Coming soon to theaters, Thirst, one man's journey to continuously drink water throughout the day, because if he doesn't, THEN HE DIES!

Never Stop Drinking

Coming to theaters May 2025

Yes, it's a documentary-stylized movie just following around this dude as he desperately drinks enough water to stave off the grim reaper.

Holy shit, what an incredibly difficult life.

I feel like this kind of person needs an entire town around him. Like, just give him all the things. My god, what a horrible hand to be dealt in life.

How does he sleep then? He'll probably just die eventually from lack of sleep and his body becoming weaker and weaker.

You would think some sort of IV would help with a situation like this, considering that's the first thing they do when a "normal" person is suffering for dehydration.

You'd think something like a constant IV drip of Ringers Lactate (which they give in extreme dehydration cases) or a saline solution of some type would at least alleviate some of his condition.

Also wonder if they ever looked into a kidney transplants.

People with diabetes have to pee a lot more often because the kidneys are trying to rid the blood of excess sugar and water is lost as a result. But this? This is absolutely insane.

I'm beyond confused here. I keep seeing this kinda stuff about this now, and it's not how the disease works exactly. They make medicine for it.

I also have diabetes insipidus due to pituitary tumors I had starting at 14. All I have to do for it now is take desmopressin, also known as ddavp twice a day. It is true that without it I'll go through several gallons of water a day, but it usually isn't like this unless he specifically can't or won't take the medicine.

Usually when you get it as a child you have to take the medication or you die. No idea why this dude isn't on it.

It depends on the mechanism.

Like, it could be similar to yours (central DI, coming from the brain or pituitary) or it could be in the kidneys (nephrogenic), and that drug wouldn't do anything to help.

I feel like they should be able to hook him up with a water drip and catheter setup so he can get a full night's sleep.
