I always forget about my naval. When I was younger I would never wash behind my ears.
My skin. Depression sucks.
Sometimes I tell myself I’m gonna get in, soap up, rinse, get out, two minutes tops.
Then I’m just standing there in the hot water ten minutes later. Knowing l’ll be late for work if I don’t move. And just standing there, trying to somehow soak up enough heat to internalize the comfort and make it mine.
But it’s not mine.
Maybe you could switch to evening showers?
Pros: luxuriate in there as long as you want, feel comforted, more sleeping in.
Cons: idk, I love an evening shower. Drying your hair before bed I guess?
Yeah, armpits… forget them from time to time.
No worries, you’re perfectly normal 👍.
Signed: The guy with ADHD… probably… not diagnosed… have no idea 🤷… maybe it’s the drugs…
Having been there; see if you can get a diagnosis. The medication is way cheaper and allowed me to stop self medicating completely, which has all sorts of other benefits.
No one diagnoses that here, I live in a fucked up country. Have to go abroad for that, but currently, no money for that, have a small kid 🤷.
You might be able to find something tele-medicine related. I’m bout familiar with your specifics, but thought I’d mention it.
Good luck friend. The struggle is real.
On weekends I don’t use deodorant so in the shower my armpits get a refresh.
I only use deodorant when going out or to events, which is pretty close to never nowadays 🤣.
I’d love to be able to do this but I’d have armpit stains down to my bellybutton after 5 minutes. Hyperhidrosis is… fun?

Sometimes I forget to rinse the shampoo out of my hair and then I have to turn on the water again.
Back of my neck! I always have a shower cap on on non shampoo days and I usually miss my neck.
Supposedly shampooing every day strips your hair of natural oils so many people will not wash their hair at all on some days or just wash with conditioner aka “cowash.”
