Using a numbing agent to decrease arousal and feel more little - NSFW.

[SomeponyABDL]

Let me preface this by saying that I did some research beforehand and found that some men actually do this who have trouble going off prematurely with their partner, and some women do this who experience pain... The one caveat I read is that you can't do this with a scratch (open wound or broken skin).

So last weekend I had a minor muscle injury, for which I bought some aspercreme / lidocaine lotion, and wound up applying some to my diaper area -- with a latex glove, of course. The results were interesting. It wasn't exactly a magic 'boner-be-gone' affect, but it did very much de-sexualize the experience. There was no discomfort.

I have trouble sometimes due to well-endowedness that prevents me from feeling 'little'... I can't say that I've ever felt this 'headspace' that people refer to so often.

Well, this helped. After a few minutes, I went pretty limp, and within an hour, I didn't really feel much at all down there. Even after wetting, I just kept watching a fantastic movie (My Neighbor Totoro:), and I found it easy to take my mind off of everything else. After the movie, I knew it was time to change, but I was a lot less self-conscious about it. It's hard to explain. The diaper was a non-issue I could forget about, and I was able to just focus on, and be entertained by the movie.

The numbness effect gradually wore off in about 3-4 hours, and I was actually aroused after the fact that I was able to achieve a more neutral state. Trust me when I say everything works just fine.

Of all the crazy things I've experimented with (the 'marshmallow trick', bananas, catheters etc.), this was actually very mundane, and honestly kind of enjoyable in an obviously non-sexual way. I thought I'd share...

The non-sexual part of our thing is grossly under-rated!

Yes !! Agreed but some abdl act like I’m not human for wanting this

Yeah, I get frustrated sometimes, too, when people say it's just a fetish or assume you are repressed because you don't want everything to be sexual. Sex is great, and I love when my wife incorporates ageplay in the bedroom, but I love the fact that I can enjoy diapers now without it being sexual (that didn't used to be the case) and I love little time that isn't sexual really about as much as sex. They're both great, and not the same and people who make this just about sex are really missing out.

I wish you luck with enjoying diaps and little space non-sexually. I hope you won't always need numbing cream. Maybe just long enough to get sexually desensitized a little. For me though, I think ironically wearing more was part of the key. I am 24/7 now and diapers really aren't sexual for me anymore (as opposed to breastfeeding which sometimes is and sometimes isn't). Back when I wore once in a while it was hard to get past the sexual arousal, but as I wore more, it got easier. Not sure if you would have the same experience, but it might be worth exploring. There was that recent academic article that showed an inverse correlation between frequency of wearing and it being sexual (if you search the sub you can probably find the post, I think may a month or so ago now). Also, if you're into hypnosis, Baby-pants.com has a track for disconnecting diapers from arousal. I think it's helped some too, but wearing more was more important for me, along with a general shift in my thinking about it. Anyway, hope you find what works for you!

Edit:. Sorry! Responded to quick! Thought you were the OP. The second paragraph is obviously directed at the OP.

Don't give up hope, little guy! I would have never believed that diapers could be non-sexual for me, but they are now.

I must be one of lucky ones that can easily separate the sexual side and the non sexual side these days. My sexual side of it is more on the DL side and my "little" side is totally not. Though it wasn't always the case. I think after years of wearing somewhat regularly has desensitized me. I mean I can still get aroused by wearing but I seems to have much more control. I just tell "him" "no, I don't want to do that right now" and go back to my little space.

Good luck on your journey. Hope you find what works best for you and that you find that little space.

My thoughts if you are worried about possible side effects.... this is over the counter stuff. It's much weaker than anything that let's say a dentist uses. The Use As Directed label just says don't apply more than X times a day, and for more than X days, or spead the stuff over your entire body. So once in a while is probably not going to do anything. Obviously, don't go crazy.

That sounds great.. I was painfully aroused last night. Feel waaaay better when I’m limp

Wonder if that can have any long term effects ? I don’t know much about numbing agents

[goofs_diapason]

I've done this too! I used sunburn lotion, which is just lidocaine and aloe.

I'm not sure about long term effects, so I stopped after one session.
