I take a shower every other day and change clothes then.
In grade 10 I wore a coat with no shirt for 3 Months.. I Had Nothing to wear that fits. My growth spurt and depression made it hard to find clean clothes that fit. My parents were busy.
When I worked, of course, I changed clothes every day, but I’ll wear my lounging clothes for two days.
Someting like @Dutchess_III above. Try to at least look presentable though the hair underneath(not visible) was tangled as I could not be bothered to untangle the mess. I have got a bit better about it however.
I never wear clothes when I go to sleep at night. I shower once a day, and change my clothes then.
Like @zenvelo I sleep in the nude, shower at least once a day, and put on fresh clothes after.
If I’m lazy or the weather’s really bad, I might lounge around the house 2–3 days in the same sweats, but they’ve had a break while I slept, and I still take a daily shower.
As others have said, I shower and change my clothes and I never sleep in my clothes.
@talljasperman, if you’re depressed try to make yourself get up and shower and change. It might just help you to feel a little better. I know that might be a real chore when you’re really struggling, but perhaps having some key things that you force yourself to do will help.
When I am really depressed I can go for 2 or 3 days in the same clothes. Mind you that includes me staying at home and sleeping most of that time.
Are all of you answering the question as asked? I am just curious. Also, how many of you are talking about regular depression or clinical depression?
Sleeping in clothes: seldom, but I indeed did that, for some times.
I change my clothes ever day, but it might be from what I slept in to what I am going to sleep in the next night.
@anniereborn OK. Well, I’ve never been depressed so my answer can be tossed!
No. I mean, I’ve been blue, had a bad day, just want to go hide somewhere for a few hours, but not “depressed,” as in for months and years and it controlled my life. Not enough that it controlled what I wore or for how long. I always get un-blue quickly, once whatever was making me blue was resolved.
I’ve never been depressed enough to stop changing my clothes.
^ That, too. I’m thanking my lucky stars.
Clinical Depression really fucks with a person :(
