Hi emwell,

I do not like showering in a stall shower as it is triggering of the morning following when I was assaulted and raped.

It took me many years to find comfort in water and tubs are hunky dory for me but showers? Nah! Ick!

If my schedule isn't full I will find excuses not to shower here (no tub) for more days at a time than I care to admit to.

Don't get mad at yourself for having a hard time with this. Instead try some gentle acceptance with yourself around this issue.

It will take time to find a way to make it work for you. Like I said it took years of focused work on my part in order for me to feel comfortable naked under running water.

Feel free to PM me if you want to hear some of the more detailed things that I did over the years to help..............but I still don't like showering so not sure how much help I am.
