[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 133040, member: 3444"] FWIW, my easy child/difficult child 3 developed secondary eneurisis after a stressful time in our family (brother was very, very ill for many months). After trying the DDAVP with no success, and limited liquids at bedtime, having her go pee before bed, etc., I asked our psychiatrist about it. His take was that she had anxiety and was so exhausted from holding in the tension and worry that she was sleeping too deeply to be aroused from sleep by a full bladder. We put her on a very low dose (5mg) of Lexapro, and within a week, she was dry! In our case, I firmly believe the anxiety factor, because this is also the same kid who was terrified of palm trees as a toddler ;) As for the bowel issues, if this is something new that's developed, I would be very concerned about whether this is due to some kind of psychological trauma or abuse. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
