    I get headaches before I have any feeling I'd recognize as thirst. Exercise and dry or salty foods will do it, but otherwise not so much. I've been this way as long as I can remember. Always associated it with how my hunger signals are also messed up, makes sense to me for both of them to be confused. All I do now is keep a water bottle with me all day. I take a sip any time my saliva seems thicker and after every few bites at meals, and once I established that habit it became more instinctive.

    I do. Unless I'm exercising or sweating, I don't get "thirsty" very often. I have a 64 ounce water bottle, and I drink half of it first thing in the morning, and if I haven't emptied it by dinner (which I usually haven't) I drink the rest of it. It's actually on my daily to-do list to remind me to drink.

    In winter I definately don't drink as much water but I up my tea consumption. As others have already said you know by the colour of your pee if you need more fluids.
