. Loading up with information and wider opinions is very helpful, as is trying the simplest, most non-invasive methods first.

Hey @Unlonely1

I have had the same issue a while back. I also have CPTSD and DID. It was sort of investigated through an incontinence clinic which wasn't much fun but not invasive. I was on a blood pressure medication that might have caused it. It was quite a while ago but I think it was a medication designed to lower blood pressure by relaxing the veins and arteries but it relaxed a whole lot more.

I also still have trouble occasionally now. Now it seems to be more related to the dissociation. I am sometimes so disconnected from my physical body that I don't even notice that I need to go until it is too late. This happens particularly if I am under stress. I will go for hours and hours because something has to be dealt with and then the second I get out of the car at home, I'm flooding. To try to prevent this I try to go to the loo by the clock as well as every time I leave the house. ( I eat by the clock for the same reason. I never feel hungry.)

I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to post. It can be very embarrassing so good on you.

I don't know if anything I've said helps but I hope you feel less alone.

Thank you for sharing @Ocean-Blue . You post was very helpful for me too.

I'm glad you have been able to work out what helps you and have the honesty and strength to share it on the forums.

Thank you

It’s been long but we’re recognising sum names

Glad sum familiar names r still here😃

Hope evry1 is doing ok.

How r u @Historylover ?

Not a lot has changed for me, @Unlonely1. I hope you've been doing alright. Your absence suggests you've been doing reasonably, at the least. I hope so.

We’ve been working impossibly hard & constantly with our therapy team …

tired, frustrated, & completely bewildered now, by this latest challenge.
