Just dropping in to say hi and check how the healing process is going. @Reddy any updates?

I'm sure everything is fine. He's going to have a million and one priorities that are more important than keeping us updated every step of the way. Not to mention rather large adjustment period to this new life. @Reddytake your time. We are all looking forward to your next update.

@Reddydid you make it home safely?

Dude!! Congratulations!! I really really cannot express my gratitude for sharing this. I'm so glad most of your discomfort has gone. I'm so happy for you!

Good morning @Reddy, Today is the day! I'm so excited for you, I think about this thread constantly. Thank you for sharing your story on what is possible, it's really an eye opener and truly an inspiration. Have fun

I'd love to hear you talk about all of this and future stories/struggles/lessons on a podcast. If any host asks you in the future... just putting it out there. How are you feeling? Have you got everything you need?

Just outside of Norwich 😀

@Reddy I'm so pleased to hear you're on the mend! I'm so excited to hear about your recovery to true incontinence. Thank you for sharing your story with us

Good luck!!!! I did see uber eats will deliver to your hotel. There are diapers available to if you need more.

Honestly, suddenly I'm more interested... however at $9,999. I'd be very interested

Just jumping in to say I hope everything goes well! I've been lurking for a while and just wanted to share my support. There are lots of us positive supporters lurking in the background.

@DLJeff52 I'm one of those pesky lurkers that rarely logs in to DD but I had to reply to this thread. I want to say thank you, to you and all those others keeping track of your untraining. You absolutely inspire me to follow in your footsteps, though I'm not ready yet, I know that in time this is my true calling and in the near future I hope to pursue a similar journey to yourself. Keep up the amazing work!

I totally understand your thoughts on this, I suppose it mostly comes down to being home, while I was away working it was relatively easy to incorporate into my daily life. Where as now, I feel like I'm back in hiding. As for best6case scenario, I guess I just want someone close to me to accept me for who I am, and though I'm sure she already does, it doesn't lift any of the aweful stigma that comes with these feelings. By bringing this up again I hope to get that acceptance I've always longed for. I want nothing more than a 'you're weird but that's ok' Trust me when I say I'm not going to suddenly wear 24/7 or exhibiting myself around the place, its still for me and only me. But making sure everything is always hidden under lock and key is not something I want going forward. I'm always reading stories about other people coming out and it's the ones who just get accepted with minimal questions asked, always say how that huge weight is lifted off their shoulders. I want that! Just for someone to know.

Well where to begin, I intend to use this topic to help me come out to my cousin. She is more like my sister, we've been through a lot together and she knows me better than I know myself at times. Just like many people here on this forum, Nappies are my comfort item, I want them when I am stressed and depressed. Wearing them helps me clear my head and explaining that verbally to someone who may have many questions is far too daunting. Aside from the usual 2020 stress my life has flipped upside down, I've lost my job, bought a house, lost 2 grandparents and gained a god daughter within 6 months. This is also the longest I've been in 1 city for over 10 years. I understand that you don't know me, but from an outsider point of view how can I approach this subject that I haven't mentioned in well over a decade. I intend to let her read this thread in the hope it gives her a better understanding as to what I'm going through. Obviously the fear of rejection and being exposed is crippling but I fear for my mental health of having someone so close unaware of what I'm going through. What would you say? I told her when we were teens but I think she thought it was a phase but obviously I've accepted it is part of who I am.
