[quote=Anonymous]OP I am 56. Showering and bathing are actually very difficult for me, and it is not something I talk about. In the shower I get dizzy and this makes me anxious. Then I get either chilled or over heated. My skin is somewhat delicate so it itches afterwards and need cream. The warm and hot water make me very exhausted, truly really trembling shaking exhausted. This makes it hard to dry everything off. Then I have to rest for a bit. Washing my hair I something I plan. I used to bath every day like everyone else, but now the effort is just too much, so I bath every other day. When I bend over to put on my shoes, I feel faint. Shoe tying or buckling is difficult at times. After about 30 minutes I feel better. I asked my doctor and he isn't sure what causes this. I really do not want to smell, but on the other hand, bathing is such a pain. So if your mom is going through this, you might want to be kind rather than ordering her around. I know I would not appreciate it. And as I said, no one knows this about me -- it is too embarrassing  and creepy.[/quote]
