Just to answer the title as plainly as I can. No thank you
Except it isn't a bad habit, and what isn't broken, doesn't need fixing. I don't have the words to explain what the difference is between this, and an addiction, but the professionals who do care enough about us to actually know anyf%$*ingthing, all seem to agree, it isn't one. Doctor Rhoda, in particular, talked about how she always has to tell some partner in a tizzy, that this and addiction are different. I can imagine that gets annoying.PaddedInHaslet said:I’m not trying to judge anybody or say you have to, but if it’s possible to quit drinking, smoking, drugs or any bad habit, shouldn’t it be possible to quit wearing diapers?
You do have a point here... could you elaborate, please? Which alternatives have you found?Travis9800 said:& have since found less environmentally damaging ways of suppressing these urges.
If you don’t mind me asking, if you have given up diapers for good, why are you still here? Not trying to be a jerk. I’m legitimately curious as to why you would still want to be a part of the online community if you don’t participate anymore.Travis9800 said:I've done it, (Haven't bough any diapers sine Nov 2020 now Whoohoo!) but that is because I work in a sector where I am exposed to the affects of our Climate Crisis. I know people will hate hearing this, but for me personally I could not justify contributing to destroying my kids future just to satisfy my addiction that was a result of childhood trauma in the first place. I feel much better being in control & have since found less environmentally damaging ways of suppressing these urges.
You are too kind & I commend you ability to think beyond discomfort.DinoFran said:You do have a point here... could you elaborate, please? Which alternatives have you found?
Wow. I guess this traitor is not welcome around here anymore! How thoughtful of you!PaddedInHaslet said:If you don’t mind me asking, if you have given up diapers for good, why are you still here?

That’s not what I’m saying at all. I’m asking an actual question. If you have successfully weaned yourself from the abdl community, why would you still want to come to a website aimed at the community? Like why would a recovering alcoholic go to a bar? I’m not saying you aren’t welcomed here. I’m just saying I would think it would be easier to abstain from a prior “addiction” if you don’t surround yourself with it.Travis9800 said:Wow.

Are you calling me personally Toxic? Because someone asked me a question, I responded as detailed, honest, & comprehensive as I could. No need to name call or accuse me of Toxicity just because I do not happen to be a 100% replica of your perfect self! This is a forum where people can share their experiences. If my experiences offend you, there is nothing I can do. Sorry. Take care.LaPew said:For what it’s worth, I’m finding the content of this thread to be really toxic and I’m just so glad that I don’t share these toxic views on ABDL.
I would not single a person out with personal attacks. That would go against forum rules.Travis9800 said:Are you calling me personally Toxic?

For sure. I wore before I married, but while married, had no urge. After a divorce, it was a missed comfort.Markzfl said:I usually find my binge and purge cycle matches my stress/depression levels. If I wear while stressed or depressed it helps resolve or reduce the stress or depression. Anyone else have this?

I clarified this in my previous comment but I shall reiterate for the purpose of your inquisition. I am still ABDL, but have amended the behavior due to affects I see single-use plastics is having on their environment due to the work am in. I've got to the point where my needs are less important to me than the needs of the many.PaddedInHaslet said:That’s not what I’m saying at all. I’m asking an actual question.

Single-use plastics are a real problem. The solution to disposable diaper's environmental impact is obviously reusable cloth diapers or just not wearing diapers. However if you're ABDL and get pleasure, comfort, and satisfaction from using diapers then the obvious solution to fulfilling your desires without adding to the growing pollution and waste disposal problem is wearing cloth diapers - it's really that simple. No internal phycological turmoil needed.Travis9800 said:I clarified this in my previous comment but I shall reiterate for the purpose of your inquisition.

That's what I've heard other places. It's basically an addiction of sorts and if you want to really stop, you'd have to do the same sorts if things. People have done it, but they don't hang out around here once they do. It would be like a recovering alcoholic going to a bar.PaddedInHaslet said:I’m not trying to judge anybody or say you have to, but if it’s possible to quit drinking, smoking, drugs or any bad habit, shouldn’t it be possible to quit wearing diapers?
