This man from Denver, Colorado, was born with a condition which forces him to wear ADULT DIAPERS every day.

He is now sharing his experience with his thousands of followers in an attempt to break the stigma associated with his condition.

Marc Spagnuolo, 35, was diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy at the age of 25.

Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that prevents the signals from reaching his brain so when the bowels and bladder are full, his body just voids.

This had led to Marc becoming reliant on adult diapers. He uses around three diapers a day and in total spends $180 on them a month.

Marc explained: “It is a common misconception that these issues only affect the elderly, or the severely injured, or the very young.

"I can tell you with certainty that incontinence and bedwetting issues are prevalent across all age spectrums and far more normal than people think.”

Marc started wetting his bed at about 15. The following 10 years, he slowly lost full control of his bladder and this is when, at the age of 25, that he was diagnosed.

He said: "In the beginning I was very ashamed and embarrassed.
