Hi I am IC (nurogenic bladder), my question is,,, Because I feel secure/safe wearing a disposable brief does that make me a DL? seems that's a very thin line to walk.
I wear disposable diapers to control my incontinence and that doesn’t mean I’m a DL, I even have ventured into some prints in that I like a different look than the boring hohum white diapers and if that makes me a DL than I’m totally fine with that. Diapers allow me to live a confident life I don’t wear because I love them I wear out of need and like something different than a plain white diaper all the timeHappyCamper said:Hi I am IC (nurogenic bladder), my question is,,, Because I feel secure/safe wearing a disposable brief does that make me a DL? seems that's a very thin line to walk.

Feeling secure is a good thing, especially when one is dealing with a neurogenic bladder.
That is also what I wear,,, BetterDry, Thanks your opinion means alot.Babykisakitten said:I have neurogenic Bladder from spinal arthritis as well, having a secure feeling is paramount I Wear 24/7 don't feel like Peeing myself I Wear out of medical need I wear plain white BetterDry.
Even sexual stuff aside, from my perspective, it doesn't sound like it.HappyCamper said:Hi I am IC (nurogenic bladder), my question is,,, Because I feel secure/safe wearing a disposable brief does that make me a DL? seems that's a very thin line to walk.
Thank you for your input...Bearcatz said:Even sexual stuff aside, from my perspective, it doesn't sound like it.
I get feelings of safety and security too, but it's satisfying some obsession in my head, not really any physical need.
Prefer the plastic back because I have yet to find a cloth back that stays tight on a active person. That and when they loosen they always leak and the backing gets wet and I end up with a rash inside my legs from it rubbing. But I also do like the softness of the plastic too. I don't hear well enough to worry about a crinkle. LOLPino said:Perhaps this kind of thought may happen to many U-IC folks, i personally realized that i do prefer the plastic back diapers, because i like the crinkle and feeling somehow. I feel ashamed about it a little, but i think it is just some memories deep down, i am a seventies child and my mother was "very modern" and used the new disposable Pampers back in the days.
I would not call myself a DL because of it, even i got used to them very fast.
Fact is, the diapers took and take stress from me. This is something a lot of DL say about them either, i think.
I also have some ibs problems and diapers are a saver.blissfullyquirky said:I’m not IC, but I suffer from IBS, and I often wear diapers just for my peace of mind. Years ago, I used public transportation to work, and I was stuck without a toilet for more than an hour some days. Sometimes I panicked all the way home that I was going to have an accident. It was once so bad that I couldn't get home in time and I actually pooped my pants as I opened the front door. After that, I started putting on diapers in the bathroom at work for the way home. It was very nice to be able to enjoy the journey home without worrying about messing myself.
I don't commute anymore, but I still wear diapers when my IBS is bothering me and I have to leave the house and I won't have easy access to a toilet. I've only had a few IBS accidents in my diapers, but it's not a big deal because diapers are for that. Even though it’s been a rare occurrence, I’d rather wear a diaper than obsess about what might happen.
I don’t think liking diapers because they make you feel safe and secure automatically makes you a DL. When I wear diapers for that reason it’s a different feeling than when I wear them for fun.
