@notthefakeamber: Showering shouldn’t feel like an Olympic sport, but with Parkinson’s it does. My biggest battle is apathy — sometimes the hardest part is just convincing myself it’s worth the effort. That’s why I try to make it feel special: a little shower lamp and some eucalyptus hanging to trick my brain into “spa day” instead of “daily struggle.” 🌿💡 Still, it’s not all pretty vibes …the shower seat is a must, because safety comes before aesthetics. It’s wild how something so basic can become such a fight, but pushing through the small things is a win. #notthefakeamber #ParkinsonsAwareness #CelebrateTheWins #SpaWithSideEffects #ihateparkinsons
Goddamn, I feel all of this. I skip showers when I know I need to shower all because there are days I don’t have the energy and the apathy is real. I fear I will fall, even though we had our shower completely redone to accommodate me. 🩶

Started using a shower chair when I hurt my ankle (not related to parkinson's) and have used it ever since. Safety first and save energy where I can.

The sheer amount of effort required to do pretty much everything is complete BS!!

Same. Every day is a struggle...even though I feel better all day with one. MS is also fun
