The thing is, you have no idea what the day-to-day experience of being incontinent and requiring diapers all the time is actually like. You know the *fantasy* of being incontinent, but you don't know what it's actually like to live life in diapers 24/7. That's the rub, and that's why I agree with the folks who are encouraging you to actually experience it first.

Nah. I wear them on occasion, but modern disposables are plenty good enough that they're not necessary most of the time.

Could be that they're not selling well enough to justify being stocked. They're just the plain white version of Crinklz, produced by the same company.

As a 24/7 incontinent wearer, I find it helpful to have a variety of different diapers, providing a continuum of capacity, bulk, wearability, etc. - because you don't always need the same thing from a diaper. For example, on nights when I know I can really enjoy it, and wear it well into the morning, I'll use a boosted "premium" diaper like Tykables, MegaMax, Space, etc. However, on work nights, I have to get up early and get out the door, and a boosted premium is really overkill - so I'll often trust a boosted Tranquility ATN, which is generally enough to get me through from, say, 8 p.m.-6 a.m., and is much cheaper. My go-to work diaper is Tena Ultima, which generally has enough capacity to cover an 8-hour day plus commuting on either end, and is reasonably slim and discreet for the office. Around the house, I'll often wear ThreadedArmor cloth briefs, and if I'm going out hiking, I trust Abena M4s to be comfortable for active wear. Don't try to make one diaper fit all needs - there's a great variety out there, so take advantage of that to figure out what works best for you in each situation.

I take a combination of fiber supplements (apple pectin and psyllium) and Miralax (the latter suggested by my doctor). I find that this creates bowel movements which are easy to pass, but also relatively predictable, firm, and consolidated. If I take fiber mid-morning, and Miralax and another dose of fiber in the evening, I tend to have a relatively consistent full-emptying bowel movement each morning, which generally prevents the need to worry about messy changes at work.
