I’m curious, does anybody else sit down in the shower. (That’s right not a typo. Sitters, not shitters)

This started for me when I was younger, usually when I was nursing a gnarly hangover. The warm water beating down on me was a solace and sitting just made it feel all the more comforting. Though I’m sure it’s not the most hygienic.

Over the years, it's evolved into a ritual, now my preferred way to unwind and relax. So much so, I’m building a concrete bench seat in the shower, with a custom shower head above it, as part of our bathroom renovations. (Similar to the pic)

I'm curious if anyone else has a similar routine. Do you find it therapeutic too? Any particular reason why you started?

I‘m too fat and clumsy to comfortably sit down now, but before life fucked me this hard I definitely used to do that as well. Just really comfy somehow. Like sitting out in the rain, which I enjoy as well.

When I was growing up in Jakarta, the downstairs shower was partially open at the top, so when it would rain (often) you could just shower in the rain. It was absolutely lovely and the tile work was well done so sometimes I would just lay naked on the floor in the rain and bliss out. I still (when possible) will just lay down in the rain.

In the rain? Seems cold haha
