Re: Bedwetting and great new OCD autobiography--

[Guest guest]

,

I haven't been on in several months and am trying to catch up with 1000

messages! I wanted to jump in if you are still around and mention

that my non-OCD son wet the bed until age 12 as well. Desmopressin did

nothing for him, but a combo of that and a muscle relaxer (can't

remember the name, but will find it if you want to try it) stopped the

bed wetting one the first night. It was amazing. The crazy thing was

that it knocked him out cold, so I have no idea how it worked. We kept

him on it every night for 6 mos. or so and then slowly weaned him off.

He is almost 14 and never had another wet night. Let me know if you

have any questions.

Hi Dina et al.- Yes I am still here. I'd love to know what medication and the

thinking behind it. Just for fun, my son is now on a tea drinking obsession

(some link to Harry Potter and England?!?!?) and wants tea before bed! THIS IS

NOT HELPFUL - but kind of funny ....

PS for the readers out there just read " 40 Scrubs " a free download for Nook from

and Noble. A bit unpolished, I think it is self published, but with a

background theme of OCD....
