Adult Bedwetting Community Group
A place for adults who still have problems wetting the bed to talk about their feelings, to discover solutions, and to talk about life in general.
Im 29 and have basically been wearing pull-ups during the day for as long as I can remember, as well as setting an hourly bathroom timer. I had to switch to NorthShore Supreme tape-on diapers for nighttime in high school, due to the GoodNites leaking. (Im too small for Depends, so I'm embarrassed to admit it.)
Am I the only one who has always had to wear extra protection (my nighttime diapers instead of just my GoodNites) on roadtrips due to overactive bladder and bowels, or the possibility that I likely fall asleep and have an accident? Its embarrassing.
Thanks everyone.

For me I have found the Tena Slip Active Maxi the best. Better safe than sorry! Don’t be embarrassed. I used to be really worried at airports when flying as I always had spare nappies in my hand luggage. Changing a wet nappy on a plane is not easy so I always check how wet I am before boarding and change into a dry nappy if necessary. I have no feeling of urinating.

Both my anus and my urethra have been left closed except with manual intervention. I hardly ever pass urine via the usual route (I have a suprapubic catheter passing directly into my bladder about 2 inches below my...
