I don't shower a lot when I'm depressed. Sometimes I feel anxiety about showering. I know when I was severely depressed it was phsyically exhausting to wait for the water to warm up, get in, wash my hair, wash my self, then dry off and stuff.
My doctor is trying to adjsut my meds and oddly - I was only showering when I had to go leave the house for an appointment or something. BUT I found it easier to wash dishes and cook. I don't understand that. |

I noticed this past summer that my friend doesn't always bathe or shower either. He was kind enough to cut my grass throughout the growing season. At the end of a sweaty day, he would go rinse off in my pool, dry off, then watch tv. I asked if he wanted to shower or bathe and his answer was always "I'll do that later" I found it strange but I love his strangeness. So I just go along with it. Just yesterday, his son came to visit him and one of the first questions was, DAD, did you shower or bathe today?? I've only been around him for 9 months, his son has had a lifetime of knowing his patterns. I think its humorous, but I do know that if when we go out to wherever, he does shower or bathe.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
