I live alone, so it's almost always just a diaper in the house. If I get cold or am going out then it's covered.
Yup...

…and the hits keep coming. Mortgage rate is going up again.
Sounds like you got an ARM which really sucks when rates go up; especially now with inflation... Banks are paying over 5% for 3-month CDs with low initial investment. Sure am happy that mortgage was paid in full during 2021. Spent most of the time getting screwed like you and not liking it.

The benefits of wearing diapers are almost too numerous to count, for me. It starts with mental health - I am just a way happier person, when I'm in a diaper, and other than infrequent diaper rash, and taking up space in my house (and budget), the side-effects are, in my opinion, harmless in comparison to taking mood-altering drugs, for example.
AS usual, you speak truth and wisdom grasshopper.

During divorce, I temporarily moved back into my parent's home. They were well aware of my vision and incontinence issues. Before leaving to a scheduled event, my mother noticed a lot of crinkling from me while on the way out of the house. She insisted that I go back and put on a pair of plastic pants to kill the noise. After doing so, she gave her approval and we left. Since then, I have plastic pants on, regardless of diaper type, time, or event. No exceptions, no matter where or what. It is the best!!!

If I could tell that it's there, I'd probably like it. No eyesight = is there a wetness indicator -- really?

Being strictly a plastic lover, I can't really speak to diapers, but plastic panties sure as hell are a sexual turnon for me. This was such a strong main attraction for me for so many years that it took decades for me to realize that wearing plastic is a comfort item for me too. I always sleep in plastic pants, very often with a plastic romper or dress over them; nothing feels more luxurious and relaxing than waking up in plastic.
I'll raise that and call -- yeah baby!!!!
Plastics is the best!!!

I completely agree with Rusty. Capacity isn't always the determining or desired factor. Get a good diaper and resolve to change it somewhere along the way. Can't emphasize the importance of an overpant -- I prefer plastic, but it's your choice. Finding a place to change isn't that hard -- I've used stalls multiple times and really don't care who sees me throwing a used diaper away. You'll probably never see them again. And if you do, so what?

the official definition for bladder IC from urology:
Any involuntary loss of urine of any amount.
Any questions?

Everyone is right. It's an almost impossible task.
The best way to handle it? This may sound harsh but it's not: Time to seriously consider going out on your own. You won't regret it.

Unlike you, I've been screwed from the beginning,
My insurance (whether employer supplied or later Medicare had no provisions for diapers and the cost has been fully borne by me.
I could never qualify for Medicaid as my income level was too high, even when considered disabled. To this day, I bear the full cost of wearing and using diapers. I am on a fixed income which still keeps me barely above the poverty line which I conclude is done purposely. My fixed income is higher than many others as I paid an exorbitant amount in taxes during my lifetime.
I found a good supplier and Betterdry diapers at a reasonable cost that I can afford. Northshore was never a cost effective option for me.
A colonoscopy was suggested last week and I turned them down. Did the same for the one you do at home but have to play with your poop to send in a sample. Ain't happening.
Stay well and prosper.

Plan ahead.
Pack smart... Use a backpack and take enough diapers and supplies to get you to your destination. This includes any connection flights and layovers.
Pack enough in checked luggage to get you through your trip. Scope out diaper supply locations in advance so you have a backup source if necessary. If you need to, ship a case of diapers in advance to your destination and pick up when you get there.
Reverse the above on the return trip.
This has worked well for me in the past.
Good luck.

After 25+ years 24/7, and many doctors later, you soon realize two things: The only one who cares about their style or type of underwear is you; your doctor may notice your underwear and may or may not comment. They really don't care if you need it or not, especially if you tell them that you've got it handled. Even if you just like to wear them and may or may not use them requires no explanation. It's easier to be shy and avoid the issue but bringing it out leads to freedom.

The Elder Cato, On Agriculture 157 (Loeb translation): "If you save the urine of a person who eats cabbage habitually, heat it, and bathe the patient in it, he will be healed quickly. This remedy has been tested. Also, if babies are bathed in this urine they will never be weakly."

I'm always in plastic pants, even when I'm in disposables. It gives an extra layer of warning when I need changing, and it just feels right.
That's a good boy.
3 hours ago, TigerTy said:I never wear plastic pants and they don't really look comfortable or little to me, but I think it's because they were not common growing up in the 90s/2000s
Try it. You'll love it. They feel so good and look oh so babyish.

them. I discovered other places that sell better fitting and better quality onesies for just about $5 more.
I still warn everyone not to but anything from them. If their biggest market drops some because of my warning to everyone on this site, maybe they will get their act together, or at the very least start responding to emails without being threatened about their total lack of response and customer service.
That's the problem when they're on the way out. They don't care anymore and customer service goes bye-bye as they swirl around and down the toilet. Not good enough for a diaper analogy.

I can give you a recommendation for the contour cotton twill diaper with soaker insert from Changing Times Diaper Company. I have one and it is just as good as a disposable. It holds a lot very well and works very well at night. No velcro involved; you'll need fasteners. Not cheap, but will pay for itself soon enough. You may only need one during the day.

Whatever you do, don't place an order with Paddedbums out of Washington State. Here's why. Over 2 years ago I ordered a couple of onesies that I have been happy enough with. I needed them for a vacation trip. I plan on another vacation in August and wanted a couple more. On June 6th I ordered a light blue and a white onesie and received email confirmation I would be notified when it ships. 9 days later I was still waiting for notification. I was able to contact them and was told the order was canceled at my request! BULL! I told them so via email and replaced my order. That was June 16. I received order confirmation and ever since then I have not be able to contact them. No reply to their "Lets Chat" on their website, when I try and track my order it says "Waiting Fulfillment". I sent them messages including through a different email and through their contact us on the website. I have never received any contact. I tried to call the number listed on the website "Contact Us" (this was at 3pm their time on Wednesday) and it went to an answering service voice mail. Not sure what is going on but I would not place any orders with their company! I'm having to check my credit card and will have to have them remove any charges.
If you are looking for a good onesie, try these https://amzn.to/3XAAP9u I ordered one in Yellow and got it a few days ago. It fits great and has stretch to the fabric. They don't have white but REARZ has one that is comparable in looks and price. https://rearz.ca/white-unisex-adult-snap-bodysuit/
If you can, check your account online; if not call the number on the back of the card and they'll be glad to help you confirm and if needed, dispute the charge. The sooner you do it, the less the credit card company will question the legitimacy of your claim. Matters like this can be resolved overnight. Usually with no pain.

Isn't there meds to help with IBS? I'm currently struggling with that and will be asking the DR about it.
-
Did you use a credit card, and if so, have you disputed the charge? This usually gets them off their duffs pretty quickly. If not, you get your cash back right away. They don't care who the vendor is. Good luck.

Not a Doctorate. I havd discussed my Abnormal Psych class and as recent as yesterday, about going to college
One of my eye doctors has discussed with me about peorsons who try to destroy much of their eyesight so they can go on the dole and not have to work. I can tell you, they are in for severaly nasty surprises. The first of which is what it as like foing from fully sighted to very low vision (which I have been all my life). Just wait until they lose their driver's license
I guess I'm like you -- with almost no vision at all. I can relate. My insurance makes no provision for coverage. I get premium Better Dry diapers for about $100/case (60 diapers total). One order per month covers the needs. I buy a couple other cases of Crinklz and InControl Elites in case I run out of Better Dry's but that almost never happens. Plus, if I do get short, I can always switch to the 6-8 cloth diapers I have in stock. Love the twill contour from CTDC. Rivals a disposable.

Some of you may have seen my recent posts about the onesies I ordered and immediately returned because the 4X were more like size LARGE and just way too small and cheap, I went back to ones I know work well enough at a good price. PaddedBums. I ordered two of them 6 days ago and they haven't shipped yet. After someone else posted about Baby-pants.com I checked them out and they have a yellow t-shirt onesie. I've been looking for a plain yellow t-shirt onesie but it seems Baby-pants.com is sold out of my size in all their onesies! They only have size large and down. If anyone knows where to get a good quality yellow t-shirt style adult onesie in sizes XXXLarge or XXXXLarge, please let me know.
If baby-pants.com isn't out of business by now it's a major miracle. They went to hell and I quit buying from them years ago. I have anumber of their onesies. They once were good and have many of them. Other suppliers are CTDC and InControl, of late has become my supplier. Too bad the color selection is so limited. Colors other than black or white would be nice. Some day I'll try Rearz if they have colored polo style.
Are your diapers strictly underwear, or do you spend time in them uncovered, and if so, how much?

Always wear plastic or in your case PUL. Don't chance it.
