Thanks, Carolyne, for sharing. You are not alone with the bladder issue. And I can assure you it has nothing to do with menopause. At least not in my case 😀.

But, seriously, my wife has the same experience. One could expand on your "routine" of thinking about the comfort of your warm bed vs. doing something constructive. Just imagine a kind of activity that exposes one to blistering cold outside, or any other scenario that highlights the current comfort of the bed. So, the next time you face that "hate" situation", maybe try the microdose of exercise. You can still hate the world after those 5 minutes.
