Bedwetters..?
Posted: Wed Jan 24, 2007 5:18 pm
How many people were bedwetters when they were younger? How do you think it changed your life if any?
I ask this because I was a bedwetter until the age of 14 and this had quite an impact on my life and I am sure also helped trigger my interest in diapers. Strangely enough i ws never made to wear diapers for my bedwetting; looking back i now wish i got to.. LOL.
My parents were very caring and supportive and tried not to make a big deal out of it, but it still affected my personal life then since I felt like the only kid in the world who was a bedwetter since it was something that no one spoke about back then. It also affected my social life as a child; I didnt go to sleep-overs and as a result became rather isolated socially (even though i am much more sociable now I still tend to keep myself apart from most people since I enjoy spending time bymyself now).
I suppose the mix of going through puberty and bedwetting at the same time naturally led to my curiousity in diapers and the fixation that followed. I still havent really figured that part out yet, although i do remember being drawn to them at an early age too.
I still remmber all the different things my parents and I tried to stop my bedwetting.. from limiting drinks before bed (btw this is pointless and only tends to dehydrate kids) to those alarms pads that if they sense moisture emite a large siren like noise. These were most annoying and also useless in my opinion. Since I was a heavy sleeper and also slept very warm, the smallest bit of persperation would set it off. the result being no one got any sleep due to the siren always going off... LOL. The last thing we tried which may have worked (or it could have be I had just finally reached an age that i grew out of it) happened to be medication prescribed by a doctor. I remeber the pills were a bright blue and tiny. I cant remeber the name of them but in my opinion again.. I wouldn't use them; I still wonder what other side effects they have/had on me.
well that is a bit of background on me.. so anyone else suffered from bedwetting.. or have a sibling who did? Just curious.
