I guess I must be a strange animal because I take one everyday sometimes even twice or three times a day...

I'm going to choir in a bit. I should take a shower before bed tonight. Getting dirty. Or I could take one now. That seems like such a chore- but that's what this thread is all about. If I'm taking it now, I'd better get a move-on.

Edited to add: I just took a shower and dried my hair. All clean and redressed and ready to go to choir.

Just took one. This has been a problem for me since being depressed three years ago. Now I am taking one every other day on a regular basis. I find if I am clean and my hair is good, I am much more willing to go out and do something.

I understand the shower thing. I make myself get a shower every 3 days. Sometimes I dont, but I try. I have been good the last week, though. I have never been this depressed. I was always a person showered once a day AT LEAST, and sometimes twice if work was extra stressful. I have almost stopped eating, mostly because whatever I eat doesn't want to stay down. It's okay though, I havery , good 75 pounds to lose, of you ask my soc.

I feel like I have become invisible. That somehow I have been erased but I don't know it yet.

Anyway...Congrats on the shower! It may seem small to other people who don't know about depression, but that is a huge accomplishment.

I took a quick shower today. I do it without even thinking now. Couldn't say the same a few years ago.

I should've read this a few hours ago, since I got a shower this afternoon. (Yay! Refreshed!) I'll try it next time.

showers always make me feel horrible and ugly.

I am not sure why they feel so refreshing for so many people

perhaps it's just because I hate my looks and my body, so...

It had been several days, so I just took a shower and did some laundry. Now I'm freshly clean with dry hair- even if my daughter says my hair looks weird!- and feeling good. Plus, I managed to do all this before pdoc called me. (I'm expecting her to call me this afternoon.)

Took one real early this morning. 'twas a wonderfully bracing experience.

I only did it in preparation for a medical procedure. Wish I didn't need that kind of a mandate . . . cause it was great. Up at the sound of the alarm, into the shower, dressed and out the door. Haven't done that in a loooooong time.
