It's not uncommon for individuals on the autism spectrum to have sensory and processing differences that can make toileting difficult, leading to accidents and possible negative experiences. This can result in trauma associated with using the toilet or anxiety about accidents, particularly in situations where access to a bathroom may be limited, such as school or other public places.

It's also not uncommon for individuals who have experienced frequent soiling accidents in childhood to have a desire for sensory comfort, which can include the use of diapers or pull-ups. Sensory comfort can be important for individuals on the autism spectrum who may have sensory processing differences that can affect their ability to tolerate certain sensations.

If you feel that using diapers or pull-ups is providing you with the sensory comfort that you need, it may be a good option for you. However, it's important to ensure that you are practicing good hygiene to prevent skin irritation or infection. This includes changing your pull-up frequently, using wipes or mild soap and water, and using a barrier cream or powder can all help maintain good hygiene.

It's also important to remember that wearing diapers or pull-ups is a personal choice, and there is no shame in seeking sensory comfort in this way.

Shout out to autistics who:

Don't know much about their special interests

Likes food commonly disliked by other autistics

Dislikes food commonly liked by other autistics

Enjoy social settings

Use sign language as their primary form of communication

Use diapers or have troubles with toileting

Like childish things or age regress

Are unable to work

Are unable to figure out their gender

I've seen people doing "shout out to disabled people with gross traits", so I thought I would do my own, but with traits I've never seen discussed in these posts(an asterisk (this thing: *) after it means it’s something I expirence)

So, shout out to disabled people who:

—Can't always wash their hands after using the toilet. *

—Who wet/mess themselves in bed(and can't clean it up) because "I can't leave bed" means I can't leave bed.

—Who get nosebleeds because they pick their nose so much. *

—Who can take a bath/shower, put on deodorant, and put on freshly washed clothes and still smell 'bad'. *

—Who can't help but get food/drink/blood/snot/etc. on their books/comics/magazines when they try to read. *

—Who eat everything with their hands. *(I've eaten cereal and soup with mine on multiple occasions)

—Who have/have had moldy dishes/pop bottles/wrappers/food/etc in their room for weeks or months or years or longer. *(I just recently had help from a sibling to replace my broken furniture, clean up my space, and throw out trash. Before that I had moldy stuff in my room for up to 4 or 5 years for some of it.)

—Who have never had bed wetting problems, but do struggle to stay dry during the day. *(Bed wetting is valid too, of course, and so is doing both, I've just seen people talk about bed wetting, but not day wetting.)

—Who eat things(specifically non-food things)you know you shouldn't. *(I'll eat just about anything(just not most foods), but I'm big on styrofoam and old chipped paint from my walls)

—Who don't know/can't use "basic manners" *

—And a bunch of other stuff I can't think of right now(feel free to add more in comments/reblogs)

There is no shame here.

(TW FOR ABLEISM, MELTDOWNS, ETC.)

Supporting disabled people is more than just supporting us when you think its cute, easy, or beneficial for you.

If your support ends when you see an adult in public with a diaper bulge, you aren't supporting disabled people.

If your support ends when you see someone drooling, you aren't supporting disabled people.

If your support ends when someone has a violent meltdown in public, you aren't supporting disabled people.

If your support ends when someone needs help being fed, you aren't supporting disabled people.

Etc. Etc. Etc.

I know that you dont think its cute or aesthetically pleasing to try and calm me down and be understanding of me when I throw my communication device across the room and slam my head into the ground because someone laughed too loudly, I know that you think its embarrassing. I know you dont think it's all "uwu cute tism" when I can't shower for a week straight and spend the whole day crying, yelling, and biting myself, but if that makes you angry at me, you arent supporting disabled people.

What is your limit to supporting disabled people? What is your limit to being okay with the fact that I am NOT like your nondisabled friends?

Where does the support end and the disgust start? How long until we are "too disabled" for you?

finding diapers as a continent/semicontinent autistic

(This essay is not in Plain Language. Please tell me if you want a Plain Language version and I will write one.)

I was slow to toilet train: I routinely came home wet from kindergarten and was still wetting myself occasionally in third grade and later. This was mostly an executive function problem; I usually knew I had to pee, but didn't have the executive function to stop whatever I was doing to use the bathroom.

I didn't get much in the way of help for this: I was kicked out of diapers before entering kindergarten. In kindergarten and first grade, I was 'on a schedule', which meant staff would pull me out of class to take me to use the bathroom periodically, hopefully before I'd wet myself. As early as kindergarten, my parents yelled at me for wetting myself, and past first grade, yelling was all the help I got. No one suggested diapers as a way to avoid the shame and humiliation of accidents; it was apparently better for a third-grader to wet herself in front of her classmates than for her to wear diapers.

Eventually, like some autistics, I 'grew out' of it: I learned to absorb the executive function cost of interrupting myself to go pee, or the pain of holding it because I didn't want to interrupt myself, and I stopped wetting myself.

At some level, though, I always understood that diapers were something I needed: when I hit puberty, they became a fetish object; when I transitioned in my late twenties, they shifted to a non-sexual emotional comfort, and I started wearing them more often. As I worked through some of my childhood trauma in therapy, they shifted again, to a radical way of 'rewriting the story' for my younger self who'd needed them, and I started wearing them full-time.

(I want to stop here and acknowledge that I was privileged to be able to make this change in my life: I can afford to live by myself to avoid judgmental family or housemates, and I can afford to buy disposable diapers out of pocket. Many people can't, and I'd love to see diapers as a voluntary adaptation for autistics destigmatized and covered by insurance.)

Once I was wearing diapers full-time, something magical happened: my brain settled back into those same patterns from elementary school, using my diaper when I'm hyperfocused and using the toilet when I'm not. I find focused tasks easier and less stressful, since I don't have to interrupt myself to go use the bathroom in the moment or cope with the ongoing sensory and executive function cost of feeling and knowing that I have to go to the bathroom eventually. I don't worry about burning something on the stove, forgetting important context while programming, or losing the plot of a movie or TV show I wanted to watch. I can get what I wanted to get done more easily, and have more energy and cope left for other things.

Despite the obvious benefits, I still felt ashamed when I found myself wet after a period of hyperfocus; I wasn't 'supposed' to wet myself, and I wasn't 'supposed' to wear diapers.

A couple weeks ago, as part of a larger effort to find better accommodations for myself, I found @endeverstar's wonderful article "Finding AAC as a verbal/semiverbal autistic". It talks about how xe found speaking with mouth words difficult and stressful but was nonetheless forced into a bunch of speech therapy as a kid so xe could be considered "speaking"; nobody offered xem AAC as a kid because xe didn't 'need' it and it was stigmatized. Xe discovered AAC as an adult, quickly realized it was easier and less stressful than mouth words, and is at this point mostly-nonspeaking.

This was me, toilet training, and diapers. Everything suddenly made sense.

I found toileting without diapers as a backup difficult and stressful, but was nonetheless forced to so I could be considered "toilet trained"; nobody offered me diapers as a kid past the 'normal' age because I didn't 'need' them and they were stigmatized. I rediscovered diapers as an adult, realized they were easier and less stressful, and decided to wear them all the time.

Overnight, that last whiff of shame disappeared. Diapers aren't just a fetish object, an emotional comfort, or a way of 'rewriting' my trauma. Diapers are a valid adaptive choice for autistics, even those who are technically capable of always using the toilet!

So, to paraphrase endever*: if you're a continent or mostly-continent autistic person and you're wondering whether diapers might be useful for you -- consider this your permission slip! You're allowed to try them if you think they might help, and you're allowed to keep using them if you find them helpful. Toileting works for abled people, but isn't inherently superior; don't listen to anyone who says you're 'not allowed' to use diapers unless you 'need' them or that you should force yourself to always use the toilet if that doesn't work for you.

Everyone deserves access to the full range of communication methods that work for them, and likewise everyone deserves access to the full range of toileting strategies that work for them.

I really wish that diapers were more accepted/normalized and I felt safe wearing one, instead of having accidents and being super uncomfortable and embarrassed. I wish I had more family support family support with my needs that make me more visibly disabled. I wish being visibly disabled was safe.

Todays a bit of a messy day, these are diapers I like for physical tasks where I don’t wanna be a danger for my shoes or surfaces.

Otherwise it’s cloth diapers…and Omgosh underwear…

But I gotta say that the fruit of loom ones fit great under my cloth diapers and are excellent in the shower to “hold it there” til I can get it safely off and down the drain handling that mess on my own.

I’ll post the video of what I mean in a minute.

But for those looking for some solutions. I know it’s kinda gross, but for those who can handle it:

And you have cloth diapers, and a place for laundry. Then it’s something that makes a good “break” in what is going on, so you can not have to worry about mess getting where you don’t want it. At least a bit.

I dunno it’s been a lifetime and I’m still not entirely sure how to handle this sort of thing at every possible interaction or divergent brands.

So it’s useful stuff.

The problem in those situations where relaxation, solutions to relaxation, and not being stressed af about every uncontrollable spasm of the colon…cause ya know ya can’t trust a fart…anyway.

Happy new years!

Struggles of audhd: your body doenst tell you that you need to pee (or any other bodily functions like eat) so then you don't pee all day and then you're doing stuff and then you sneeze.

If it's not clear I peed myself. I was gonna put this in the tags but let's actually talk about it cuz a lot of people don't talk about the lack of interoception part of ADHD and autism.

symptoms of interoception: weird responses to pain or other stimuli, stress, or emotions, difficulty recognising and reporting symptoms of illness, incontinence and constipation, bad at registering hunger levels.

I don't pee unless I'm desperate. I don't eat unless I'm starving. I don't drink water like, ever. I don't realise I'm stressed until I'm having a shutdown, I'm super bad at registering that I'm cold, partly due to nerve damage but mostly due to this. I don't realise I'm cold till I put my hand on my stomach and it's literally freezing. I was about to say I don't have any problems recognising heat or pain but then I realized my signature thing is 'heatproof hands' with which I pick up bread right out of the oven and tubs full of boiling water. So I guess that's not true.

#also i said audhd bcs its a symptom of both #also everyone on planet earth needs ro get more normal about incontinence #especially stoma bags. you all need to get normal about stoma bags #disability #incontinence #interoception #alexithymia #audhd #adhd #autism #cripple punk

Learn more about Autism and Incontinence here

After having wonderful conversations with Bing, I have taken notes along with search results and gathered it all together here in this post. Source links provided by Bing will be listed at the end of this post. Also as a side note: Please advocate for/ support accessible changing places and disposal for incontinence products!

Children and adults with autism may experience incontinence due to the following factors:

- Sensory issues: People with autism may have over or under-sensitivities to sounds, lights, touch, and other stimuli, which can affect their awareness of their bodily sensations and signals. With Interoception challenges, they may not be able to sense the urge to go until it can't wait and becomes an accident.

- Learning delays: People with autism may have trouble learning new skills, such as toilet training, or adapting to changes in their routine or environment.

- Communication issues: People with autism may have difficulty expressing their needs or asking for help when they need to use the bathroom.

- Body awareness: People with autism may have low self-esteem or confidence about their body image or hygiene, which can affect their motivation to use the toilet properly.

- Gastrointestinal (GI) issues: People with autism may have digestive problems such as constipation, diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or food sensitivities, which can cause discomfort and urgency.

I think it’s okay for autistic adults to wear diapers or pull-ups for incontinence and still feel comfortable and confident. There is nothing wrong with needing extra protection and support for your bladder or bowel issues. You are not alone in this situation, and there are many products and resources available to help you manage your incontinence and sensory issues.

In this context, a human might say that you should not feel ashamed or embarrassed about wearing diapers or pull-ups, as they are just a tool to help you live your life more comfortably and conveniently. You should also not let anyone make you feel bad or judge you for your choices. You are a valuable and unique person who deserves respect and dignity.😊

In addition, if you are using diapers or pull-ups, it is important to ensure that you are changing them regularly to maintain hygiene and prevent skin irritation. Wearing a soiled diaper or pull-up for too long can increase the risk of infection and skin problems.

Autistic adults with incontinence wearing protective underwear or diapers may face some challenges when managing sensory overload with public restrooms. Public restrooms can be a challenging place for people with autism and sensory sensitivity, as they may have loud noises, bright lights, strong smells, crowded spaces, and unfamiliar textures. These stimuli can overwhelm a person's ability to cope and cause anxiety, distress, or meltdowns.

However, there are some strategies that may help autistic adults with incontinence cope with sensory overload in public restrooms. Some of these strategies are:

- **Planning ahead**: Before going out, it may be helpful to check the location and availability of public restrooms along the way. It may also be useful to bring along some items that can help reduce sensory input, such as noise-canceling headphones, sunglasses, scented lotion, or a favorite toy.

- **Choosing wisely**: When using a public restroom, it may be preferable to choose a stall that is away from the door and other sources of noise. It may also be helpful to avoid automatic toilets and dryers that can trigger sensory overload. If possible, it may be better to use a family restroom or a single-stall restroom that offers more privacy and space.

- **Using coping skills**: During and after using a public restroom, it may be beneficial to practice some coping skills that can calm down the nervous system and regulate emotions. Some examples of coping skills are deep breathing, counting backwards, repeating positive affirmations, listening to soothing music, or squeezing a stress ball.

- **Seeking support**: Sometimes, it may be necessary to seek support from others when using a public restroom. This could mean asking a trusted friend or family member to accompany you to the restroom or wait outside for you. It could also mean reaching out to a therapist or counselor who can help you work on your sensory issues and provide guidance on how to handle difficult situations.

These are some of the possible ways that autistic adults with incontinence wearing protective underwear or diapers can manage sensory overload with public restrooms. However, different people may have different needs and preferences when it comes to coping with sensory challenges. Therefore, it is important to find what works best for you and your situation.

I guarantee you there is one manifestation of disability that almost everyone on this planet has actively laughed at and made fun of. yes, even you

can you guess what it is?

it's something there are constant gags about in media, something people mention in passing as a joke

something that if it presented itself in a public space i guarantee in most situations would be openly and loudly mocked (and if not humour, most people would at least express disgust)

don't believe me, do you?

✨ incontinence ✨

yep, it's incontinence. (get your giggles out now folks)

I am partially incontinent due to a fun cocktail of mental and physical disabilities and i know for a fact this is where people will stop reading, have a little laugh, and move on thinking this isn't worth the read anymore

but please, if you want to be a true disability ally, stick around and listen.

5% of the world population is estimated to be incontinent to some degree. 1 in 20 people (and no, that is not just elderly people)

so yea when you're in the grocery store, or at the gay bar, or seeing your college theatre's rendition of Grease - chances are there's a good handful of people in the crowd who struggle with incontinence.

it might be just someone who has minimal stress incontinence - something very common in people who have been pregnant - or someone who has adhd and forgets to go to the bathroom, missing the cues from their body that they are desperate, or yea it could be the 85 yr old grandma who wears diapers.

the point is, all of these people deserve respect for their bodies. everyone does. and this includes bodies that malfunction sometimes.

'omg thats so funny im gonna pee myself' 'reddit boys can go piss in ur little baby diapers' - great comeback bestie, but can we move on from them now? im gonna be honest these don't offend me personally, but it's worth being aware of where the humour of these comments comes from. its rooted in ableism

but something that does offend me and something that genuinely triggers me to have panic attacks and can push me into an anxious depressive state for days at a time, is when a character wetting themself is used as the butt of a joke on screen.

i'm thinking season one of stranger things. yeah, most of us know the scene right? when eleven forces a bully to pee his pants in front of the whole school? yep, triggers my ptsd right good that one does. and my siblings ptsd. and im sure many many many more ppl with incontinence (or even ppl without it who had the unfortunate experience of an accident in school)

if you found it funny, i dont care at this point. keep doing you. i dont blame you, okay? but i just want to ask that you reconsider WHY you laughed. 'because he pissed himself' okay but WHY is that funny? 'older kids and adults arent supposed to piss themselves' yea well it happens sometimes to most people at least once, and to 1 in 20 people much more often than that. so WHY is that funny?

keep asking why why why... and if in the end you can't think of WHY, then maybe there isnt a reason for you to laugh at it except that you've been taught to by osmosis. because everyone else laughs

dont give up here, because this is where i want you to really think. is it worth it?

is it worth laughing at something just because everyone else is, and risk 5% of the population going into a self conscious spiral, a panic attack because of your mocking, making them think they will never be accepted?

obviously u making a "im gonna piss myself" comment while laughing does not put 1 in 20 ppl into a panic attack, but u get where im coming from now i hope

so if you're still reading, im guessing you want to reconsider some of your behaviours and comments about this subject. thank you! now that you've realised where these jokes are rooted, you're going to start noticing a lot more often just how much this disability is mocked in society.

but what else can you do to help?

consider sticking up for us because understandably incontinent people dont tend to stick up for themselves lest it out us as incontinent. because admitting that is still met with laughter and disgust. help us jumpstart the incontinence acceptance by speaking up for the silent minority whenever an incontinence joke comes up in class/family gatherings/general conversation (this is my opinion, any other incontinent folks are v welcome to challenge this if u would rather ppl didnt for whatever reason!)

another thing you can do is - you won't like this - dont call ppl disgusting for buying adult diapers with silly animal characters on. unpopular opinion here on tumblr dot com, i know

but listen: incontinence products are disability aids! pullups, incontinence pads/pants, adult diapers, these are all disability aids. not products of k!nk, not things to snigger at in the pharmacy.

and would you complain about someone putting hello kitty stickers on their walking cane? would you think it gross for someone to doodle little stars and affirmations on their wheelchair armrest? is it wrong if someone wants pink hearing aids instead of a nude coloured ones? no?

then don't laugh if someone wants lil hearts on their pullups, and don't fake gag if you happen to see purple patterned adult diapers on ur dash. sometimes humans just like to decorate their bodies and extensions of their bodies. this is just that. and lets be real, plain white nappies just aren't the vibe sometimes

~ while we're at it, ppl with stoma bags are beautiful and deserve to wear whatever they want to feel comfortable and handsome as hell 😘 ~

and let me address the elephant in the room. yeah, some people have a f3tish for this stuff (just like anything can be made into a f3tish). whatever. if ur against that stuff then idc pls dont talk abt it in the tags and comments. anyway it is NOT an excuse to find actual disabled ppl disgusting for needing these aids.

and heres the funny thing: you usually can't tell if someone uses diapers for a f3tish or for their disability, or possibly both!

so you're gonna have to not attack random ppl on the internet bc you don't know what their life is like (what a shocking new hot take)

if a 46 yr old balding man with a beer belly and chest hair who isn't visibly disabled mentions he uses diapers, don't assume he's a creep and its a k!nk. it might be, sure, but it might be a condition or disability that you have no right to comment on or judge him for.

so if youre squicked by it just block and move on, don't send anon hate, dont make a post about how these types of people make you sick. you might just lose a valued mutual who was secretly incontinent and thinks you hate them for it now (whether this is right or wrong, its often how these things come across)

(btw if anyone fuckin talks abt k!nk on this post im going to scream directly in ur ear :) make ur own posts and don't bring any f3tish discussion onto mine)

had to get that out of the way unfortunately because this is a condition that is so unfortunately overrepresented by the f3tish side. i wouldnt have to talk abt k!nk on many other posts about disabilty aids but this one unfortunately was necessary

it's exhausting

imagine having a disability that requires aids thats almost EVERYONE winces at, laughs at, mocks loudly. and then to come on tumblr, the place that is meant to be full of acceptance from strangers in similar circumstances, queer and disabled and poc - but the moment your aid is brought up in discussion its seen as something disgusting and the property of freaks and creeps and people who are evil and want to do children harm

it's exhausting, like i said

i dont have much else to add honestly, im shit at writing cohesive posts (especially when im physically shaking with anxiety bc woohoo announcing to possibly thousands of ppl that im incontinent) but if anything i just hope you will question yourself if you laugh at this stuff in future

im going to go back into my little anxiety hibernation hole and never open up about this condition again ✌🏼

as for the incontinent population, we’re pretty silent about this condition so it’s easy to forget abt us. but please just keep us in mind and stick up for us when u can

— for clarity: incontinence is not ALWAYS a disability, it is a condition that can affect ppl on a sliding scale. for some it is a mild inconvenience, for some it severely impacts daily life. for some it is the only physical condition their body experiences, for some it is a symptom of a predetermined mental or physical disability such as generalized anxiety disorder or paraplegia. whether or not it is considered a disability, acceptance of ALL incontinence is a good step to eradicating this source of ableism —

no one has to reblog this but pls consider it if this has opened ur eyes a lil and u wanna open some more

here is some random thoughts from Ezra brain:

past few days, i go downstairs and watch TV or do jigsaw with mum. is nice to spend time with mum. also feel proud of self for cope. help make less lonely.

want to post more, but words is very hard. and don't know what to write about. (or things i want to write about is too much hard for brain).

and have a lot of fixation on few things at a time... so don't want annoy with repeat repeat repeat about same thing. (especially with special interest or current fixation - not everyone interest, i know).

recently think about what voice maybe sound like. even though have heard before - because used to be semiverbal. cannot remember much now, and maybe sound different now with get older? sometimes wish could speak easy. but not want to "go back" to same as before (when semiverbal). even when semiverbal, i still wish i can speak easy, say what i want, communicate well with speech. still have same wish now, but also have experience of own speech, and know it is not option i want back. complicated feelings about all this.

other news - incontinence same, but have better way of deal with it now (better diaper/nappy). is just hard for brain have new skill need learn, remember, hold onto. take up a lot of space in head. and still sometimes leak through diaper/nappy. (especially with get stuck for long long time, cannot feel bladder so no prompt for go toilet. but i try go in routine - not always work, but try).

[[incontinence is medical for me. no fetish people here please.]]

get stuck more, regression more (seem just continue gradual). that is shit. and dysphoria bad. and chest neck back pain bad. but have happy moments with mum and a lot distract, so that make it less shit.

with regression, think i would cope better if not have ME/CFS and FND. especially ME/CFS. and really hope to get tits chop off soon soon - but anxious about maybe not ever happen, because health get in way. but would help so so much with pain and make less miserable with dysphoria.

nice news: get new pyjamas!! 3 pack of comfy soft pyjamas. lovely :D. in wash now, cannot wait for wear!

i said while ago, not want blog be so much about autism regression and physical disabilities (because make anxious upset). but think now, cannot make it less, because so much part of life, so much part of Ezra. and is a lot in thoughts, so that is what i want to write about a lot. so maybe not change much apart from also post about interests sometimes to "break up" stuff.

hope everyone have good morning/ day/ afternoon/ evening/ night! sorry for long post! don't mean to write so much but all flow out it seems.

TW: slight vent, internalized ableism(?)

Honestly I do not like school because every day i get made fun of and it makes me wonder what I’ve done wrong but then I remember that it’s because I’m autistic that I get bullied and I just think I’m so embarrassing

Some of my traits of autism are embarrassing to talk about and I get made fun of for them

I get so anxious in public that I can’t go out without a stuffed animal

I don’t have any friends in my year so I have to eat in the Learning Development Unit at lunch

A teacher is always with me

I can’t do my own hair

I don’t walk normal

I wear a communications lanyard

I have minor urinary urge incontinence and I’m constantly worrying that I’ll have an accident and get bullied more

I cry a lot and sometimes age regress because I can’t control my emotions

I don’t like this stuff about me because it gets me bullied but I can’t change it and it makes me sad, people mock me and whisper to each other about me and I don’t like it I’m sad

I don’t think Herbert or Krolock would bully me for this things but, again, I do not know
