The docs have done all their tests, there is no infection. He is not waking up in the night to wee so not overactive bladder. He just keeps going to the loo!! I have followed him & there always seems to be wee, I have made him stay there to ensure he has fully empty - still happening. I am currently stopping him going, asking him to wait longer, to see what happens, and he does forget a bit, but is soon jumping & clinging on to his bits desperate (he says) . He is SEN, and is currently worrying about things like the smoke alarms and floods etc. He doesn't like school much, but goes happily. He says he goes this much in school, but need to confirm this with teacher. Home is happy & calm no stresses or dramas. SO I JUST DONT KNOW WHY!!!! HELP ME!!

I only ask because DS1 (12) does this when he is stressed. Like nervous wee if you like. He says there's no pain or blood in his wee etc.

His doesn't hurt either, not diabetic etc.. I wonder if his current worries about natural disasters are causing it, I shall try to reassure him more, but he doesnt always take it in.I wondered if it was more of a mental health issue iyswim

DS1 is a worrier, he hates high school and we are putting it down to that. I think it's habit and worry. Sad

My dd is like this if she's anxious or over excited about something. She's been like it for years. I try and ignore it. if I make a fuss about it, she seems to get more anxious and go more. She's also one of those kids that as soon as we arrive somewhere new the first thing she has to do is check out the toilets.
