Admitting my bedwetting problem to my family

All my life I have persistently wet the bed at night and all my life I've tried to hide my problem from others. I am embarrassed to wet the bed at my age and I don't like people knowing it happens but sometimes they find out. I can't help it or I wouldn't be wetting my bed ever. I have never met another adult who bedwets, I would be great to speak to other people who wet at night

I know your pain I wet 24/7. Though it is due to an injury that I have been wetting myself uncontrollably for thr last 6 years I was a nightly bedwetter until I was almost 17 years and know and understand the embarrassment and uncomfortability of family finding out by accident

There are really great nighttime products that can help contain urine and keep your bed dry. And also help make sure your skin is kept safe. If you need help with these kinds of products, we can all help.

I'm a lifetime bedwetter(it started when i was 4), started wearing diapers to bed(discretly) at about age 17. Had kidney surgery at 18, and began wearing at night my mom and others knew by then; sometimes during the day, also. My former wife use to diaper me....now it's 24/7 & most of friends know-it's just not talked about(at least when I'M around...)

I'm a bed wetter when my brief fails me at night. You should see our mattress.

Hang in there, You aren’t alone in this. I recently came across a company called northshore and they make a brief called megamax. May be worth trying them if you haven’t yet.

Hope this helps. They do an amazing job for me at least.
