I’ve been guilty of sleeping in my street clothes or shirt and waking up the next day and wearing the same clothes I slept in.
Why is this commonly seen with psychotic/SZ patients?
I also tend to wear the same clothes over and over again.
I guess I’ve gotten to where I don’t go anywhere so I don’t care. I usually shower at night put on comfy clothes, wear them to bed and often the next day.
Sometimes i wear the same clothes for 2 or 3 days in a row, because i dont leave the house. We keep the a/c cold so I don’t really sweat. I dunno, maybe its gross, but im too lazy to change them every day.
I’m the same as you, or, I do the same thing. For me it’s because I learned to do it by living homeless. Once I discovered that I could just do it, I think that I decided on some subconscious level that there was no reason to live by any other means.
I try to change clothes and shower regularly but I’m always drawn towards just wearing the same thing for a couple days at a time
at my lowest in care for myself I never changed my clothes and only rag bathed for about two years…slept in overalls I would take to my mom’s and she would wash them. come a long, long way.
And because I have had cockroach in bed with me.
With clothes they are less likely to touch me .
Had em on my face few times but thankfully i have a repellent now that seems to keep them away mostly.
Also because I can’t be bothered getting changed to pyjamas.
Wear same clothes day n night unless I’m dressed up and only change underwear once a day.
I stay permantly in pajama bottoms, execpt for the 5 mins down the corner shop lol.
So im always ready for bed. I change them every other day tho, after a bath.
I used to always wear my clothes to bed. But nowadays, I hate it, but nightly I take my clothes off and put on a night gown and pj bottoms. I still wear the same clothes for three days at a time though until I take my next bath or shower. I bathe or shower about every 3 days.
