eli5/ why do we have such a tolerance for needing to pee when asleep?

1.09K views

if i am awake and drinking like I usually do i’ll pee extremely frequently and the accumulation of that fluid is never apparent when looking at me but when i wake up i have so much stuff to pee out that accumulated at the bladder that i look like I’ve just found out i’m pregnant why is it that if i tried to hold it in when i was awake i’d be in a great deal of discomfort but i don’t wake up in discomfort but am visibly swollen with fluid

I think sometimes it’s psychological.

Do you ever feel fine, and then randomly you have to pee, but someone is in the washroom. You feel like you are going to wet yourself. You’re tiptoeing around. The person is talking forever. Then randomly the urger goes away. Weird.
