Therapy: I would recommend some cognitive behavioral therapy. See your primary MD or look for a qualified psychologist that works with CBT in your area! It CAN be overcome!

Below: Put in your ear buds, turn on music and this will distract you enough to usually alleviate the problem

Here are some...: Glad you talk about what & how you have experienced in urinating bashfully while someone or people around you; this is called a bashful bladder and you're not alone happening to few men and women. To improve such, an effort of mindful Kegel exercise + meditation focusing the thoughts of voiding to gradually "desensitize" your mind and physical connection over time could help.
