From a daily routine we have occasionally hot days here in the San Francisco / Bay Area and me only using plastic diaper briefs it can get hot and sweaty underneath. My routine is down to 4 diapers a day and I use ATN during the day plus Molicare at night, but with hot days I might change more often. I noticed also one negative slowly creeping in, my neglect to sports activities. It just slowed down tremendously and I am not exactly sure why, but maybe it has to do that I have not found yet the right method for my sports including protection.

Today marks my 1st-year anniversary of 24/7. Wearing diapers 24/7 and depending on it truly is a life changing experience in so many ways. I was not sure if I should write about it as I am not a great storyteller and it is very personal. On the other side I remember all the valuable information I absorbed from members sharing their stories about going down that incontinence path.

I live about 60 miles south and the shaking woke me up fortunatly it was not that long. My daughter crawled in my bed as she was scared needless to say I had my night diapers on.

Not sure where to post this, but thought this is funny what someone can do with a towel.

Hello Tena,

Welcome to DD!

I do miss Betty's contribution and communal participation. Hopefully she will come back at some point.

Weclome and I am sure you will find good information here.

Welcome!

Many did ask themself the question. It is what it is and each one has to come to terms on their own. Welcome!

Welcome!

I found BP is one of the most genuine helpful person here with outstanding advice. I do not understand the issue and hopefully a compromise will be worked out. All I can do is reach out thru this board message by saying that I miss your input and thoughts and hope you are soon back here.

Tomorrow it will be exactly 1 month wearing 24/7 and at times it has been challenging. My experience level compared to some of the members here is very limited, but as often expectation and reality tend to be not necessarily the same and there were some surprising elements for me.

Thank you for all the suggestions and concerns, really a great community. I am in the mid 40s and a long-term DL, but due to my personality I denied it and now looking back it feels like as I went thru a million binge and purge. Several months ago I changed my position, decided to accept it and adjust my life to it. As long as I can remember I always was sensitive to leaking. That was easy to manage, but somehow in the last weeks it got worse. I do soon have a Dr. appointment coming up to get it checked out.

My need shifted me 3 weeks ago to 24/7 and I noticed an overall slight increase on muscle cramps. I stay hydrated, get my daily dose of multivitamins, but was wondering what other 24/7 add on for various supplements/minerals/vitamins etc. Reading about it I could not find any clear recommendation. Any advice is welcome.
