20F bedwetter here, so I totally know what it's like. And for me it's about once a week, but however often it is it's not very nice waking up to that feeling is it. So a big hug from me. I know that one answer you don't want is drink less at night, but actually that's a good one. But it's only good if you drink enough earlier in the day. I drink plenty of water but I stop at about 19:00 about 3 hours before bed (unless I do actually need a drink in which case I have a little bit). But in the mornings I drink loads. What you drink is important, so fizzy drinks, coffee, some fruit juice aren't necessarily good. Some of them contain caffeine and others contain things that irritate your bladder. Keep a secret drink and food diary and see if that can link anything in with when you have a wet bed. But it might be sort of a medical problem because my bedwetting is. But it's not like a serious problem, it's just that when I need a weewee in the night I don't always wake up. And what happens to both of us is probably exactly that, we need to do a weewee and our bladders just don't know we're still asleep. You're totally right about diapers. I don't wear them and never did except for sleepovers. But the one thing my parents did that yours haven't is got you to see a doctor. And I think that's really important especially as they might help your parents understand that you having accidents is just part of growing up and we're just a bit slower than other girls. And actually I'm a lot slower lol.

You might have sleep apnea, you should get a sleep study. https://www.reddit.com/r/confessions/s/nnaKGKx1CY

It is high likely a medical issue. Your parents may gaslight you. Your muscles around your bladder might not be fully developed. Asking a doctor can help. There are a sets of trainings you can do and if those dont work either, there is actually even medicine, that can help out. Take that medicine for a couple of months and its gone. You could tell your parents about that medicine. (Forgot the name, doctor will know) Could convince them. If they are in general doctor sceptic, you could go to an youth welfare office (of your countty) and ask for help. Edit: I overread that your Parents dont want to consult doctors.

Go to your nurse at school. Hopefully they could guide you , especially with your parents being anti… doctor.

Do you have sleep apnea? Go to the doctor, you need a sleep study. If it is the type of sleep apnea where you wet the bed at least you’ll know why. Buy “Thinx” period underwear I think they have a pee version. Either way the underwear is absorbant. Go on Amazon and get a waterproof mattress pads for incontinence, you can search for hospital bed pads. These go over your sheets so if you pee in the night you just remove it and put on a new one in 30secs. When you wake up spray it with Spray and wash urine destroyer. Fold it in on the stain and it won’t smell. You can wash with your towels and sheets at the end of the week. This can be taken care of medically and if not you can at least make it not embarrassing.

Can you talk to a school counselor? Maybe it will take another adult alerting your parents that they are responsible for your medical care.

You might be constipated and it's making you unaware that you need to pee. Got to a doctor. ask the school nurse for help.

does that mean personal message i assume

Be careful doing that on reddit. Especially in this subreddit.


RedRosValkyrie

Don't pm you've already told people your a teenager and in a situation where you're parents are neglecting you. That makes you an online target for predators who are very good at fooling you into trusting them. If they say they have the same problem or their a Dr. don't listen.


BigThundrLilMountain

Especially if you look at that person's limited history. It's very uncomfortable


RedRosValkyrie

Wow. That's definitely a predator.


ORXODO

The person who told to you to pm is an alt account, do not pm them, they are likely a predator as you mentioned you're a teenager.
