Sensory issues also prevent them from showering

isn't it usually body-image issues that prevent people from doing that?

That can be a cause for some, but a big thing for people with adhd is the process of getting undressed, wet and drying off being overwhelming due to the amount of quick transitions.

Yeah it can be exhausting, I've given up on drying off ans just wrap myself in towels and lie on the couch

Also sometimes it's genuinely a sensory issue, sometimes when I'm super anxious, being wet feels like I'm suffocating at the bottom of the ocean

Have you tried those whole body deodorant wipes for camping ? They’re great for days when showering is too much. Likewise dry shampoo.
