Actually it's very likely that it could be a symptom of stress so it could gone the day you have a job. And even if not who cares... The ones who do care about your health problems just want to focus away from their own issues.

If somebody really loves you nothing should matter. It's nice to see real love for once. I have overactive bladder.

What is bedwetting? Bedwetting is also called sleep enuresis. It is a parasomnia. A parasomnia involves undesired events that come along with sleep. Bedwetting occurs when a person urinates by accident in his or her sleep. It results from a failure to wake up from sleep when the bladder is full. It may also result from a failure to prevent a bladder contraction. These are skills that you acquire as you grow and develop. There is a wide range in the age at which these skills are gained. Urinating is a reflex for infants when they are asleep and awake. This occurs up to about 18 months of age. From 18 months to about three years of age, a child begins learning to delay urination when the bladder is full. First the child learns to do this while awake. At a later age, he learns to do this while asleep. The developmental maturity of the child will help determine the age at which this skill is gained. Most children should be able to control their bladders during sleep by the time they are about five years of age. Thus, bedwetting is not considered a sleep disorder unless it occurs at least twice a week in a person at least five years of age. Bedwetting can be primary or secondary. A child with primary bedwetting has never regularly stayed dry during sleep for six straight months. A child or adult with secondary bedwetting developed the ability to stay dry at night and has done so for at least 6 straight months. Then he or she began bedwetting again at least twice a week for at least three months. Generally secondary bedwetting is simply another parasomnia expressing. They may have had any one of several symptoms, such as: Bruxism, sleep walking, restless leg syndrome etc. Their sleep disorder is now expressing in a different manner. This is the reason parents are told “Don’t worry, they’ll outgrow it” They haven’t outgrown the parasomnia, it is still there only expressing in a different manner. The enuretic must be taught to sleep better or more normally. Proper guided training can achieve this, however it may take as long as 4-6 months by committed coaches following a prescribed program to correct the architecture of sleep.

i’m a 23 year old woman. i am successful in my career and people think im very beautiful. nobody knows i suffer with this. it started when i was 21. just out of nowhere. and it never left me. at times it would be gone for 1-3 months at a time and i was so happy thinking i was cured. right now is extremely bad. it happens every night. i bought more bedsheets, those pee pad things for dogs to put under my sheet so the mattress doesn’t get wet and i’ve bought some incontinence underwear for women. i couldn’t put one on yet. i just couldn’t look at myself in the mirror. It is ruining my life. what man would ever tolerate a wife that may be great in every other aspect but has this issue. nobody. I am desperate. it makes me want to die. I just want to be normal.

I´m 34 male and can say the same about my career. It started at about 22/23 for me and since then it´s on and off, sometimes it´s all good for weeks and then it just starts again. It was hard to accept it at the beginning but many people are really understanding and won´t judge you. I wouldn´t mind if my partner leaks, there are many ways to deal with that. Don´t be afraid of letting people you like know about your health problems, sometimes i gets better only because you have someone you can talk about it with. If it doesn´t get better for whatever reason, just accept it, you will find someone who doesn´t care or maybe has the same problem or he even likes it (Yes, there are guys who would love that just ask Google 😇) and it will soon be not that big of a deal. Everybody leaks at some point in life. I found love and honest good friends because of my incontinence as soon as I was confident about it. It´s really not the end of the world. If it´s only at nighttime barely anyone will ever notice except from your closest friends and family and these are the people you should always be able to talk about anything without getting judged, they should love you for different things 🙂

I have Interstitial Cystitis. It wouldn't matter to me if a woman suffers from nocturnal enuresis and wears a diaper to bed.
