Most Annoying Thing About Being Incon. And Diaperd

[scotty61]

Not being able to change in a timely manner and having the diaper fall apart and loosing the white material in balls down you pant legs! Being on a trip for a few days and not able to fit enough diapers to get by and then having to buy a cheap brand at Walmart, or somewhere, and only able to fit half a bag in my luggage and wasting the rest.

When I am away from home, I don't worry about being seen changing in a public restroom. I used to really hate having to carry the wet diaper out of the stall to the trash bind and being seen, but I realized they don't know me and will never see me again. Plus, most people know about incontinence and it isn't as big a deal as we make it out to be.

i have battled with varying degrees of incont. since a child, plus using regression to cope with all the bad things happening in school due to physical handicap. I would always be looking for something to use as a diaper, but when my mom found them, or caught me wearing them, the response was always the same. She'd ask why I was wearing them and I could only shrug, and then she'd threaten to tell my dad and take me to a shrink. At age 13 I nurse yanked a catheter all the way out while trying to turn me in bed after my first back surgery. A few months later I really struggled with staying dry and bladder spasms. I used bath towels as a diaper, and because of my history with mom, I could never tell her the problems I was having. Also puberty was happening so I was, and still somewhat am, on screwed up person.

I have so much shame around my incontinence since I am also an AB that I still need/use to cope with life. (Lost career as a pilot due to both physical and depression and ended up on SSDI)

After my last back surgery in Dec. I was in the hospital for six days. The first half of the stay I needed help to change. Wanting to be treated as a baby I originally thought it would be nice when a nurse helped and that I may feel more like a baby and regress to better cope with pain and other things. Yet, when a nurse did help, I ended up doing as much as I could on my own. I felt to much shame about everything. Also, when I see pictures of AB's in diapers and playing with baby toys I feel disgusted thinking how weird they are, yet that is me when alone.

Sorry to ramble. Just joined this group tonight and need to pay attention on where to post things.

I ams still in therapy to try and make since of all these conflicting emotions I have.

The biggest issue with wearing diapers that I have is clothing because I want to wear regular shorts and pants, but reality of sweats and baggy overall bibs is more towards the style I wear, which saddens me! Any advice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got two that are equal (sort of) Finding a place to to change, and other...

The other is a compliment to that....

Rashes for me. I'm talking about the really bad ones that last for a week or more and get red raw no matter how much you treat & prevent them.

Yeah...black pants conceal leaks nicely...I just wear regular long pants and/or jeans, could probably do shorts but that's not allowed at work.

Leaks, I cannot predict when they will happen, it is always somewhere inconvenient and leaving a smelly wet seat in your friends living room is embarrassing.

Running low on supplies comes second and you can guarantee when the supply is low the next diaper out the bag has dodgy tapes and you kidneys are working overtime.

Definitely odor. It's really the only noticeable indicator that I'm wearing, but I feel bad whenever my fiance can smell my wet padding in bed. :<

the absolutely worst thing that can happen is being on a city bus thats full(standing room only) and you end-up filling your diaper right there

Sorry to say but that doesn't seem so bad to me, especially if your diaper doesn't leak.

it is when its loud and smelly

What bothers me most is heat and sweating. And rash.

I'd say leaks irritate me the most. You can prepare for everything else, and hey, I don't have the right to be irritated about finding a place to change, or crinkling noises, or bulk, because I did this to myself. But the unexpected leaks... it just seems like the Universe is punishing me when that happens. Thankfully, it's relatively rare, but, every once in a while, even a good diaper throws a curveball at you. "What the hell... these diapers cost $6 each and are rated to hold the amount of liquid present in a 12 pack of beer! How the F*** do I have a damp spot on the back of my thigh while I'm standing in a Costco 90 minutes after I put it on!?!?"

Taking everything that might be needed, on vacation, is more than annoying.

[WetDad]

Trusting new incontinent wear items. Diapers with huge numbers to describe their absorbency come to mind.

Having an accident in public is the most annoying thing for me specially when I mess my diaper. When I wet myself in public, nobody will notice but when I make a mess in my diaper in public, there is no hiding the smell of a load of poop and I have to stop what ever I am doing to go back to my truck and get my change kit and find a bathroom to change.

[munkey]

Driving somewhere, messing yourself and not being able to change for hours.

[hendrik]

Wetting seconds after you change. I change a lot while standing and sometimes I already dribble urine on a fresh diaper while changing. Super annoying.

About a month ago I had a conversation with one of my nieces about her infant son. She mentioned that one day she ended changing 3 poopy diapers in a very short time, as even after waiting to see if he was done, he ended up pooping more shortly after being changed. A week or so later, I messed my diaper and waited for about an hour to make sure that I was done. Cleaning up and putting on a clean diaper, I went back to what I was doing only to find myself pooping again. After waiting another hour or so, pooping a bit more during the hour, I again cleaned up and put on a fresh diaper. And yep about 90 minutes later I was again pooping. While none of these were particularly large, they were all sloppy. So just like my great nephew I had gone through 3 diapers in a very short time. 

 

As annoying as that is, pooping without warning or very little warning (seconds) is the most annoying bit.

My wife lets me know when I smell strongly of stale pee.

[deewet]

I too notice that stale odor smell of my night time diapers, if I have wet early in the night.  On the other hand, if I wet within an hour or two of getting up which is most common, not so noticeable.  So far my wife has not said anything, but it was at her urging that I get diapered each night prior to bet, so even if she notices as I do some times, doubt she will mention anything

I would have put "Other" because of the inconvenience when going on vacation.
