  • For those prone to a desire to Pee at inconvenient moments, I wonder if it would help if you just said to yourself "Don't be silly, I've only just been, I can't possibly need to go again so soon",
    I know there is a "Tearful" emoji but perhaps they should introduce one for the other end ?  That way, if anyone needs to cut a post short because of a sudden urge, a quick Pee emoji may be useful - the risk of damp clothes/chairs could be lessened if not completely eliminated.

    When I’m at home I rarely go for a pee, when I was working I would go before I went out but the minute I got into the churchyard I’d be absolutely bursting.  Why is that, I wouldn’t have want to go if I’d stayed in. 
    That'll be my problem then @Lyn Overlooking both Churchyard and Cemetary I probably can't win ;)

    That is exactly what I have to do,   Sometimes I just do though,  always places near remote churchyards, I’m not proud, 😀

    It gets worse haha! I haven't just been at that point. If you don't pee all day, you're not drinking enough,you should be going 4 to 6 times. It's bad for you to "hold on"

    If you really want to know, there's two kinds of incontinence : stress incontinence and urge incontinence. Stress can be cured by pelvic floor exercises and urge by training the bladder to be less sensitive.

    Doubling consonants is a spelling issue. Double incontinence is something else entirely.

    This forum is such a mind of information, where else would you find out how to pee properly  :D:D:D

  • As a kid I once went 36 hours between needing a pee despite drinking as normal. When I did need to go I was at a mates and walked into the toilet to find out his mum was on it.  That was when very young and I've had a problem going in people's houses ever since. I mean who doesn't lock the bathroom door when sitting on the thrown?

    However at the same sort of age I'd be on family camping holidays I'd go to bed late and get up early with pee trips at each end of the sleep.  However on waking I was always, always so very desperate that we had a bucket. I was OK until I say up then I had seconds until disaster! Even now my third thing I do of a morning is wee. First glasses on,  second get up. I am middle aged being just under 50yo but I've noticed I'm on the slippery slope to last drink before 6pm, the leaving the house last minute pee, the homecoming rush to the lavatory. It's the cycle of life. Born having accidents then often approach death having accidents,  probably a long time before death having to take precautions.

    When is your last drink of the day? How long before bed? Often a sign of age I reckon. I'm still on half a hour. I'm not yet 50.

    Last drink....about 10.30 pm. Most times up at 7.30am for a pee.

    I usually get up around 3am - not because I need a pee, but because the dog does. Most dogs seem to be perfectly able to sleep for 8 hours or more without piddling on the carpet, but this one can't
