I drink a ton of water. My dr actually tried to tell me I was drinking too much, especially since it interfers with my sleep.

I do sometimes have nights I don't wake up but most nights I do wake up to go to the bathroom. If I get up, I drink more water. I could down a 20 oz bottle but usually stop myself from drinking the whole thing.
I have decided I love my water more than my sleep.
So I agree..if you are thirsty, drink.
