Coping methods - Nappies

Deleted user
over 10 years ago

Hello, I have been having some issues recently and was hoping some of you may be able to help?

Please understand I am not trolling, this is genuine.

I have ASD and one of my coping methods is to wear nappies and use baby stuff. It helps me to feel safe. Currently I wear drynites every night and sometimes in the day. However they fall apart so I probably need to look for a different type. However I find adult nappies very intimaditing, I have tried putting stickers on them to make them look better but it makes them uncomfortable.

Does anyone know of any colourful adult nappies? Preferable cloth backed so they are breathable?

Also I use a dummy and was wondering if it is worth getting one designed for an adult?

Same with a changing mat?

Cheers

    It is something that arises from having that diagnosis (though with or without it would still be there) It is not a fetish. I think that it is because they almost let me feel that I don't have to me grown up all the time and allow me to think of times when things were much easier. For me it is a coping mechanism that I have developed that stops me getting so overwhelmed and acting out.
