In my book if you don’t remember it’s an accidental sleep wetting. Twice in a week! Congratulations!!

As a simple engineer I have one model for nights and if Goodnites are diapers a second for days as deemed necessary.

In my case your assumption is correct. Outside of alcohol induced, for years I only wet the bed when I wanted to. That is when diapered at home with extra fluid before bed. That changed, in time I began to have occasional unplanned accidents at home with a game changing “disaster” on a business trip. No regrets!

For some reason I can’t find “rustle plastic pants” on REARZ. Any chance you could post a link?

Curious, when responsible for your own laundry did you have to wash your sheets every time you wet? Ask because once I got a place of my own I often wet multiple times before cleaning up. Strange as it sounds, I enjoyed (still do) sleeping in pee stained sheets.

No doubt about it - she knows.

And the Rezūm treatment helped with no significant side effects?

You’re not the only one. Also a bedwetter, after multiple daytime incidents I began wearing a Goodnite all day every day a little over a year ago. I try not to use it, but occasionally can’t get to the bathroom in time. As for men’s room, with normal underwear atop my Goodnite I lower both together at a urinal. Far as I know no one has noticed, nothing I worry about.

As a married sleep wearer (bed wetter) I hate leaks. Sleeping on my side/front rear padding is never used. I’d be fine with less. But my complaint on modern disposables is poor wicking and lack of side padding. Functionally cloth and plastic pants work much better for me. However, from the wife’s perspective, they have a downside.

When I wake wet with no memory I’m at peace with the world. My day is good. Nothing bothers me. Conversely, when dry I’m depressed and irritable.

Remember my concern when I noticed our Sears catalog tended to automatically open to the incontinence section because I had spent so much time perusing those pages.

Afraid I don’t have a magic formula. My basic approach was to over and over hydrate before bed and then nonchalantly wet as needed during the night till wetting became a nothing not worth remembering. If you’re ok with alcohol you might try downing a couple beers before going to bed. Beer will rapidly fill your bladder while promoting deep sleep which greatly increases the odds of success.

With some effort I’ve become a regular bed wetter. No regrets, couldn’t be happier.

Rather than diapers, for me it was loss of a rubber sheet which in my mind sanctioned bedwetting. Don’t recall if mom called me into my room or we just happened to cross paths there. Whatever, having been dry for some length of time mom indicated she was going to remove the rubber sheet. She also said something to the effect that any wetting without the sheet will ruin the mattress, it best not happen. It wasn’t long before I missed the shame and sensations of bedwetting. Lying in bed I’d release a small amount into my pajamas but was afraid to out and out wet without a rubber sheet. In time I resorted to home alone secret bed wetting atop an old plastic table cloth. It was enjoyable but stressful in that I never knew for sure how much alone time I had to clean up. It would have been so easy. When my bedwetting began tapering off I should have supplemented accidents with purposeful wetting. The rubber sheet would have remained in place and with that “permission” to occasionally put it to use.

As a bed wetter I now wear a double lined plastic pant over my disposable. So clad I sleep in any position pointing any direction without worry of leaks. It’s like the old days (nights) in cloth diapers, totally secure.

Assume you have an income tax, what is/are the rate(s)?

Every situation is different. Like many bed-wetters back in the day I was punished and shamed. Granted, fearing mom’s anger I always wished I was dry in the morning. Yet bedwetting in itself didn’t bother me in the least. Part of me actually enjoyed it to the point of sometimes wetting on purpose. I was not very shrewd. There was the night mom discovered I was wet only minutes after going to bed. There was the morning she sensed a fresh wetting. There were mornings without school or other reason to get up that I laid in it till virtually yanked out of bed. She knew. Perhaps mom's scolding and spankings were justified? If not what?

So what do you think, was the counselor correct, were you subconsciously wetting for attention? Waking wet in my early years I sometimes pretended all was fine hoping mom wouldn’t find out. Wasn’t seeking her attention, I feared it. And later as a teenager I went to great lengths to hide my now purposeful bedwetting from mom (still not seeking attention). No, for me bedwetting and diapers are and always have been magically exciting. They define me. It’s who I am. I’m a diapered bed-wetter and proud of it. And yet, outside my wife everyone thinks I’m a normal guy living a normal middle class life. Life is strange.

Wetting the bed bothered me to the extent it might result in a tongue lashing or spanking. Despite that, as far back as I can remember, part of me enjoyed bedwetting even doing it on purpose. Fairly sure mom knew. Growing up my friends wanted to be older so they could stay up late, drive a car, etc. Not me, I dreamt of the day I’d have a place of my own to wet my pants and bed at will without repercussions.

Far as I know besides myself only a distant cousin was a bed wetter. And I only knew about him via an overheard conversation. My family, especially mother, was prudish and proper. If there was a history of bedwetting I doubt I would have been told. Except for me our family was perfect. I wet the bed.

In the “Q&A” session of a physical I (age 19) sheepishly asked if my recent bed wetting was a sign of a serious problem. Thought the doctor would be shocked. To the contrary, he assured me adult bed wetting was not unusual offering suggestions for coping. And no, he didn’t suggest diapers. I can’t equate “not unusual” to a percent. But even 2% is significant. My high school graduating class was slightly over 200. Wonder who the other 3 were. Were they diapered? Did they enjoy it?

Sounds good to me! Like many kids that wet the bed in the 50’s I was punished and humiliated for it. Strangely, or perhaps not, I now crave the same when it happens.

If not mistaken you’re the one that purposely peed the bed so mom wouldn’t remove the rubber sheet … my hero. Wish I’d been so smart. And yes, the frequency of my sleep wetting has increased as I’ve grown older. It’s to the point dry nights are few and far between. I’m not complaining.
