Beyond the Bathroom: Rebuilding Your Social Life With DI is a practical, empowering guide for anyone living with Diabetes Insipidus who refuses to let constant bathroom breaks control their life.

With honesty, warmth, and proven strategies, Matthew Petchinsky shows how to move from isolation and hesitation to confidence and connection. This book tackles the real challenges DI creates-missed events, awkward conversations, and the anxiety of being far from a restroom-and turns them into opportunities for growth, planning, and freedom.

Inside, you'll find simple systems for mapping bathrooms, building a "Freedom Plan" for outings, communicating your needs without embarrassment, and preparing for everything from coffee dates to concerts. Learn how to travel with less stress, navigate workdays smoothly, and rejoin the social activities you've been avoiding.

Drawing on practical tips and mindset shifts, Beyond the Bathroom proves you can live a vibrant, full life with DI-one where you're back in the seat at the movie, present at the party, and confident enough to say "yes" to adventures again.

Whether you're newly diagnosed or have lived with DI for years, this book is your blueprint for stepping out of the bathroom's shadow and into a life of joy, connection, and possibility.
