What's the longest you've gone without a shower or a bath?

I've only been taking one every 12 days because I can't go longer than that. It actually starts to hurt, and when the water hits me it's like sand absorbing rain, it's not pleasant.
What's the longest you've gone? What happened?
I clean up down there, bird bath a bit, but that's it. I just wear extra clothes when I sleep and wear a robe so my bed doesn't get dirty.
I have no activity right now what so ever mind you for those that are scowling at the thought of this. I walk a couple hundred feet a day, that's it. I get my mail twice a week. I go to the store twice a month. Been this way since early december ( so 3 showers ).

As an adult? I dunno, maybe like 2 weeks. I was strung out.
And I can't really remember. But I've showered at least once a week since I got sober.

if you have to wear extra clothes to prevent your bed from getting dirty, that sounds like a good indication. LOL. I love water though, so i bathe and shower as much as i can. Baths are one of the best feelings in the world. Not unlike the comfort of being in the womb and is a primitive(best kind) pleasure at its best.

A week I'd say is longest without, normally every day or other day.... Get pretty dirty @ work and when I get home it's the first thing I do , is to get out of those clothes.... Into some ball shorts..... If I'm feeling lazy I'll just skip the shower, but my hair gets dirty fast and needs washing a lot. Chemicals I work with aren't something you want to bring into the bedroom, especially onto the ol lady. This is just me..... I don't blame you vandago if you're just in stasis or whatever and hanging out, hell no need to shower very often.
One question: You asked "What's longest you've gone? What happened?"
Man I might be off base as I don't know you well, if so apologies, but your post seems to hint at some sad times.... You okay man? You ask "what happened?" to lead to longest unshowered time.... Did something "happen" to you lately? I don't know man I could be wrong, I don't get a real sad vibe from your other posts, an insightful one rather, but this thread seems different..... Or maybe I'm making shit up....

I cut the fucking shit out of my right leg and was baker acted (for observation) for three days. In the state Florida, observation is three days. So they stitched me up... When I got home? I didn't shower for two weeks. It was so difficult for me to get into the tub, let alone shower myself. I could barely walk. I had to learn how to walk again. And when I did try and take a bath, it would be a long preparation, I was just like, "Fuck this." So literally, I took two baths within two months. I just couldn't do it. It was a three hour long thing. But it's okay! I wasn't in public at all for anyone to smell my putrid stink! Lmao.

I think I went 2 weeks while really affected by schizophrenia.
It's disgusting, it's really disgusting. Like 2 days is kind of disgusting, but 2 weeks, fark me.

No but I plan to someday.
I'm curious as to why you'd bring it up at that post. You think I'm a dirty hippie that doesn't shower or something?

I think when I went to the ward was the longest time I hadn't showered but I can't remember how long it was. I'm thinking it was like 2 weeks when I went to the ER. My hair was greasy. But I really have no idea. I'd crawled through mud and vomited all over myself earlier that day so I really don't know if I felt so filthy because I hadn't showered in weeks or if it was just because I was actually filthy. Once they moved me to the ICU the nurse helped me give myself a sponge bath of sorts.
And then when I finally got a bed in the ward I had a blessed hot shower. Fuck that was good.
So while I don't like wasting water either, I think bathing is therapeutic. I don't think it's good for your skin and hair to be washed every day. But the biggest reason I try to shower every other day is because I don't want to end up in the hospital and incapable of getting clean for days or weeks.

Probably a week, the hair improves but life is dirty and most "spider bites" are usually small infections, combined with the funk not for me.

Intuition seems to be your friend. I wouldn't sweat it though, I'm doing plenty of sweating myself lol
I guess society starts to really turn it's back on you the dirtier you get. Like in closed quarters it really offends people. Some people will make fun of someone for a pimple, I think empathy is just a more emotional word for acting.
Personally I hate the way colognes, oils, deoderant, and a lot of soap smells. I love the way shampoo and conditioner smell and feel, My hair is pretty much as good as a guy my ages hair can get, but I've been considering skinning it bald so I can just put some lotion on it and stop bathing entirely.
And who said anything about spider bites lol? I'm not dirty because I'm up for days strung out on meth, or forgetting to shower on H. I just don't see people face to face much, so why bother spending the money?
Also, it has deterred 2 stalkers!!!!!! And those were not in my mind at all! But wow, apparently when you want to OWN a man, and control every single thing he does because he will eat pussy for hours, you just can't fade into orgasmic bliss when I smell like a dumpster.......or can you? They'll never know cause after "HEY HEY HEY!!!!! HEY YOU HOW YOU BEEN, HERE'S MY NEW NUMBER, HAD TO GET A NEW FACEBOOK BECAUSE OF CRAZIES LOL" And I'm like "Well I stopped bathing, I just sit in the fetal position with my laptop and suck in what socializing I can before the big one hits, and I only get out of bed for occasional nurishment and to brush and floss."

I want to see.
I skip a day from time to time, usually my days off. I get dry skin in the winter if I take too many hot showers. Sometimes I'll just sit down in the shower and drift off until I drain my little hot water tank. That is hella meditational.

I hate the fact my shower is one of those single person walk in showers. Like for real it is tiny.
I loved having a tub shower to lay down and do that. It would take about 45 minutes in my old place and I would be in nirvana by the time the cold water hit my senses. I used to do that very regularly.
I have had a piece of glass stuck in my foot now for about 3 months. I can't think about much else other than it. I don't even know if it's really there or not.

Where at in your foot? I had a glass splinter about 3/4 on an inch long and 1/4 inch wide at the end go into the front of my big toe. I eventually had to push it through because I couldn't pull it out. Yeah, it sucked.
If you don't get it out your skin is going to seal up around it.
