-being cold
-being sleepy
-having dirty hair
Yesterday I was too busy to take a shower, so I got up early (which is making me sleepy) and took one this morning (which is making me cold--my hair takes a long time to dry) but I THINK it is worth it. Having dirty hair is triggering for me because my parents wouldn't let me wash my hair more often than once a week (and my mother still gets on to me that I wash my hair too often).
I hadn't realized the extent to which going out of my way to take a shower can curb the self-loathing thoughts. :blink:

I am glad you have found a powerful tool to curb self loathing. It is interesting to notice how simple actions can sometimes help shatter old negative patterns of thinking and feeling.
Congratulations!
