I know there are some notepads that divers use but I was more hoping for something specifically for the shower that I could maybe stick to the wall like a waterproof whiteboard maybe? I’ve had no success searching online unfortunately.

      Hypersensory Autism, in my case. But both are relatively common, so could be what it is in many peoples cases here. For me a shower is so much sensory input, I am basically forced introspective. Takes alot of willpower to keep awareness and move to the next thing on the checklist.

        2 ideas, if they suck feel free to move on.

        1. Try laminating your routine and affixing it to the shower wall using preservation tape.

        2. Keep the water for just rinsing: I only turn on the water to get my scrubber and me wet, then turn off the water and lather myself up with soap and shampoo. Then I use it to rinse off again.

          Hehe, honestly, I kind of enjoy the forced introspective time. Forced is a harsh word, but introspectiveness is kind of nice. I don’t really fight it all that hard, hehe. I do conserve water if we are in tough water times locally, but otherwise, I just make sure I have an hour free before I go in.

        That must be difficult. Glad you’ve found a solution to make it work, and I’m sorry things I take for granted are that big of an obstacle for others
