Does wearing Diapers remind anyone of their childhood and if so why?

Hi everyone this is just an odd ball conversation I am writing it because I bord and I am wearing Diapers at this time.

As many of you already know I started wearing Diapers back in 2010 not long after I turned 30 anyway recently I had a question that kept bugging me so here it is in my current situation I am approaching 40yrs of age and wearing Diapers makes me feel kind of young again as if it's a natural way of re-connecting with my lost childhood years.

Does anyone else feel 5he same way or is it just me?, You see when I feel the padding between my legs and the soft outer backing it provokes powerful and ultimately pleasant memories of my care-free innocent years when all I had were good times, I know for most people this might seem odd as I am a grown man in his late 30's who is about to become 40 in 2-3 yrs time.

But I feel when I put a fresh diaper on I am back in my early years before I turned 5yrs I was potty trained late due to my severe disabilities although laying here in bed wearing noting but Diapers and a t-shirt kind of makes me wonder why I had to give up wearing them in the first place?, although wearing Diapers does provide a wonderful escape from my worries and problems if only for one day or night.

And on another subject whilst I don't consider myself a and or anything remotely like that I do feel pleasantly child like at this time so if I am not alone why not reply to my subject as I would be happy to respond to you as were all friends here on this website.

Anyway got to catch up on my sleep now so I will write again at a later time.

Yours sincerely

Nothing odd with how you feel or, what you are thinking about. We all have these feelings, and in some way try to get in touch with them. Some more then others, and for lots of us, it goes back to days when we were still in diapers.

I can go on, but time doesn't permit right now. More on this later.

As Has been said nothing odd about how you feel or are thinking. As for myself when in my sissy baby mode I like nothing better than sit and play with toys or colour in it is very relaxing

Sorry for the disjointed reply, but I had to leave for work, and had to wrap it up quick.

I think the older we get, the more we lament our childhood. Usually, it's the best time of ones life, and we so want to get back to that time and place. A much simpler, and much less complicated time.

I always tell my wife, how much I would like to go out in nothing but, my diaper, plastic pants, shirt, and play with my trucks in the dirt. Someday, I may get to do just that, but it's not possible right now. My neighbors just would understand, some old guy out in a diaper, playing with his toy trucks.

Yes.

I had continence problems and was out of full-time diapers very late. I've spent far more of my life in diapers involuntarily at least part-time than I have completely out of them.

Waking up every morning soaking wet every morning certainly reminds me of my childhood.

The TRUTH according to Me.

We are each individuals in our own universe. Yet there are many emotions we all share. And yes, diapers do take me back to that special time in my life. I have to wonder though if the desire to reconnect to those formative years is universal to virtually all people. I suspect that ABDLs' have just pushed the boundaries a bit further. It isn't unusual to see someone in a public environment (especially under the influence ha ha) to be acting in an inappropriate manner. If you analyzed it, you would consider it "childish". I can't tell you how many times I have made people uncomfortable with my "inappropriate behavior" that isn't related to being ABDL. I'm just a little less constrained by society than most. It brings me great joy. I've also had the effect of enabling others become "inappropriate". To the point that they are embarrassed about it later on. Interestingly those witnessing it in a group happily remember the time and love the person who let go even more.

We as ABDLs' for some reason have just allowed ourselves to pursue the dream deeper than what restricts most others. The societal boundaries silently created have restricted access to these years by unspoken rules that no one could actually define. As I explored my diaper desires in the years after potty training I found the deeper I went into the lost times of infancy the more rewarding the experience was. Of course this was spoiled in a large part by those boundaries set up by society, Would I love to just run around in my diapers and rubber pants in main stream America? You bet. Would I end up in DEEP trouble? Absolutely. I also respect the sensibilities of others to a large extent. I have to say at this point that all this has NOTHING to do with pedophilia. I think ABDLs being children at heart ourselves makes the idea of harming children even more repulsive than it would be to mainstream people.

I still recall the times when I was stricken with puberty when each adventure deeper into the world of diapers was rewarded with an new mind shattering experience. Creating a huge desire to explore even deeper. Some would call this addiction. Well, OK so what. I have always performed the duties and responsibilities of a fine upstanding citizen. So let me enjoy my life of those long gone years. For the rest? Carry on. Your fear of offending your boundaries have cut you off from some of the most enjoyable experiences you could ever have.

Only the issues holding it, some times when I change I'm reminded of those feelings of feeling helplessness

I very much agree with what Metoo said, below. Especially his description of exploring the world of diapers during puberty. That could have been ME talking!

But in addition to that, I should add that diapers appeal to me on so many different levels. There's the sexual fetish level (I love looking at my diapers and plastic pants, looking at me in them, touching them, feeling them against me, wetting / loading them, smelling them, etc).

Then there's the "escape from the rigors and responsibilities of the adult world" aspect. Adults have so many responsibilities and issues to deal with and sometimes it can be stressful. But wearing diapers is the perfect way to escape from this and abandon all responsibility--even the responsibility of getting up to go use the toilet. So in that regard it does remind me of my childhood where others took care of me, fed me, gave me a place to live, etc, and all I had to do was wake up every day and enjoy life.

I think many of us don't want to leave this time of joy and comfort by having to grow up--the "Peter Pan" syndrome--and the first thing your parents do to start you down the path to adulthood is tell you "OK it's time for you to be a big boy/girl now" and take away your diapers. I know that mine certainly did and I was so young that I don't even remember it. And I'm certain that this is much of why I was always fascinated with and envious of all the other kids and their younger siblings who were still in diapers when I was a kid, and why I developed such a love for and sexual attraction to them that I still have today.

So yes I do think that wearing diapers is a way to return to this joyful time in life. And I think the reason I love the humiliation aspect of it is, that's my way of expressing that I know this isn't "socially acceptable" but I love it and I'm going to do it anyway and I don't care what anybody thinks!

One more thing that I'll add--in a few weeks I'm going to have a few days all alone in the house, which will include lots of diaper fun. It will be one of those rare times when I can get them all out, stack them up on the dresser, put my diaper pail next to my bed and go around wearing diapers and baby clothes for a few days of fun and stress relief. And with this in mind, I just ordered a toy on Ebay--a Kenner building set from 1961--which was my favorite toy when I was three years old--and I'm looking forward to spending a few hours sitting here playing with it while wearing my diapers. Should be fun!

Diaper Pail Pat, The Kenner building set. Boy did that wake a memory. I had a couple of those. I was never great at putting things away (still not). So it didn't take long before the building set didn't perform very well. When I read your post, the first thing I knew I was I was thinking girder and panel. So I had to go check it out on the web. Sure enough there they were. The little red girders that snapped together. The panels always seemed to be a pain in the ass for me. Putting them on always seemed to not be worth the effort. So I ended up building great big skeletons waiting for panels. lol.

I also had the classic Lincoln Logs, American Bricks (the Legos of my day) and two Erector sets. They were all a blast. I remember not being so interested in building the suggested projects -waayyy to much effort. Rather I would repurpose everything to suit my not so constrained ideas. I once repurposed the erector motor to launch a model airplane propeller. Geeze that was a blast. As an aside - When Elon Musk launched a Tesla Roadster into solar orbit the other day, He renewed my belief in mankind. Now there's a kid that never grew up!

Today I like to play with the giant Legos made for little kids. I really enjoy the size and bright colors. They turn into these large sized structures in a hurry. I have two of giant sized tubs of them. This size thing adds to the abandonment of all the adult restraints that normally consume me, When I break em' out I really enjoy the sense of peace that comes with mindlessly playing. I just let all concerns fall away and let the pieces do their thing. My diapers and rubber pants on display surrounded by all those colored pieces. Sitting there playing and suddenly feeling my diaper get wet. I look down from my project and see that warm yellow stain growing in the front of my diaper and smile thinking how naughty I am and love the overwhelming sense of freedom. It really takes me back to a time of innocence.

Thanks for jogging those memories Pat. Maybe you can start a thread. I'd love to hear other members sound off on this topic.

Glad I was able to jog those memories (about the only jogging I can do these days...ha).

Yes it was the Girder & Panel sets. Honestly, by the time I had them, I'd been out of diapers for 2-3 years, but still building things with them is one of the earliest clear and vivid memories that I have. (And no I didn't much like the panels either, I just built towers with the girders).

And I also had an Erector Set and Lincoln Logs. Yeah it seems like these things only lasted a while, then we'd lost enough of the parts that you couldn't hardly build anything with them.

Also my mother--the clean freak**--did her "spring cleaning" every year and threw out tons of my old stuff. (I'm positive that if I still had the Beatles / Football / Baseball cards I used to own, they'd be worth thousands of dollars. But no, she made me get rid of this stuff during "Spring Cleaning". Argg.)

**And if you read my other posts, then you know that my mother being a "clean freak" and a "germ freak" is why--I believe--she made me give up my precious diapers way before I wanted to, and that's probably why I still love them so much.

Yeah, go open a thread if you want, I'd bet lots of people would enjoy discussing their favorite old toys / stuff from childhood.

Another fan here of Girder and Panel building sets. Also had Lincoln logs and Erector sets. Maybe that was a prerequisite of being a diaper boy. Always became annoyed when the tiny ends of the cross beam girders would brake off. Diminishing the amount of building materials. Can't remember what happened to that set or many of the other sets I had. Although I do have some of my toy trucks and assorted other toys from 50+ years ago. Maybe next Christmas I will do a reenactment of Christmas' past.

Be under the tree opening presents still in my night diapers. I will get out my old trucks and be 6 again. Amazing all this time has past and only the size and hair color has changed. Still in or should I say again in night diapers and plastic pants under my PJ's.

Well I guess it not really the same cause then I hated wetting the bed and wearing diapers. Now I kinda like it. HO HO HO!

Yeah, I had all of that stuff, too. Girder & Panel sets, Erector sets, Lincoln Logs...anything you could build things with and I honestly think that having toys like these really helped lots of people develop their imaginations.

I also had a Mattel Vacuform (you'd put the little sheet of plastic in it, heat it up, then use it to make things using little molds. And that sort of led to the series of "Thingmaker" toys that they later sold. The first one was "Creepy Crawlers". You got these bottles of stuff called "Plastigoop" which came in various colors, put that into the molds, then "cooked" them on a little "stove" until the goop became more clear, then you put the mold in a bowl of water to quickly cool it, then you peeled out the thing that you made (with Creepy Crawlers it was all sorts of fake bugs that you'd then put all over the house to drive your mother crazy). Later they did "Creeple People" and "Mini-Dragons" and several others.

You know, looking back at all this stuff, I doubt that any of it would be sold today because of all the small parts (in the Girder & Panel sets / Erector sets) that little kids could (and probably did) swallow, or the ones that required heating things (the Thingmakers and the Vacuform) because of the possibility that if you left them on they may start a fire. Amazing that we had all of these great toys and didn't all die. Ha.

YESS!! The Vac u Form! I loved the little airplanes. I must have made a thousand. It took a little practice to get everything right but when you did it was like magic to see the plastic sheet transform into a nifty little airplane. That toy would have to sell for 100$ today. It was quite a cool little unit.

Only in the fact I liked nappies and baby pants before my injury. So now I have the excuse for wearing them and anyone who asks I can tell them with no red face .
