A lot of pleasurable sink baths lately right after cardio on the treadmill, cardio with sweat dripping off my forehead.
But no full body showers.

After walking more than 5K on a treadmill, took a shower, washed my hair, and went to the symphony's opening night. What a pleasant sequence of events!

I had a revelation in the shower this week. Because the stupid drain runs so slowly, i turned off the water after i washed my hair and face. Then i soaped up the rest of my body - and how PLEASANT it was without all those vicious little drops attacking me relentlessy and foiling my attempts to get soapy all over! It was like, all of a sudden, i wasnt in the middle of a mad rock concert or a wartime battlefield. I could be calm. And i calmly washed my legs and feet, the bane of so many youtube and other online rants: "Wash your legs!!!"
 Reader, I did.

A shower this morning. Washed and strangled my hair. Listened to an opera which made it easier to tolerate that a shower takes so long.
Didn't moisturize afterwards but did apply sunscreen to face, neck, decolletage and hands. __________________ Bipolar I w/psychotic features Last inpatient stay in 2018 Geodon 40 mg Seroquel 75 mg Gabapentin 1200 mg+Vitamin B-complex (against extrapyramidal side effects) Long term side effects from medications, some of them discontinued: - hypothyroidism - obesity BMI ~ 38 |

Did one hour of walking on the treadmill this evening. Not fast, at 2.6 mph, but still sweated a lot. Considered taking a shower but decided against taking a 2nd shower in one day. No, I will limit it to a sink bath and wash my face with a gentle cleanser after taking off eye makeup.

I think I am onto something, a solution to this problem.
Next to the little gym inside the clubhouse at the complex where I do cardio, there is a shower. I took a shower there once and I liked it better than taking a shower at home. Maybe because as a new place, it does not come with baggage and negative associations unlike at home, maybe because it is pleasant to hop into a shower straight after exercise while sweat is still warm, and maybe because at home I have a regular shower over tub and at the clubhouse there is a shower stall with a surface on which it is much more convenient to wash feet and legs (yes Unaluna! I want to also say to my reader that I have washed them). So now I am putting together a gym bag with shower supplies, slippers, a towel and I will need some sort of a clean warm robe to walk back to my unit... have to figure this part out still. Optimistic that this might be it for me. __________________ Bipolar I w/psychotic features Last inpatient stay in 2018 Geodon 40 mg Seroquel 75 mg Gabapentin 1200 mg+Vitamin B-complex (against extrapyramidal side effects) Long term side effects from medications, some of them discontinued: - hypothyroidism - obesity BMI ~ 38 |

Took a shower and wash my hair. one week not bad. Ladies in the oldest days only took showers once a week. And It was hot and full of hard work. I don't think they had deodorant back then.

Waiting until I exercise to the point of sweat dripping to take a shower. Until then, sink baths for me.

I took my shower early enough that it had some time to dry without blow drying. I styled it a little bit and went to bed it was not to frightening when I woke up and I styled it pretty well.
maybe I could shower more often. I like my showers hot though. I officially showered 11-12-23 pm. just to keep my self accountable. bizi __________________ lamictal 2x a day haldol 2x a day cogentin 2x a day klonipin , 1mg at night, fish oil coq10 multi vit,, vit c, at noon, tumeric, caffeine Remeron at night, zyprexa, requip2-4mg |
