Thank you. I have heard about a link with children and mental health issues. Just have not seeing anything on bafukts and secondary enuresis.

Actually I read that secondary enuresis is more related to stress and anxiety, one of the reason that I remember it is that mess up with our body and even though your sleep pattern doesn’t seem to change your body does and may produce more urine during nighttime because of hormone disregulation, I don’t bed wet because of my anxiety, but I vomit get fevers so there are different ways that our body can mess up because of anxiety, another thing that may happen is high blood pressure( I do have that sometimes) and there are studies that link bed wetting to high blood pressure because the body is trying to reduce liquid in the body and the way is making more urine, I hope that helps
