I'm bringing it up wondering if anyone else has gotten to the bottom of it. It makes sense that in the depths of depression you just don't wanna. But what about after, in stability, or even when manic?!?! Do others still have this issue then and do you have any idea why?
THANKS!

Thank YOU. I've long wondered about that myself, because I have the same problem! I used to take showers daily, now it's once or twice a week, and it doesn't matter where I'm at on the mood spectrum. Weird.
