Would you like to wear diapers for medical reasons?

How many of you would like to wear diapers for medical reasons?

I mean, most of people wears diapers because we love them, but I think there are some of them who would like to get a medical reason to wear them always,

Well, I did wear them for medical reasons for about three years due to a side effect from diabetes. I'm all better now but let me tell you it sucked to not have control over your bladder. I had no choice of if I wanted to wear or not.

It was life and they were my underwear. But talk about embarrassing times. You going to bar one time and someone who's drunk grab you and find out your in a diaper. It happened to me once and it sucked. I felt sick to my stomach. I had to explain why I'm wearing a diaper to a complete stranger. She was cool with it but it still sucked bad.

This falls into the "be careful what you wish for" category.

I enjoy wearing a diaper because I want to. I think it would lose some of it's appeal if I had to wear one.

As it is now, if I'm going somewhere where having to change in a public restroom for example might be needed, I simply don't wear one.

On the other hand, people who have to wear for a medical need don't have that choice. They have to find a way to carry spares, change in less than ideal conditions, and always have to worry about leaks showing through clothing.They also have the problem of damaging a car seat or furniture if a leak happens at the wrong time. There is a lot more to it than simply putting on a diaper and forgetting about it.

I have bladder problems and can rarely choose when to wear a diaper. Most of the time this is not too bad as the newer adult diapers are much better and more comfortable and obviously I wear for enjoyment too, but there are times when it is horrible and I would give anything not to have to wear them. So yeah, the novelty is fun, but it soon wears off and it is sure nice to be able to take it off when you want to.

My thoughts go with those who have to wear for medical reasons, as it is not what many think it is. I agree entirely with hagar here - be careful what you wish for! As nappy-jon says, the novelty soon wears off...

I tried going 24/7 for a while - lasted about 3 weeks. 😮 By the end I was glad I had the choice and could say 'No'!

Keep it special and be thankful you have the choice! 😃

I agree djenn. if you dont have a problem just pretend you do its alot better to pretend then to deal witha medical problem that makes you need them. why be sick and in diapers if you can be healthy and in them instead?

I like diapers as a fetish, but I don't want to lost control of my bodily functions.

I don't have a medical problem but I do wear 24/7. I think for anyone who has thought about it I would also say be careful what you wish for.. but I think that if you sit down and spend some time taking into account just exactly what you are in for you can get a pretty good idea of how you might need to change your daily routine to fit diapers in.

Yes wearing and using diapers does require more work than wearing underwear and using a toilet but one can easily allow this to become normal and not an annoyance in their lives if they know what to expect and accept that. having to change in less than ideal conditions sucks but in my opinion that's allot better than having to use a questionable toilet wouldn't you agree? there are of course some things to consider.

1. Cost

If you don't have a medical problem and/or no insurance to help cover the cost diapers can get expensive. this should be something that you should figure out well before hand. can I afford it? how much should I budget?

2. Diapers on the go

One of the biggest things other than cost to consider is how do you carry around with you all of the things you will need. for myself, im an amateur photographer and I carry a camera bag with camera(s) and lenses with me everywhere. it also holds up to 4 diapers, a small bottle of powder, a travel package of wipes and cleanser, and just in case a small tube of diaper rash cream. this sounds like allot but I have gotten used to carrying around my equipment with me. my bag isn't that big and normally only carries one body and 2 or 3 small prime lenses so there is adequate room for my diapers without it weighing me down. its kind of like carrying a purse around. =) so you could also use a messenger bag or your purse but this is definitely something you need to take into account. because you don't want to be without a change. this is a big deal and should be thought about very well. do I really want to carry all of that around with me? how will I while being discreet? if you work at a place that has employee break rooms and lockers or such for individual employees this can be a great place to keep spare diapers and essentials so that you don't have to carry so much all the time. this is another aspect you should consider.

3. Uh oh

Leaks happen from time to time, for me normally from pressure ie: sitting down with a full or nearly full diaper which causes leaks on your butt. for this aspect you really need to take into account how many diapers you might use a day and what kind of diapers work best for you. the best way to avoid leaks is to change often (wearing a less absorbent diaper helps establish this routine) but will lead to using more diapers and having to find a suitable place to change (public restroom). on the other hand you could wear a much more absorbent diaper which will allow you to wear longer (avoiding the frequent changes) but could cause more leaks because you aren't thinking as much about your diaper. with either situation a pair of plastic pants could be a good suggestion but this will add another layer and during the summer it can be hot enough with just a diaper. I think that limiting your clothing choices to help be discreet is going to far, by following my suggestions you shouldn't have to worry about what you can and cant wear everyday just because you are wearing a diaper. especially if you are into fashion and want to wear the latest stylish clothing.

4a. Being discreet.

Are you worried about other people knowing you wear diapers? well this is something you should think about. i would tell you that it really inst a big deal unless you are purposely trying to show your diaper in some way, because people could care less what the person next to them is wearing and will just assume (without thinking about it) that you are wearing underwear like everyone else. so getting it out of your mind that wearing a diaper somehow targets you will be a good start in easing your unrest. as long as you are not wearing a diaper so thick that it becomes uncomfortable and inhibits natural movement you are just like everyone else, in fact the person next to you could be wearing a diaper as well and you might not even know.

4b. Being discreet

Another aspect to this is smell. I know the poo smell is a big deal and allot of people here say you shouldn't poo your diaper to spare other people the smell, but I say if you have to go, then go. you should however keep in mind that every time you poo you must change, and quickly. your diet can have a very big impact on the smell of your poo and if you eat a healthy and balanced diet and move your bowels often the smell really wont be that bad, if yours is however you should probably address this before going 24/7. pee can also have a smell especially after prolonged wear of one diaper. this can easily be solved by two things. 1. don't wear your diapers for such an extended time and 2. cleaning that area very good during changes. I suggest a cleanser such as Hollister Skin Cleanser or another that are 'no rinse' cleansers. keeping your pubic hair short (not necessarily shaved) will also help with this concern.

5. Is this what you want?

You must really decide for yourself what aspect about diapers keeps you wearing them and will going 24/7 null that.

This is where the 'medical need' comes into play because it decides for you so to speak. you should however keep in mind that there is a big difference between want and need and this can have a big impact on how you perceive and enjoy diapers. my joy from diapers comes from wearing and using them as they were intended. yours may not and trying to go 24/7 could easily become an annoyance. you need to decide before hand what exactly about diapers keeps you interested in wearing them and how will this translate into what will become a new lifestyle. because this will be a lifestyle change, maybe more for some than others but a change none the less. wanting a medical problem to decide for you could bring on so many unforeseen consequences that it likely wouldn't be worth it. you should ponder for a long while on what it really means to go 24/7, this should allow you to decide right from the get go if this is what you really want, what you might just like to try for a brief time, or if this isn't what you really want. and remember a need (medical) changes the whole experience.

In the end the most important thing to remember is that this isn't just adding something to your life this is changing how you live your life everyday. that can be a big change.

My boy friend does wear. He is a life long bed-wetter and wear also on long car rides and when he cant find a bath room easily.

I wear because I have been a bed-wetter for 3 plus years now. I still wet most night before I go to sleep and if I wake up I wet. I don't think about it a lot. I started to wear 24/7 lately because it is fun and make bus trips easier.

I have to were diapers 24/7 due to an accident when I was 20.

I guess that you could say Nocturnal Enuresis is a medical condition. Its actually bed wetting or how it is politically correct referred to as sleep wetting. That is why I wear diapers at night.

Sometime i wish i was wearing 24/7, especially when driving, being medically bond to diapers would give alittle ease to people whio found out, because its a medical condition and not the fact that they think your weird, but i would really want to wear 24/7 anyway for that reason, it would take the fun away from wearing them.

I dont want to belittle it because it is terrible for them but i thin it would be nice i wouldnt have to sneak around and hide it not having a reason for them makes it difficult

I do wear my diapers for medical reasons, like mamasboy, I have had diabetes for over 35 years and have nerve damage. However, I LOVE wearing diapers. They make me feel very comfortable, secure and confident. I love wearing the plastic panties also. 😁

Idk, Most of the time it seems like a good idea...

But, then im at school and work, or having to wake up early and go to either, and i thank god im not...thats got to be the biggest pain...

I think id settle for my own place so i could wear 24/7 but without the medical need...

I would NEVER wish anyone to wear diapers for a medical condition. It is one thing to do it for fun. It is something else to HAVE to wear them. That kind of takes all the joy out of it.

I teach students with learning disabilities. I had a student who does not have a learning disability ask what it takes to get a learning disability, because he likes the help (I give him the help anyway, but). One student looked at him and said, "You have no idea what it is like. Don't wish for something like that."

Wishing for incontinence is a similiar issue.

I do wear disposable diapers 24/7 for medical reasons, I probably wouldn't if I didn't. I now enjoy wearing them, although the money I spend now on diapers and supplies would come in handy for something else.

I didn't need to, then I untrained, so now I do need to.

It's certainly not all it's cracked up to be and I wouldn't recommend it - because even slightly different people may feel completely differently about what they ended up with.

That said, life is pretty good to me in general.

Be careful what you wish for. I had to wear after prostate surgery.

Not knowing much about diapers I only bought depends pull ups. If I had to change at work it was a problem. You can take them off but can't put them on if you are wearing pants. I am a DL now but would never want to go back to being totally incontinent.

I do started wetting myself and bed so my wife put me back in diapers and pants.This all due to medical reason being a diabetic and prostate problems.

From a young age around 10 I wore just for fun . Then in 2006 my spine was ripped apart. So from then on I had no choice but to be in a diaper , nappy of some kind . Strange thing is it never quite felt like the ones I used to wear for fun.

I have always been quick to adapt and to accept the inevitable, regardless of what fate lies in store. The moment my urologist informed me I had a malignant prostate tumor (cancer) in late '00, I felt happy, knowing surgery would be followed by a dependency on diapers. The surgery was a "piece of cake," painless and fast healing. In fact, the medical staff was upset, because I'd found it unnecessary to use the self-administered opiate available in my IV (they wanted funding for more units). Always having been unsuccessful at using diapers in public without the risk of leaks, once they became a necessity, it was a pleasure to explore my new dependency and to become successful in overcoming earlier setbacks. Seventeen years later, it remains an ongoing pleasure to wear diapers whenever I want, at home or in public.

Wearing and using diapers 24/7/365 does have an impact on everything in ones life. But once I figured out what worked for me and what didn't, it quickly became easy to adjust to being back in diapers, this time for good.

After trying various "magic" medication my doctor suggested and an operation which were supposed to help with my urinary problems, which it didn't. I gave up and began wearing diapers because they provided me with a solution to my problem without introducing unpleasant side effects. But being in diapers also meant I became more lazy, now that I knew I didn't have to worry anymore, so I more or less began to just use my diaper when an urge struck. And because of that I have weakened my sphincter so I now also dribble a lot in my diaper, meaning I have now become completely diaper dependent.

As a result of this dependence which I now have no problems with, in fact it has meant that I now love being in diapers all the time, and because of that have begun to also use my diaper for pooping. In fact it is such a stress relief to just relax and fill my diaper when a need to arises.

I don't think I'd enjoy them as much if I HAD to wear them. For me part of the fun is doing it because I WANT to. But I still go in cycles with it. I'll have a few days of diaper fun then usually put them away for a little while--a mild version of the "Binge & Purge" I think (though I no longer get rid of my precious diapers, plastic pants and baby clothes, now I just put them away for a few days until I want them again).

But if I HAD to always wear them I'm not sure I'd still love it as much. I probably would become used to it and find it to be very comforting, as many others here describe, but the of "I'm going to wear diapers and wet them and load them like a naughty two-year-old" sexual kink / fetish aspect of it may not be as strong as it is now.

I wear them because flat out need them I am completely incontinent, but I reserve the right to enjoy them and try different diapers my goal to spice up my life is try every diaper for a day.

I don't see how people can wear 1 or 2 diapers and form an opinion, I wear them for 6 changes, I don't typically test them overnight because all disposables are a compromise. I wear high security triple boosted cloth prefold, I have sleep disorders and take a lot of medication and can be awake a week at a time or I can sleep 14-16+ hours for the night .most people don't put out much urine during the overnight because we taper our input, due to other conditions I need to drink a ton, so my diaper better be prepared also if I am going to have fecal problem it's going to over night because "normal" for me 10PM- 1AM so sometimes there's a surprise for my aide . Any way I don't need an excuse to wear, and I am not embarrassed by my need and will educate people about it ask and ye shall learn.

Take it or leave it. Due to a neurogenic bladder which requires me to wear a diaper while I sleep. I have had daytime issues and I do not like catheters. There are times where I do enjoy wearing diapers. I like the security and feel of wearing a diaper personally I prefer the plastic backed diapers they are much better at containment. Unfortunately my insurance only covers the inexpensive attends diapers. I will say I truly hate the color and they only work if I use a Doubler. Although it is a pain if I have to be more active because the absorbent material tends to Bunch up and they sag. While wearing diapers is not a sexual thing for me it is a necessary thing and as I stated before I could take it or leave it because they can be a pain in the butt literally when trying to sit after the diaper has bunched up. But if I had my choice I would prefer not to but I do not hate having to wear diapers. It is better than waking up in a wet bed or having wet pants.

I have been wearing nappies for medical reasons for 6 year now. I have become very much DL as a result.

I started wetting myself several yrs ago so not choice.

Simple answer... NO.

I wear diapers for leisure, pleasure and for practical reasons.

There are a lot of times when I am simply not in the mood for diapers. Being forced to wear them then, because I'd be incontinent would not be very fun.
