SHowering

Anyone else hate showering or baths. Im not sure if its depression or just not wanting to feel cold. Plus I am exhausted after drying myself and moisturizing.

Have some good heating in your bathroom, use moisturising soap or shower gel, and buy yourself a thick full length toweling robe and just put that on when you have finished. You won't need to dry yourself then.

Many with depression find self care very difficult and I do myself. x

Lol, I agree, lots of work when we are feeling the blahs. Even when I am feeling pretty good, wahing, drying, moisturizering and hair and makeup, ugh and then still do nothing but the bare essentials. We have a dog now, for my husband's PTSD, pup helps me get motivated too, to get up and at least take him out for his walks. I get it.

I can relate, it's strange.

I don't hate it, but have fibromyalgia so can feel exhausted by it. Sometimes when planning a bath I opt for a quick shower instead

I get that. It's such a hassle sometimes and I hate it, but I know I hate feeling oily or dirty more. That's the only thing that motivates me xD

You don’t have to shower every day.

A wash of your face and nether regions will be fine.

Stay warm x
