To take your mind off of your health problems (including incontinence), I was just curious as to what everyone did to relax.

I like to sit down to a cup of hot tea and listen to classical music. It helps me relax after a long day. I prefer not to let my health problems run my life completely. Diapers are not the end all be all. I have to escape somehow and find some peace. This is how I do it. How do you?

Don, I try to participate in several activities that I have enjoyed long befoe I lost control of my bladder. I work lots of hours and see little time off which cuts into my relaxing time. A few of the activities can be physically intensive but I enjoy them which helps me forget about the everyday grind. For me this is relaxation. I do on occasion enjoy coming home after a long day putting my feet up and enjoying an adult beverage. I tend to fall asleep after about an hour or less of watching TV.
