Showering frequency and time of day poll

How many days a week do you shower and at what time of day do you shower?

I am really struggling with regular showers because of negatives. What time of day should I shower? Any tips for motivation? When I do absolutely need a shower I put it off all day until late afternoon and then I’m crabby as ■■■■ and it makes the showering experience even worse.

I am thinking of trying my best to shower in the morning on days that I need to shower. That way I won’t put it off and dread it all day long. I hope I can.

I barely shower

As I have said a trillion times on this forum, I take a shower anytime I’m going anywhere, which generally means several times a week.

On the rare weeks that I am not going anywhere, I guess I might take a shower once or twice a week.

The time of day is not set for me. It’s dependent on various circumstances, like what time of day appt is or whatever.

I don’t want to seem like I’m flexing on everyone for showering everyday because I have to do it for my eczema and allergies. It’s hard, though, definitely.

I shower twice a week, but stepping into the shower for a quick rinse does wonders for my mood so I`m trying to take a shower everyday now.

Once a day usually at night. Showerings/hygiene has never been a problem for me though.

Usually twice a day for me. I might neglect some areas of life, but personal hygiene has rarely been one of them. If im having a particularly down and hopeless couple days i might go a day without one. Thats if i dont go outside anywhere at least. Since its still hot here this time of year. And i sweat a lot when walking or riding in the heat. Usually i find showering helps with my mental health. An ice cold one can snap me out of whatevers going on in my head like anxiety or weariness. And a nice hot one can soothe my spirit and relax me. My negs tend to moreso affect me in that they numb my emotions and make me not interested in anything. But i don’t get the cant get out of bed or shower part luckily.

I took a shower today, it was over due

I’m ashamed to say that I average taking a shower once every 2 weeks.

My negatives concerning my hygiene are awful!

I’m working on improving this with my counselor

Once every two weeks although Im really pushing it this months havent showered in about 3 weeks

twice a week…enough for me…

i dont have a schedule. prob every 10-14 days. prob average 10 days. any time of day.

Not frequently but thanks for the reminder, I got mine.

I shower once a week but I should probably shower three times a week.

I sit in the warm tub everyday for cardio conditioning but i dont clean myself. But the hot water cleans a little

I need to shower every other day because my smelling symptoms get worse. Like it will exaggerate my smell until I take a shower.

for the second poll it’s in the afternoon. After i watched movie i go wash in shower or bath. and i shower once a week and once a week a bath. so i chose 2 times a week.
