Being a Bedwetter

I'm going to be very vulnerable right now; I'm a bedwetter. When it first started, I thought it was due to my disability, but I've noticed that it's inconsistent with certain patterns. I rarely pee the bed, but lately, it has been really bad and I never thought to link it to stress. I also have mild sleep apnea which may not be so mild anymore. According to the American Sleep Apnea Association, a research study concluded that around 82% of the people who do have sleep apnea also experience nighttime urination. Additionally, “stress or anxiety can also cause the problem, which might last long after the stress has gone.”

I'm thinking my recent increase in bedwetting could be the amount of stress I am under. So much so that I am literally not waking up to use the restroom. I have to dehydrate myself and be grateful that I'm visibly disabled so there's some pity for me and my body. I know how stressed out I am, but I never thought it'd be linked to adult nocturnal urination. I haven't done extensive research on the links between bedwetting, stress, and sleep apnea, but I wasn't surprised at what I found. The only thing that surprised me is the long lasting effects of stress. 

I have also noticed that my bedwetting isn't consistent; it occurs in phases. For example, the last time this occurred was when I was kicked out of my home for sex work. That was in 2020, almost 4 years ago! I don't even drink that much alcohol anymore so it's also not due to my now-minimal alcohol consumption. Nocturnal urination has caused me to avoid sleepovers; I don't like cuddling either, but that's a different, aromantic side of me. I'm not embarrassed, but I don't want to sleep over at someone's house to piss on their bed(s)! I have special, waterproof sheets for that. This flare-up most likely started with not peeing after masturbation. It's true when they say that complete sexual abstinence is the safest sex; I can't even fuck myself safely.
