You know this is embarrassing to admit, but for MANY years I had issues with hygiene. I would bathe, but HATE washing my hair and lie to my mom about not washing it and forget deodorant. I have no idea why, but I didn't take good care of myself.

But I think with a combination of therapy that has changed. I now wash my hair every other day and bathe twice and never forget deodrant.

But the thing is I STILL don't look forward to washing my hair, it is such a chore even though it only take a few minutes.

I really can't explain it. Maybe it is just laziness...I don't really know. But now that I have made washing my hair a routine I now do it regularly. I think it is about making it part of your routine. I know I tend to freak out when my mom or anyone asks me to do things that I feel I shouldn't do at that time or day.
 
I'm on the fence about the water phobia issue with Lolcows & hygiene. I used to be aquaphobic as hell. If I couldn't see and feel the bottom of where the water was at, I wasn't getting into it. Period. That being said though, I hate being greasy and stinky and actually love bubble baths.
 
Who you're around, how long, and how close you are to those people. Sometimes it can be a learned behavior that results from immediate family. I'd say that showering wouldn't be as gratifying to someone who doesn't work-as opposed to someone who works. It's just a combination of all kinds of shit. Maybe they're just unaware that it's the normal thing to do.
