Skip your protection? Not so fast.

I have urgent bladder incontinence, which is quite manageable at home and office. As long as I don't allow my bladder to get nearly full, I can safely get along just using a toilet. So for home and office, I get to sometimes thinking that I don't need my daily protection.

But that's when it strikes!

The following situations force me to "stay prepared":

• The usual [home] bathroom is occupied (for too long)
• You can't get to the toilet fast enough when doing yard work
• Someone drops by your backyard just when you think your bladder is "imminent" and you don't want to be rude and excuse yourself
• Someone keeps you on the phone a long time when the urge starts

And today, I added another reason:

• The drive thru service was so slow that the urge started just as you receive the order.

It's a reminder that accidents still happen and that yes, you still need that diaper. Perhaps there are other reasons that can be added to this list.

dunno bout others. but outside of a shower there is no non time. seems appropriate for you as well.

I tend to think of this as "accident prevention".

Away from home, shopping etc. is another matter entirely. That requires a better level of protection.

I, too, feel that while at home I really don't need to be diapered. In fact, I recently purchased some boxer briefs to wear when at home, and possibly for short trips to a store. I tried going unprotected to Walmart the other day, and no problems. However, I was very nervous. I'm not sure if I will be that brave, or stupid again.

On hot summer days I am tempted to wear just swim shorts around the house. The worst that could happen at home (with no company visiting) is that I wet my shorts on my way to the bathroom.

But Walmart? Oh no! I'd have to be out of protection first. I won't go out in public without some minimal protection.
