If this happens often, get yourself checked out for diabetes.
Waking up at night to drink or pee are one of the most common symptoms.
could be other things, i breathe through my mouth when sleeping and it’s like a desert when I wake up.
you also just naturally dehydrate during the evening
It could be, for sure, but nevertheless should be checked out. The meme specifically says 4AM, if you wake up dry in rhe morning its less worrisome, waking up at night to drink is more concerning.
Sleep apnea as well.
And Bioténe mouthwash is the BEST when you wake up dry.
Xylimelts are great for keeping your mouth from drying out in the first place. They have a natural adhesive on one side to stick in your cheek and the xylitol dissolves through the night stimulating your saliva production.
I have sleep apnea and use them daily to keep my mouth from drying out with the small amount of air as it escapes my mouth
It’s just extremely common in general. But I thought this meme was about having a hangover. Slurping shit down straight from the tap like an animal because you didn’t drink water before going to bed.
The peeing part can also be gout (personal confirmation).
What you should do if you drink/pee often at night is to get tested, because it could be a lot of things.
Yea, I point to diabetes primarily because unchecked it is probably the most debilitating cause.
Mmm, fair point.
Would a dr know I have it if I’ve been seen recently?
I get up to pee like 2-3 times a night. I also keep water next to my bed.
If you raised the issue, hopefully they considered it, but they can’t see it on a routine visit. The two main ways we check for it would be:
-
an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), where you get serial blood sugar measurements for two hours - before and after drinking a specific amount of glucose on an empty stomach in the morning.
-
A blood test called HbA1c which correlates to your average blood sugar over the last 3 months.
I didn’t mention it. Thank you for taking the time to answer. TIL I might have diabetes from a meme

Hydrohomies needs to move to lemmy!
I remember being sick, when swallowing and even talking caused an extreme pain, and fantasising about drowning, I’d shower the inside of my mouth just to wash away the foul feeling of dryness.
Definitely a mood
Every time when eating pizza
Pizza makes my younger as well as my throat so dry
That cat has had too much catnip.
WTF don’t drink tap water or you’d get butt worms!!

I’m saying you should boil it first
Brought to you by Big Kettle!!
I like how I’m offering generally good advice and you guys just treat it like a conspiracy
Not all countries have shitty tap water.
Nice try, Big Kettle SHILL!
Not everyone lives in a swamp that uses unfiltered water
better safe than butt worms
My dude you ever heard of cities with good water treatment plants?
That’s like “better safe than butt worms” when you are offered a steak from a 5 star restaurant
If they’re from a “boil your water” kind of place, they also probably order steak well done, so same thing.
No, it’s not. The steak is already cooked. Boil your water before drinking it.
Yes it is. That’s water treatment plants are for 🤡
Now tbf those are the same places that say there’s “safe” levels of toxic chemicals in your water
The distance between a restaurant’s kitchen and my table is so short that the chance of contemplation is pretty slim. I guess you can say it’s the same if you live beside the water treatment plant.
Yeah! Drink the same water but packaged in plastic waste!
I’m saying you should boil it first
The bottle?
I always boil it before drinking, but most people I know don’t bother with that
Where are you living ?
Must be next to a raw sewage pipe
Fun fact: there are other countries than the USA!
er, why did you assume I’m in USA?
Because USA has shitty tap water, and when someone acts like their country is the whole world (which you did by assuming that OP also has shitty tap water), they’re almost always an American.
That’s racist. But I’m not an American so I don’t care.
