...do any of you find it particularly difficult to shower or bathe? If so, how do you deal with that? And how often do you shower or bathe? I do this daily but feel a lot of anxiety beforehand because I don't like the feeling of wetness all over, particularly in my hair. I dry my hair with a blowdryer as soon as I am done with the shower. I also hate the feeling of towels on my skin as I dry myself too, although it's much worse when I'm wet.
What about other things, like combing your hair or putting on lotion?
I shower when I feel dirty or when I have to be presentable and don't feel clean enough.
As a result I might shower every day in summer but only once a week or less in winter.
I sometimes have s strip wash and only wash the parts of me that in my opinion need it.
My hair is short enough not to warrant combing or brushing ever.
I don't like lotions. They feel as if they suffocate my skin, my face being the exception. On rare occasions I will put some DDML form Clinique on my face and neck but only when the though of wrinkles in old age gets the better of me
