Sleepwalking & Peeing

I have this problem. It has happened when I drank a lot as well as when I drank a moderate amount. I have a history of sleepwalking when I was young, but it went away apparently until I got old enough to drink. I'm a high stress individual. I don't show it much, but I worry about too many things. Sleepwalking/peeing only happens (to my knowledge) when I drink. My theory is that I go into an abnormally deep sleep. And, after drinking, the seal is broken, and you have to pee more frequently. What I've found is that focusing on sobering up, drinking less, and making sure to use the bathroom a couple times before bed helps. I think the best solution is to moderate the drinking which is good anyway & know that it will happen on occasion unless he stops drinking completely. We all have our quirks. :)
