At first it was just for protection mainly (just in case of the occasional accident), but now i just wear them because when i wake up in the night needing to go to the toilet i just cant be bothered getting up. I am 15 years old now and these days i barely even wake up i don't even realize that im going in my drynites. A lot of mornings i just wake up with wet drynites and don't even remember waking up in the night, like i am just wetting like i used to. Is what i am doing normal and could it possibly be having any bad effects on me from doing this?
Oh, and when i sleep over at friends houses i bring my drynites in case and most night i will wake up wet, and most of those nights i wont remember waking up to go.
Given you are not aware that you are wetting at night, I would not necessarily describe this behaviour as deliberate. If your wetting were uncontrolled, then I would recommend that you (or your parents) make an appointment with your GP. A return to nighttime wetting may result from stress or overtiredness but it can also be the result of an underlying medical condition so it is essential that you rule this out first.
