I COULD ASK those braindead idiots on yahoo answers or I can ask some more intelegent people.
Well, I was staying at a freinds the night before for a job fair the following morning, and there was no where to sleep so we where going to pull the matress off the boxspring so I could throw a blanket over it and sleep on that. During the process I looked at his/her piss stained sheets, and humored him/her how your mommy must have gotten them from the thrift store. Well the next morning when I was helpin him/her put the bed back together I noticed the giant pool of piss that accumulated over the night where my freind slept. I didn't say anything.
LAST NIGHT after the job fair (was fantabulous may be getting hired) my freind slept over at my place. Well he/she slept on my cot I have, and we went to sleep after only getting 3 hours of ZZZ'z the night before. So then that morning when we left for the library (2 hours ago) I was going to put pillows and blankets away and I noticed the same pool of what is probably urnine.
Well I confronted my freind and said stuff like "dude, you better get this checked out man. This stuff can lead to permenent damage to yourself if you let it go unchecked" after 10 minutes of "I don't know what your talking about." and "I drink to much water." Well I want the best for this guy/gal whom really has NO IDEA their current situation. My Guess is Urinary Tract infection or something. No one still wets the bed just because. My assumption, is its from NOT drinking ANY water, and Drinking soda at phenomenal rates. Not ever drinking water is not good. Soda is not a substitute.
Please help me, IDK how to break this guy/girls reluctance to get this checked out or to tell anyone

However, there was a SHITLOAD of mildew and mold all OVER this persons house. It was there for a while before anyone done anything about it. I'd be surprised if its inside the walls and vents now too. Assuming Mold and Mildew count towards substance exsposure like drugs
I have never, ever seen a case of urinary tract infection that makes someone wet the bed.
I'm assuming your friend is well over toddler age, and most cases of bed-wetting with teenagers stem from psychological issues. Sadly, that means you can't do anything to help him/her except recommend therapy.
If you like, I can look it up in my handy, dandy book of disorders to see if bed wetting is a symptom of any major mental disorders.
But then again, it could just be that they just never learned to use the bathroom at night, or that they're scared of the dark and don't want to get up to use the bathroom.
It's great that you care about your friend, but you can't really help them unless they want help, which is doesn't sound like your friend does.
And please do, because this guy/gal is likely not going to get anything done about it unless he.she is forced to.
I would hope its something mental rather then a physical ailment, becuase that could develop into something more serious.
BTW he she is 16 going on 17
The most probable answer, then, might be Enuresis. Usually, it's diagnosed between ages 5 and 10, but there are cases where teenagers and even adults have had it. In fact, 1% of people over the age of 18 (Americans, I'm guessing) have this problem.
For some reason, a treatment isn't listed for this disorder, so I don't really know how to advise you. Maybe just casually mention, when you're alone with the person of course, that there are plenty of people who have the problem, and that it can be fixed if they see a doctor.
Also, there are a few physical disorders that cause bed wetting, including diabetes (mostly untreated diabetes), seizure disorders (but I think you'd notice that), and spina bifida.
There could be any medley of issues from weakening sphincter to soul crushing depression. And it could be habitual as well. At any rate if it's not intentional it needs looked at.
Thats what I am trying to get him her to look at it but apperently theres "no problem"
Please, please tell your friend incontence isn't something to be ashamed of - that many people have it and that IF s/he doesn't get it checked out, they could be in for a mountian of problems later.
Just a guess here, but I'd say your friend is/was in an abusive household - and ashamed to come forward about it. They may have been sexually abused as a child, or physically - it's hard to get over that kind of stuff.
S/he will be in my prayers. I hope for the best, sweetie.
*hugs*
My REAL opinion would be to Actually ask a professional. Even if he/she won't go, you can still do some research and try to save them through
your own means.
Id agree, get them on water. If it's male, could be prostrate problems.
But he may also be terrified that something is horrifically wrong with him which is why he doesnt want to tell. I know whenever I have a problem that I think may be super serious, my first instinct is not to tell anyone because I don't want to hear that I'm right, and I have something deathly wrong with me, which is like, the WORST thing you can do! The earlier you catch it, the earlier you can treat it, and in the long run, telling someone at the first sign of a problem can save your life!
Offer him a confidant in you, and look up possible problems online with him while ya'll are alone or something. Sounds to me like hes in denial, but I sure hope nothings wrong.
Best wishes. <3
Good luck with solving this though.
