Zombie_Turtle Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Just a question about something I still struggle with. Wondering how folks in the group deal mentally if they have an accident while in public, at work, or around others. Seems like folks here have a range of attitudes towards things like this, just wondering how you react to situations like this and if anyone wants to share feelings about it. For me I feel something between apathy, embarrassment, and failure. It used to ruin my entire day and make me depressed. I would just want to go home, crawl into bed, and hide from the world. I don't feel as bad as I used to about it, but it is still one of the things I dread the most. It's a similar feeling when I have a bad leak in my bed. It feels like I failed at something.

Iken Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Not me and I am not ashamed if I leak in my diaper. If I leak in my diaper, it means I used them very well and I should consider getting thicker diapers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombie_Turtle Posted May 21 Author Share Posted May 21 Quote Rarely leak in public, but absolutely hate it. Same with me. I have (mostly) figured out my needs and my timing on changes, but every now and then I get thrown for a loop and then it's just the worst.

John Davis Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I am a heavy wetter and pee in my diaper in public frequently, but rarely have a leak. I wear a premium diaper with a booster pad, a thin cloth pullup, and a diaper cover. I know my capacity and time my changes. I have not had a leak onto my outer clothing in about three years.🙂 --John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slomo Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Same here. I rarely leak in public too. Though when it does happen it's just an annoyance to me. But that's because I also wear a PUL diaper cover to contain any leaks, which help me notice it before the leak becomes outwardly noticeable. It's just a matter of stopping what I'm doing, removing the diaper cover, and changing my diaper. Before I started using Betterdry/Crinklz, and before I used a good diaper cover, leaks were usually bad and happened at least once a week for me. Which was with using Abena L4 (the best on the market at the time), and I hated it. Those leaks were always noticeable and required a change of pants. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
