Some meds contribute, too
Esp. the anti-psychotics, which aren't mentioned much on this list. They can make you constantly thirsty and drive water intoxication, but for most non-schizophrenics, I think you're pretty safe.
I have to watch potassium when I'm working outside in the summer, but my twitchy legs tell me when I need that.
I use a full bladder as a personal alarm clock. I have a big glass when I brush my teeth at both ends of the day, and I've worked out how much I can hold overnight. But it's good for me to go to bed with a "full load" so that all my little dehydrated cells (don't use a/c) can get "refreshed" overnight. It is AMAZING how much water I can drink in the hour before bedtime in the summer, and have not much show up in the morning.
