Lemmy needs a hide option. I am not a shower sitter but I do not want to downvote to get it off my feed. You guys will now live at the top of my feed out of respect for your life choices.

Since I was a kid. You’re the first person I’ve ever heard talk about it. I guess I always thought it was super weird so i never told anyone.

Jeez I read shower SHITTERS and came to laugh at all of the weirdos. Thankfully I don't have to write off humanity as early as usual this morning.

Sometimes you just gotta sit, it’s relaxing, it’s not quite a full bath scenario but not quite a shower, a nice middle

Generally only when I'm hungover.

Yeah, I do it occasionally. Bad headache or hangover. That'll usually do the trick.

Yes. Often. I love it, it feels…. Safe? Same as you, started doing at as a part of the hangover ritual; now I do it a couple times a week. It’s relaxing. Head hanging down, warm water dripping down my nose. Comfy.

Sure, best way to cry in the shower is in a heap in the tub.

I had an ex-gf that would sit down for showers when possible, and sometimes fall asleep lol

People don't do this sometimes??? I enjoy doing this as often as possible. I started doing it when I had some headaches and didn't feel like bending backwards (tall guy problems in a small shower) so I would just sit and let the water flow over me like I was being blessed by the water gods of headache removal. Haven't looked back since, it's so damn soothing!

Yup, it's like meditation for me. Helps me unwind.

It’s like the best combination of a shower and a bath! I also started when I was younger… I had to get up really early in the morning and the only way I could get myself out of bed was to lay down and basically sleep in the shower. It was soo relaxing but eventually woke me up enough for the day. I still do it sometimes when I really want to relax or am very tired.

Best way to unwind. Best way to get over a headache or hangover. I like to go from as hot as I can handle down to as cold as I can handle & alternate for as long as I feel I need. Magic.

Sometimes when everything gets too overwhelming I'll sit in the shower

It's relaxing but I lose track of time pretty easy and the amount of hot water I have is pretty limited

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

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I just sit right on the bathroom floor. Don't even care. I'm the one who cleans that bathroom, I know that shits clean, yanno?

Both my knees need replacing and my left hip is shot at too I have a shower seat so that I can shower when they hurt. I do find it's relaxing and many a time I've been close to falling asleep

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.

I haven’t done it in a while but when I did it was a way to relax and unwind a bit.

Now though I haven’t had the luxury of time to do so.

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?

Sitting in the shower is my daily decompression ritual after work. I have no idea when it started but it usually leads me to waste a lot of water.

You don't want to know how I misread that title. 😶
