Okay Update

Been using the PREP Dabbler Bottle and it's been working fine, plus now I hold the toilet paper tube for three minutes with the paste

When I prepare my wafer I cut the wafer cutout lengthwise in half and put the ring around the edge of the wafer hole, sticky side up. Then cut the remaining piece in half and place on top of that at 3 and 9 o'clock positions to fill my belly fold. Slap on a bead of paste then one around the stoma skin side first to ensure it sticks and sandwich them together. Toilet paper tube hard for three minutes and I'm good.

I've been getting about 3-4 days now. Much happier.

Only tiny leaks at the 6 o'clock position and I try to get to it right away so it doesn't get bad as it will dig a trench there and take a longer time to heal.
I get knocked down, but I get up again
You're never gonna keep me down...
