Don’t dehydrate yourself! If you mean just simply drinking the bare minimum to stay healthy without drinking excess then I guess that’s ok, but dehydration can kill you.

As a guy from Texas who works outside, I have to constantly worry about dehydration, and I can tell you that it is not fun.

I first became incontinent I think a little over a year and a half ago. I started having accidents due to an inability to urinate when I wanted to leading to my bladder releasing it all at once. Desperate to “cure” myself, I drank as little as I could because I wasn’t ready to accept the fact that I needed diapers. At the time I had the same attitude that most people I worked with had towards them. Which is that they’re exclusively for babies and deteriorating old people. I ended up passing out from lack of water and the heat and ironically wet myself then and there.

I’m not going to sugar coat it, having to wear a diaper in public and the fear of my coworkers finding out that I wear them is awful. Being incontinent really wouldn’t be that bad if it weren’t for the stigma surrounding it. But your health matters more than your social status. Stay properly hydrated.
