22yo Engineering Student: My "Battle of Dominance" with Heavy Denim & Trauma (Story/Discussion)

I’m a 22yo student, and I have a very specific kink that’s deeply tied to my childhood and neurodivergence. I’m posting here because I want to connect with guys who understand the "heavy gear" and "wetting" scene from a deeper perspective.

The Kink: I’m obsessed with the resistance of heavy denim and workwear (like Red Kap). Because of a medical condition (phimosis) I had until I was 20, I discovered that forcing myself to urinate through thick, stiff jeans created an incredible pressure and climax. It’s a battle of dominance—forcing the liquid through fabric that "doesn't want" to let it go.

The Why (The Trauma):

This isn't just a random fetish. I was severely bullied and shamed in school regarding the bathroom. Now, as an adult, I’ve inverted that trauma. What was once my shame is now the only way I feel powerful and in control. When I’m in my gear, I’m the one in charge.

The Struggle:

Being ADHD and hyper-vigilant, this "act" is often the only way I can "reset" my brain and feel calm. But I often feel like I’m on autopilot and struggle with the shame afterwards.

I want to hear from you:

• Does anyone else here use wetting/heavy denim as a way to reclaim power?

• How do you guys deal with the "shame" vs. "pleasure" balance in the kink community?

• Anyone else into the "cowboy/rugged" aesthetic for the same reasons?

I don’t have a photo today, but I’m looking for real conversation and support from brothers who get it.

How childhood trauma and bullying turned into a specific paraphilia (Enuresis/Denim). Looking for perspective.

Hi everyone. I’m a 22yo male (Engineering student) and I’m finally trying to face a complex situation involving childhood trauma, neurodivergence, and a very specific paraphilia. I’m looking for support from anyone who has used their body or "shame" to regain control after being bullied.

The Background & The Mechanism:

Since I was 8, I’ve had a fetish for urinating in my pants. At 12, due to undiagnosed phimosis, I discovered a way to feel pleasure: I would force myself to urinate through thick denim jeans. The restriction caused by the phimosis created intense pressure, which led to ecstasy and climax.

My grandfather was the only one who knew and never judged me, which created a deep emotional bond. I lost him when I was 13, and since then, I’ve felt a void. I only realized my body was "different" at 20, when I finally had surgery for the phimosis. The physical urge decreased, but the mental need remains stronger than ever.

The Evolution of the Fantasy:

Currently, I cannot let go of the "jeans" element. It has evolved into fantasies involving very thick clothing, like cowboy attire (heavy denim/leather) or rugged workwear (like Red Kap uniforms). It’s about the resistance of the fabric. In my mind, the clothes "don't want" to let the liquid through, and I have to force it until it sprays through the fabric. It’s a battle of dominance over the clothing.

Trauma & Social Anxiety:

My therapist believes this is a direct result of severe bullying. In school, I was humiliated for needing the bathroom. One teacher even made me stand in front of the class with books on my head or forced me to clean all the desks because I spilled water. Today, even a simple trip to a public restroom is a high-stress event that I have to "plan" meticulously to avoid being judged.

Neurodivergent Traits & "Resets":

I’ve been medicated for ADHD in the past. I have "stimming" behaviors:

• Hand rubbing: When I’m overwhelmed, I rub my hands until my vision blurs and I hold my breath. It feels like a "system reset."

• Rocking to music: I lay in bed and rock my body to the rhythm. It’s the only way I can calm my anxiety before exams.

Hyper-Vigilance & Helping Others:

I’m constantly in "alert mode," scanning for danger or theft. I also have a deep need to help others (people-pleasing). I have one close friend who finally supported me in seeking help. My therapist says I try to be the support for others that I never had when I was a child.

My Goal:

I want to leave this paraphilia behind and find healthy ways to feel pleasure without shame. I want to understand why I go into "autopilot" and how to feel at peace with my body.

Has anyone else experienced this "inversion of trauma"? Where something that was used to humiliate you becomes the only way you feel powerful or in control?
