I feel betrayed that so few of y'all are choosing the bath so far. MISSING. OUT.
@QueerMatters
My bath is the centerpiece of my morning routine. Even before my realization I told people that for me it was like how other people need their coffee in the morning.
@QueerMatters I'm a sauna autist! 
@QueerMatters showers for regular hygiene, baths for relaxation and for warming up when I get too cold (hot water in all forms, yay!)
@QueerMatters as a bath autist, I love being hugged by hot water. But it's a lot of water so I try to replicate the feeling in the shower by making it flow on my skin a certain way
@QueerMatters i like both. broadly speaking a shower is best in the morning and a bath at night. probably not on the same day?
@QueerMatters It would appear I'm in the small third lol
@QueerMatters I don't think it's the bath's fault, but it makes me want to lay down and nap and I cannot do that with a bath. :(
@QueerMatters I am not anymore a bath autistic since I live in Canada as I can’t immerse entirely my body in water (except for the head of course). i hate so much these too small baths. πŸ˜‚

@QueerMatters

I'm a post water phobic autistic. I love being in the water, but I hate being wet afterward. I love baths, but I cannot stand getting out of the tub. I hate the sensory chaos of showers.it's just too much coming at me. I like to swim when it's hot and windy so I dry off quick. It's worse in the winter. In the summer at least evaporation in the heat is cooling. I struggle with this always, but I also don't like being smelly. Lol.

Even though I hate it, I tend to shower most often because it gets things over quickly.
