Turning the tap on that nice bed-like environment is a real dopamine hurdle. And I keep getting lost in my thoughts. Bathrooms are practically stimulation-less spaces.

I have a built in timer that is my water heater running out of hot water, otherwise I would spend much longer in there.
I don’t wanna get in but once I’m in I don’t wanna get out
Yup. This.
Hits right at home
Same. Sometimes I need to force myself to get in. Within secs, I wonder why I had to override my resistance, and if I will do it again tomorrow. I will do it again tomorrow.
I don’t get why the ADHD part of my brain doesn’t learn that shower=good. Perhaps it’s because I envision standing in the shower as staring at a wall.
You mean my thinking cube?
I do my best thinking in the shower… I have amazing realisations and form incredible connections between relevant life dots…
I just have trouble remembering the outcomes of this thinking once I get out…
I’ve been doing this as long as I can remember.
oh man. you should try baths.
B…but how do I know when it’s time to finish?
thats what makes it so great. do get out before you pass out though.
Bathrooms are practically stimulation-less spaces.
Disagree. The water is perfect stimulation. The way it touches your skin, the temperature control, the rain sound, the blocking of all else. A shower is stimulatory contentment.
Ever try showering in complete darkness?
With music? 🤤
this isn’t solely a ADHD thing
lol OP doesn’t mention showering too much tho
I shower too little but too long
