Hello ! You wrote that you drink a ton of water, the first thing that comes to mind is,drinking too much water can make you bolus,and there for keep you thirsty,then again, it depends how active you are too. The next thing that comes to mind ,is it could be a medical problem,even more then an imbalance of electrolytes or diabetes. Only your Dr. can tell for sure with a simple blood test,call your Dr for an appointment to find out for sure and ease your own mind. I hope this helps.

Good question, I'm the exact same way!

i'm the same way, i always have to be drinking something.

Now I'm not saying you have this but one of my family memebers had the same problem and it turned out that she was diabetic. It also could be an imbalnce of your electrolites..I would try drinking gatorade and if that doesnt help I would conuslt a doctor

Although probably not, if you are younger (teen), you should look into symptoms of diabetes. About 5 years ago my brother started always drinking tonnes of watter. Soon after, we found that he was diabetic.

Get better :-) !

It may be nothing. It could be psychogenic thirst (i.e. you're a little crazy but a lot of people are so don't worry). It could be a pituitary problem. I'd talk to your doctor about it because it could be indicative of a problem. It's relatively simple to narrow it down.

If you're drinking at least eight 8 ounce glasses of water per day and you're still thirsty all the time you should see your Dr. There are serious medical conditions associated with excessive thirst.

you might be diabetic. see a doctor asap

This is a summer season, so you drink some soft drinks & also butter milk

You may be severely dehydrated due to being in an air-conditioned room for too long or you may be showing the symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes. Better have a blood test done to be sure.
