So tired of nappies being treated as the last, shameful solution.

I‘ve seen this with people immediately trying to come up with alternatives when I tell them about my incontinence, even though I keep telling them I’ve tried everything. I also hear people in my support group talk about how they try and fail over and over to use anything but a nappy to control their incontinence because they’ve been taught that a nappy is embarrassing.

Like, nappies are the best solution, they’re the first option in my mind. No other option has ever worked as well for me, yet I continuously see encouragement to try the more inefficient solutions to save the apparent indignity of needing nappies. I‘ll wear absorbent underwear if it helps, it shouldn’t even be a big deal to anyone.
