If I'm sitting in the shower I'm probably in a depression spiral

Try it when your feeling good. โ๏ธ๐
I would but I don't think I'll fit on the floor in a sitting position. Our shower is too small
Wouldnโt matter how small. Iโd make it work haha. ๐งโโ๏ธ
Love it! Iโve never done it unless Iโm feeling really sick or really sad, but itโs so niceโwhy not every day?
Sure, best way to cry in the shower is in a heap in the tub.
It seems like it would be calming. Though I feel the tub gets a bit gross for this.
Any chair recommendations for tubs? What about shower heads that work best to not drown you?
Iโm too fat and clumsy to comfortably sit down now, but before life fucked me this hard I definitely used to do that as well. Just really comfy somehow. Like sitting out in the rain, which I enjoy as well.
In the rain? Seems cold haha
When I was growing up in Jakarta, the downstairs shower was partially open at the top, so when it would rain (often) you could just shower in the rain. It was absolutely lovely and the tile work was well done so sometimes I would just lay naked on the floor in the rain and bliss out. I still (when possible) will just lay down in the rain.
AFAIK people in Japan shower sitting, maybe other nations as well
You can add Australia to that list ๐
I used to. More of a kneeling kind of position though. No idea why I did it... Just did it once, must have liked it, did it the next day, and repeat.
Kneeling hey? That sounds painful!
I couldn't think of the word I was looking for when I wrote this. More of a crouch. IDK why I said kneel.

Only when I'm sick, really.
I bought a nice shower seat for my spouse several years back so she didn't have to balance awkwardly on one foot to wash the other. I've used it on occasion when I'm not feeling super great and oh damn does it make a the shower that much more relaxing, at least if I can get the showerhead aimed so I'm not being pelted in the face.
Iโve got the perfect aim so it runs down my back and body, keeps me warm. And my left arm is free to use my phone.
