I crank it up as hot as it will go. My skin is fucked but at least I get to be warm for a while.
I need luke warm to cold showers T_T else my skin actually will fall off and I will die from boiled body
Yeaaaaaa ... I try to do that but if I feel a single cold drop my body is just reflexively like " fuck that" and turning the valve before I even know what's happening.
Sounds very painful. Unless you have shit temperature as your hot.
The fire within burns hotter than the water without. If I ain't a red and pruny then it was wholly insufficient.
It's just short of painful if I work up to it but I've built up a tolerance to it.
Sounds like coffee or beer. It's actually disgusting but "you just gotta LEARN TO LIKE IT". 🙃
It's better than the alternative of experiencing even a moment of cold
I think you're overreacting to the cold but that's just me. Just gotta breathe through it a few seconds, then your body gets used to it. You shouldn't need hotter water than skin temp lol. I usually go a little warmer than that though.
For sure, but it's not something I can power through. I think there's something wrong with my body's ability to regulate my temperature. If I get cold even if it's just a little bit then I can't warm up for hours and I'm miserable. If I make the shower as hot as can be then I can dry off before I cool down below room temp and not end up chilled.
