Terry, I'm 17 will be 18 in September and just like yourself, I too wear diapers to bed each and every night. My situation is alittle different from you, as I have to wear them day in and day out. I was born with an underdeveloped bladder which never grew or strenghten. There were numerous surgeries, but still I have to wear diapers as a means to keep my pants dry. I'm normal in very other way, but the only diffence between most guys and myself, is that I have to wear a diaper. I've gotten use to wearing them, but really don't like having them on. I know I have to in order to keep dry, but it's still hard being 17 almost 18 and still wearing diapers. All my friends accept me for who I am, not my disability or something I can't control. Dating though is another matter. It's hard to date, when I'm wearing a diaper. How many of you would date a guy still in diapers...not many I would think. Life as dealt me with this problem and I accept this for what it is and learn to live with it. If I enter college wearing diapers, so what. I hope I have helped you in some way of another. Keep up the courage and strength, no matter if you have to wear diapers at night or even during the daytime, like me.
