Overview

The Thirst Beyond Reason is a powerful, deeply human exploration of life with one of the world's most misunderstood conditions: Diabetes Insipidus (DI). Unlike diabetes mellitus, DI has nothing to do with sugar-and everything to do with the body's inability to retain water. This book pulls back the curtain on what it truly feels like to live in constant thirst, with relentless urination, disrupted sleep, and the emotional toll of being disbelieved. Written by Matthew Petchinsky-a survivor who lives with both Diabetes Insipidus and kidney damage-this guide blends personal experience, medical clarity, and practical tools. Inside, you'll discover the science made simple, effective hydration strategies, treatment options like desmopressin (DDAVP), and emotional support techniques to help manage the mental toll of this invisible illness. With real survivor stories, DIY electrolyte recipes, medical ID templates, and advocacy letters, this book empowers you to take charge of your health, find community, and reclaim your voice. Whether you're newly diagnosed, searching for answers, or supporting a loved one, The Thirst Beyond Reason offers the truth, tools, and validation you've been craving. You're not alone. And you're not imagining it. This book proves it.
