"I’ve been trying to motivate myself to have a shower for the last forty-five minutes, but so far all I’ve managed to do is get my underwear out of the drawer and lie back down on the bed. Having a shower isn’t just having a shower. It’s picking out what I’m going to wear, getting undressed, turning the taps, washing my hair, turning off the taps, drying my hair, drying my body, getting dressed and getting ready to leave the house. It’s too many steps."
