I finally showered.
Hi guys! I didn't know where else to put this so I'm putting it here. I've finally managed to get myself into the shower after almost a full three months without showering. I know it sounds bad but I've gone almost double that last year so this is a pretty big accomplishment for me. I did a full body shower and it took me over an hour to shave and exfoliate myself!
If anyone's also going through the same thing as me and can't find motivation - I've found that telling myself things like "This feels good, I feel good." and "I don't have to do everything at one go and if I don't want to shower anymore I can just get out." just any positive affirmations I could tell myself helped me through that shower more than I could've imagined, also because I'm heavy on the 'do all or nothing' part of everything.
So that also effected my showers and made me super tired when it was an all or nothing mindset. Just remember to take it slow and if you don't want to continue the shower you don't have to. The main point is that you got in the shower and tried which is the big idea.
Thank you if you read this! I hope I can continue this routine somewhat, and I hope this post helps someone out there like me.
EDIT: Thank you so much for the support and kind comments!! I'm trying my best to go through them and reply, and even if I don't I've for sure seen it! This really means a lot to me thank you! All of you guys awesome.
