I am so glad to find this thread.
I don't know the why of it.
For myself, the normal me loves a good, long soak, all girlie fragrant, and relaxing.

When I am as I am now, not my normal self, it such an aversion to the whole concept of getting wet! And it is an ordeal all the while in the bath or shower that exhausts me, wears me out as if I'd wrestled some wild animal! It makes no sense.

I'd think after that, I'd be tired out enough for sleep, but noooo.

This is one of the states-of-being I've only had to experience twice in my six decades.
But it concerns me that it is twice in four years now that I have to white knuckle my way into the bathtub. And unlike others posted here, I do not enjoy it nor is it relaxing for me.
I normally love a good bath! What ever is wrong with me??
