Did she do ketamine? Ketamine is well known to cause that. If not that it’s either overactive bladder, kidney/hormone problems, UTI, kidney stones etc

I have a tiny bladder and go at least once an hour minimum. Been checked. It’s just me having a tiny bladder 🤷🏼‍♀️. It’s normal for some people. Like someone else said. Genetics 🤷🏼‍♀️

Tbh it’s a case by case basis. It could be something wrong or it’s just how their body works. Trust she probably is also annoyed by it.

You just don’t drink enough water

I mean, I had to bee 9 times in an hour once, still didn’t occurs to me to go to the doctor. I only went bc of my back pain, I had an incredibly rare and deadly tumor in my spine. So maybe she should go to the doctor.

Girl should get checked for diabetes that’s a very common sign of high blood sugar 😬

That sounds like a sign of a bladder infection that could turn into a kidney infection. I know from personal experience how dangerous they can be as I was almost flown to the Children’s Hospital at 17 because I almost waited until it was too late. I genuinely hope they get the Care they need because that can be deadly

as a person with this problem, it is actually really annoying, i hate having to inconvenience people, and it’s really irritating having to wander to the bathroom every <30 minutes. I complain sometimes too. now if she is just complaining and not acknowledging it as a problem, that’s different. my friends are super aware of the problem and understand, we joke about it all the time

HO HOW DO YOU THINK WE FEEL. that shit is an inconvenience to us for our whole lives. it’s only one to you when YOU make the active decision to come around us.

But what if I’m diabolically sizzled with my absolutes boys?

As someone who has this same problem I wouldn’t say anything to your friend because I get extremely self conscious of people recognizing my potty breaks

Sorry I forgot the part 2 bc someone was talking. We are on a trip and have to keep stopping for her/she always is complaining about having to pee but got mad when we said it’s not normal

If it was just having to pee, fine, but she complains about it

OP 13w

Ohh okay that makes a lot more sense! Yea in that case it would prolly be annoying to have to stop frequently and I hope she sees a doctor

Se I would say it’s just her…if it didn’t just start like a month ago and she thinks it’s just a quirk that makes her seem “cute” and “like a baby”

Only thing that bothers me is she’ll complain about needing to pee and then not go to the doctor bc it’s a “cute quirk”. She hasn’t always been like this. If it’s so cute then don’t complain to me

I have because of ADHD which causes hypersenstivuty to bodily sensations. We can feel if there’s just a little pee in the bladder we feel we need to empty. I’m retraining my bladder my holding it 10 extra minutes each time

Also just to add it’s not cute or quirky. For people like us it’s FRUSTRATING especially in college classes when it looks like we can’t pay attention. It’s dumb. So not something she should think is cute

It started a month ago for her and she refuses to get checked bc it’s a “cute quirk”. Also is annoying when one of us needs to shower but she pounds on the door bc she needs to pee every 30 min

Idk why she says it’s a “cute quirk”

Totally frustrating. I could see how that would tick me off too if she’s not really in need of peeing like other people

how much fucking water do you drink to be pissing multiple times in an hour

Anonymous

#11 13w

She doesn’t drink enough, mostly sodas and juices (which make you have to pee more)

my thoughts… is she drinking more water/eating more lately as well? losing weight?

Gained some weight in the last year, but she also just started college

She doesn’t acknowledge it’s a problem and will not see a doctor

Or, and get this, pissing multiple times an hour is not normal, especially if you get to the point of discomfort multiple times in an hour. That amount of pissing suggests that the roommate is drinking too many diuretics or has a medical issue, not that the normal pisser is drinking too little water.

Being drunk makes you piss more often because alcohol lowers your inhibitions, and your inhibitions are what tell you “yeah we can hold it” so when they’re down and you have to piss even a little bit your brain is like “WE HAVE TO PISS RIGHT NOW!”

OP literally said this was multiple times an hour. That is not normal, even if someone is chugging water. Also, there is such a thing as drinking too much water and it tends to put unnecessary strain on the kidneys

Having a bladder like that isn’t a good thing. That’s a sign of an infection. It’s not quirky to neglect your health

I’ve had a bladder like that since birth and i’m perfectly healthy. i’ve had it checked by multiple doctors in multiple states and everyone said it was normal. you guys are just assholes…

If you read some of OP’s replies in the comments, you’ll find that in the case of their roommate, this is a recent development and she refuses to see a doctor while also continuously complaining about it. OP has every right to be annoyed in this situation.

I totally get that this is just the way your body is, and OP probably should have included that context from the beginning, but the point stands it is extremely unlikely to be the same situation with OP’s roommate

Dude she literally complains to me and, in her own words, “make it your problem”. Sometimes she won’t use the bathroom before getting on the bus and then complains. She’s not helping herself at all
