My Story

While I have had extensive periods of enuresis since my teens, I am now in a place where my body seems to process stress through incontinence.  It became a problem when I couldn't stop from uriniating in public.  At first i had the sensation that I had to go, but couldn't stop it.  Over time I have had less of a sensation that I even need to go and have suffered atrophy to a point where I am choosing diapers over surgeries and meds.  I feel blessed to have an incredibly supportive wife and have only recently (after two years of this 24/7 incontinence) come to a peace with where I'm at in life. 

 

Wearing diapers gives me a confidence to get through the day without worrying about leaks or embarrasing accidents, of which I've had my share.  At times I still have to fight off bouts of shame with wearing and at times I'm convinced everyone can hear my diapers, but I know this is not the case. 

 

For those out there suffering with finding the right combination of products to give you confidence, I highly recommend some form of onsie for adults.  I have found these give support and help discretely keep diapers from creeping into view.

 

I hope I can be an encouragement to those in a similar place in life and know that without my wife, this would be far more difficult a lifestyle to embrace.

 

Blessings!

i understand  where  you are  coming from i  had to come to terms when my  bed and sheets were  getting  wet  every night.   it took  a while for my perants come to  terms with it.   they  finaily realize there is no other  way  around it now. so i have to wear them every night. 

 

And it is hard  wearing them in public for  example i  was babysitty my young cousins ages 8 to 14  i  was up  walking the  dog in the morining  and still tired and was planing to go back to bed so of course i kept it on.  

 

I could hear the  diaper making the nocie daiper makes i have no clue if my yougest  cousins heard it or  saw it  when it probely peak out of my pants  that i  was wearing that night.  i am so  fearful if  someone will see it and will not  understand why i got to have them.

 

even though i  came to understand that i  need them.   i have  no clue if my  family  will understand that

That makes no sense...at all. To say that you "just wet my pants" is to say that you can't even keep yourself clean. I don't get it. You soak your pants, what about your surroundings i.e. clothes, chairs, beds, floors.....

 

Please don't view this as an attack on you as that is NOT my intentions, but your comment simply makes zero sense.

Sorry man, but I think that I am going to have to agree with the other people... If you think two diapers a day is a lot, then you most likely don't wear out of incontinence and are some sort of fetishist. I am fully incontinent and use well over that, more like 8-10, just though I would point it out to all.... Don't feed the Troll!

I have also finally accepted my incontinence as a part of me.  Sounds like we have alot in common.  You mentioned the adult onsies... Let me add that they are also marketed as "body suits" and will be a lot better quality and cheaper price buying them that way then as specific "onsies".

Hello,

 

     I have heard the adult onsies are good to use for a few reasons. One being that it keeps the diaper snug in place which not only prevents leaks, but because it's connected you don't have to worry about the shirt riding up and showing the diaper. I want one but have not had the money just yet.

 

     Since I have been wearing diapers for bed wetting and day accidents for a bit over 17 years now I have tried several brands and combo's. I have been a pretty heavy wetter. So I need something that can handle it. The store brands were what I had to use most times, and they often leaked without help. I was told a tip, to buy size 6 or 7 baby diapers and cut several slits in the plastic backing to help boost the absorbancy. 1 was alright during the day, but two-3 was needed for overnight deepending on what I had drank close to bed. The other method for boosting the abosrbancy, is walmart in the baby care section has cloth diapers. I get the toddler size and use 2 during the day and 4 for overnight. If you don't mind a extra load of the diapers every 3 or 4 days they are a nice option. I like the cloth baby diapers because they are wider and longer than using the baby diapers as booster and it's rare I have a leak with those. Also as far as good diapers, you have to get these online but Molicare Super Plus is a great diaper for moderate to heavy wetting, and for the ultimate no leak worry I love the Uniquebreifs. They are made to hold near 3 liters of urine without leaking. They were intended for bed riden patients so they only need to be changed every 10-12 hours. I get about 8-10 hours out of each one, even with a few heavy accidents. They run about $55.55 for a 20 pack of diapers including shipping, or 85.00 for a 40 diaper case. Of course it's always better to order by the case if you have the money. The newest diaper brand which holds close to the Uniquebriefs is Dry247. The only issue is if your a big guy like me they don't really carry the larger size. Dry247's large goes up to a 58 inch waist. But if your average size adult you should be alright. Otherwise Uniquebriefs is your better bet with them fitting up to a 64 inch waist. I hope people looking for a good product finds this information useful. And I just wanted to add, if you are looking for a safe and helpful place like this site to talk about bed wetting you can drop by my site at www.bedwettingabdl.com. I got tired of alot of the sites out there where you post and get called names and such. It got old fast. Well, take care and be well all.
