Title: I can take nothing but steaming hot showers
Post by: ncba93ivyase on February 08, 2009, 06:17:26 PM
Seriously, if the water isn't warm enough to give my skin a mild burning sensation my breathing gets heavy and my vision fades and I feel like I'm about to die. What most people would consider a "warm" shower is enough to make me suffocate and start panicking in half a second.

it's really annoying if someone takes a shower/bath less than two hours before me, because the water always cools just about 2 minutes before i'm done (a shower for me averages between 8 to 11 minutes) and i have to quickly jump out or risk having my heart potentially stop entirely

what kind of showers/baths do you guys take befuddlement

Hot showers. Hot enough to turn my skin red.
I must be steaming when I step out.

I like it hot enough to give a bit of a burn. It burns so good.

I always use rather cold water for my showers. Though I try to go a bit hotter since shaving tends to work better with warm water. I take anywhere from 20-45 minutes for a shower.

My little sister takes baths that are so hot that my mom has to heat water on the stove to put in the bathtub since the house's water heater can't take that much.

I usually take lukewarm showers, they wake me up without being freezing cold when I'm done with it.

Hot tubs, hot springs, and the like are common and considered safe. So I don't think it is.

bcuz the bath is too small and the water would cool down if i stayed that long

It makes me relax. I let my mind wander. That time goes by way faster than you'd think.

I sit in the shower for about 15 minutes. I only clean myself for like 5 of that. The rest is for chillin'.

Oh yeah I like it hot.

I like to take hot showers that give me a mild burning sensation as well.

My showers usually last 20-30 minutes, just because I usually stand there for 15 minutes and let the water pour on me.

20-25 minutes, water typically pretty hot.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks in the shower.
Mine usually last 20 minutes or so, by the way.

Maximum to the point that I'm literally getting burns, clean myself, then turn it to cold and then steaming hot again, then get out.

And I don't even notice it most of the time. Sometimes I'll be ending what I thought was a short shower and be like:

"hey that was a short sho- WTF 25 minutes O_0"

Post by: YPrrrr on February 08, 2009, 06:43:11 PM
I usually take a 30-40 minute shower with warm water... the switch is usually perfectly halfway between cold and hot

Oh, and I can't stand hot tubs, because they're usually much too hot for me

I usually take hot showers even in the summer. Although every once in a while if it's really hot I'll use cooler water.
Title: Re: I can take nothing but steaming hot showers
Post by: Selkie on February 08, 2009, 07:27:33 PM
I turn the faucet all the way to the left. And for some reason giving it less pressure makes it warmer, so I turn ot all the way to the left and down about halfway.

So yea it's pretty hot. I hate when it's not hot.

But it's not like my heart stops if it isn't, it's just so much more pleasing, in the winter at least. In the summer it's the opposite.

My showers are between 15-25 minutes long, and the water needs to be steaming hot. My parents usually complain about how hot and steamy it is in the bathroom after I step out. baddood;

I used to really hate it when the water started to get even a few degrees cooler after a while, and as soon as I noticed a drop in temperature I would step out because it was unbearable.
but it's not like my heart would stop or anything
Thankfully, it's not as big of a problem in my new house, though, and I can almost always get a nice, long, hot shower without being disturbed by cooling water. hocuspocus;

Hot hot hot. My showers are 20-40 minutes long though. >.> So I don't bother going in if anyone has gone within an hour before me.

Sometimes in the summer I take coldish showers JUST to cool off, not to get clean or anything.

Also, I rinse my conditioner out with cold water sometimes, sometimes I don't feel like it.

I really like cold showers, but they are too harsh for most mornings, so i take warm showers.
Title: Re: I can take nothing but steaming hot showers
Post by: Lotos on February 08, 2009, 09:43:25 PM
Warm to hot.  I take anywhere from 20 minutes while rushed to 45 minuets.
Title: Re: I can take nothing but steaming hot showers

I don't actually know if it'll stop, but I can feel it slow down to a disturbing degree.
