i will always be grateful to this site for helping me through those times, the incontinence part of my life was really rough and it still is difficult to deal with but the people here were so nice, understanding and helped me immensely.

Hi guys, I am back on here after a long time and its been a rough couple of years. A lot of things have changed for me as a quad amputee with incontinence. A lot of my perspective has changed as well about incontinence and this community. I have found other communities more inline with helping...

I manage the pain pretty well these days but there are times when things are not going well for me and you get to not such a nice place. But I try to deal with it best I can.

Yes, getting used to someone having to be there all the time is really frustrating sometimes and emotionally it has been really damn difficult. It takes time I guess. But being with people helps a lot. The phantom pain is a problem sometimes. I get it randomly and it's pretty bad sometimes but...

Yes, changing isn't something I can do at all. Unfortunately for above elbow prosthesis there's not much I can do. I can write a little and hold things and stuff but nothing complicated. Things like doing my hair and getting changed, can't really do. There are computerized ones but they are slow...

Thanks guys, I'm doing pretty well. I've bean navigating on how to deal with certain things since my last post and it hasn't been fun, but I've found time to be content I guess? A lot has happened since my last post but in general I'm doing a lot better. If you guys have any questions feel...

Hi everyone. After a long time I'm able to post here. I'm still figuring out how to do a lot of things but I finally have managed to find the time to post here. For the people who know me it's coming up on an year since my last surgery and with regards to prosthesis I've improved a lot, also...

So hello everybody Today was a pretty unsettling day as the titles suggests my incontinence acted up really badly and this was the first time I could do nothing to deal with it I have to say both my bowels and bladder acted up really badly today but it was one of my least stressful times since I...

Yes my neighbour had it recently too Hell of a bother though Everything feels clogged up and the coughing makes it harder to sleep I swear my voice got deeper But I feel a lot better so hopefully I won't have to deal with it much longer There's never been a shortage of inspiration for me I...

It's actually not that bad but I have the same thought But I probably over did physiotherapy and sort of met the limits of my stamina I guess I have lost a lot of my strength and stamina after being idle for so long Will have to slowly build that up

Thank you everyone for all the positive notes Dealing with reality can be challenging Maxx your second note to yourself is something I stryggled to keep up just to move on from the depressed stage to actually wanting to do better for yourself Unfortunately I have come down with a flu but...

Hello everyone it has been a while A lot has happened the last month or so So around last month my appendix ruptured and I honestly thought it wasn't a big deal But as usual things went to shit and even though I went to the hospital as fast as possible and went into surgery allowing very little...

I've been fully bladder and bowel incontinent​ for some time. Have been managing it okay..... There are good days and bad, but I've managed to power through it

It can be hard sometimes, some days worse than others. Once I got used to it it came to a point where I don't worry about it at all until I do have an accident. And as I said since days are particularly bad, especially with the bowel accidents mixed with a bladder accidents it's hard to keep...

Yeah, it's just an upsetting realization, plus when there are problems after problems it gets you down fast......
