I'm complete IC since I was a very young child. I was never been able to potty train. And I wear diapers ever since. I don't know anything else. Of course it's been
difficult but I do know it's been a normal thing for me. I've always been in diapers. Growing up as a kid my mom was always changing my diapers. Even as I got older. I've been changed for one of my sister, babysitters and teacher aides. I finally became independent enough to change myself. When I was young I knew i was diapered while other friends and students didn't wear diapers like me. I was frustrated and confused. I think I was around 8 or 9 when I heard a doctor tell my mom that they just didn't know why I was IC but they did suspect. I didn't understand it until I got older. They called it idiopathic IC. Which means it is "unknown." When I went to the doctors I would ask why I had to wear diapers. Why was I always wetting and messing my diapers. They never answered my questions. They just said that IC was complicated. By the time I was jr. high school I became mostly introverted. And I still am. I do have a few friends, my family and I do have a girlfriend.
Being IC is really a struggle. Life is what it is. Whether I know why or not knowing is frustrating. I know it won't change anything. I do know that I'm not alone. Are you idiopathic IC too? .
