It sounds like you might be diabetic. You might want to go see your doctor and have it checked. A little info about diabetics. Diabetes, high cholesterol, and heart disease all run hand in hand.

OK I drink plenty of water a day about 1/2 to 3/4 of a gallon.
But 5 gallons seems seriously excessive.
GET TO A DR. FOR TESTING AND FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG.

There could be a number or reasons. diabetes and several other diseases that make the body want to drink excessive amounts of water. I would go to the Dr. to make sure you are healthy or get treatment if needed

well if that's true.. 5 gallons is too much you're water toxifying yourself.. which means your mineral counts are probably way low.
please cut the water intake by 90%.. only drink a half a gallon a day and please drink other things than water.. fresh juice.... for instance.
see a doctor.. there's a medical issue going on.
you may be diabetic.

it is called polydipsia. there are many many things that can cause this and it can be serious (diabetes melitus or insipidus, high blood sugar, kidney failure, heart failure, etc.) go to the doctor now.

if you truly can drink that much water, you need to see a doctor.

you need to talk to your doctor, usually it is a sign of diabetes..........but I definately would consult my doctor and tell him how you feel.
