what is “Shy Bladder” drug testing

The term "shy bladder" refers to a situation when the employee does not provide a sufficient amount of urine (45 mL) for a DOT-required drug test. The collector explains to the employee the process for a shy bladder collection and urges the employee to drink up to 40 ounces of fluids, distributed reasonably through a period of up to three hours, or until the individual has provided a sufficient urine specimen, whichever occurs first. It is not a refusal to test if the employee declines to drink.

A person with paruresis finds it difficult or impossible to urinate (wee) when other people are around. The condition is also known as avoidant paruresis, shy bladder syndrome', psychogenic urinary retention' and pee-phobia.
