Hi everyone (and sorry for the mistakes, my english isn't perfect),
I have a quite specific and embarrassing question...
A few years ago, I began experiencing some extreme overactive bladder because of an immune disease. At the time, I had a hard time dealing with it, but the problem resolved itself after a few months. Unfortunately, for a few months now it has become unmanageable again despite numerous attempts at treatment (physiotherapy, botox injections, oxybutynin, etc.).
Currently, I have very sudden "urges" several times a day. And from the moment I feel that emergency, I have to find a toilet in less than 2 minutes. I'm 28yo, I'm usually pretty social and this situation is depressing me completely. Two months ago, I started wearing pads every time I have to go out...but it makes me extremely paranoid that anyone will notice. Because given the severity of my problem, only tape-on underwear work (not to say diapers).
I'm at the point where I'm trying to accept my condition, and I'm starting to leave my house again. But my problem is that I can't let the panic get the better of me when my bladder betrays me in front of other people. Of course, even though I have a hard time with wearing diapers, it at least guarantees that "it won't show when I have an accident." But I'm always in a complete panic when I start to feel an urge without a toilet nearby.
Yesterday for example, I was in a shopping mall with 2 friends and I barely had the time to run to the nearest bathroom..but it was closed. So I ended up in tears because having an accident (even if invisible) in front of them made me feel miserable.
I find it really frustrating because wearing diapers is humiliating enough and I can't "make the most of it" knowing that it should at least keep me calm in case of problems. In short, every time the symptoms come, I'm way too self-conscious about what happens.
Do you have some tips to manage this panic feeling during (or right before) accidents? Thanks in advance for your help, really
