I have to wash my hair and take a shower and I soooo don't want to

It’s been a week exactly since my last shower and hair wash. It’s time again and I am so unmotivated. I have some time now to at least wash my short hair. It would be a cinch.

Sending a lot of willpower your way!!!
I hope you can find the resources within you to do it.

Try and find joy in it. That’s what helped me. And eventually I got out of the rythym of having self hygiene issues. Doing walks around the block helped motivate me to shower more too. As well as with a better laundry habit.

Is there any way to make the shower enjoyable? :slight_smile: I try to make my showers fun to make me more motivated to take them.

How do you make your showers fun, may I ask, @ZombiePupper?

I washed my hair, by the way.

I’m like a dorky child, so I like to make a game out of it. Earning points, racking up high scores. I also have thought about getting stuff that you can paint or draw in the shower with that washes off with the water so I can doodle and distract myself while I let my conditioner set.

Oh, that’s cool. What’s the name of the stuff you use to draw with in the shower @ZombiePupper?

There. I’ve downloaded it and entered my data into Habitica. It’s really cool. We’ll see if it motivates me. I entered my showers, hair washing, teeth brushing, flossing, yoga, and piano practice.

Scented soap helps, @ZombiePupper.

Yes! Nice-smelling soaps always help. Also bath bombs for bath people.

Go, go, girl, I am with you! Think how the water will take away all the dirt and the negative emotions, I think of this :slight_smile:

Try to think a shower as soothing and invigorating, I take one every morning and it makes me look much better and I’m ready to start the day.
