I am shopping for gym membership. I have 8 options in my vicinity. For starters, I went to 24 hour fitness today and after cardio exercise on the machines, swimming, and a little jacuzzi/steam room/sauna, I took a long shower with washing and detangling my hair. It was pleasant. As I suspected, showering does not feel like a waste of time or an unpleasant chore when it is away from home and especially when it is after sweating.
I suspect that if I indeed start going to the gym 3 times a week, I will have this shower aversion problem solved completely. __________________ 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 |

I AM on a roll. Took a shower inside the clubhouse of this apartment complex after exercising for more than an hour (cardio).
Washed, conditioned, and detangled my hair. Feeling so good and sleepy. About to take Seroquel and go to bed. __________________ 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 |

A quick COLD shower! Cold because I did temperature contrasts after a workout at one of the fitness centers I am currently considering. I would go to the sauna, then into a cold shower, then back to the sauna, etc. I finished with a cold shower. I did not wash my hair, though. Yesterday I was at my hairdresser's and she washed my hair.

Came home from Orangetheory fitness, took a shower, washed my hair, put on a festive dress and went to the opera. Feeling squishy clean and pleasant.

Got a free trial pass to the YMCA. After a 50 min workout, took a shower and washed my hair.
Clearly this is much progress 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 |

I took a long shower and washed my hair at Orangetheory fitness after a workout this morning. This felt and still feels so good. After the shower, I moisturizied all my skin surfaces.

I took a shower today and washed my hair. I need a hair cut. am hoping that I can trust the next gal to cut it..
It is not good that I am showering less and less. I still think it has to do with me gaining so much weight. sigh 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 |

Bizi, I understand how the weight makes you feel less and less inclined to see your own naked body.

I took a shower at Orangetheory fitness after class. I did not wash my hair and didn't moisturize.

I took a shower at home in the morning. It was difficult but I had to detangle my hair. When it gets to be a bird's nest, it cannot be brushed or combed but has to be detangled in a shower.
I did it and afterwards moisturized my upper body. it is amazing how different taking at a shower at home versus at a gym is. At home, it is work and I have to force myself. At a gym, it is easy-breezy. __________________ 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 |

A quick shower after working out at the gym. Yes, washed my feet. Also, moisturized afterwards. Feeling amazing.
It is so peculiar how at fitness centers I have absolutely no trouble taking a shower and at home, it is still so difficult. __________________ 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 |

It has been too cold to shower of late (minus temps here), so I've just been washing, still cold even with warm water. I probably should shower soon though
