After I have a shower I always feel more stressed and anxious. Usually though I have a pint of water it helps me relax after showering.


Why do you think coming out of a shower makes me feel more on edge?

A lot of autistic people find the shower spray itself to be very unpleasant, due to sensory issues. So perhaps you are tensing up to deal with that and by the time you're done, your body is very tense? Just an idea.

Maybe the temperature of a hot shower makes a difference after you don’t have it anymore… like the body is in shock.
