RE: [Incont] my story

May i ask why you are fighting it and worring about it so much.
Wear diapers or a pad and i might want to choose some new friends if there
making fun of you.
But dont worry about it try and help your self as much as possible but dont
stress over it and there should be no reason you cant make freinds or hold
up a full time job i have pently of friends and hold a job and wear diapers.
Dont let this get you down every one has a medical problem at one time or
another.
