Too many showers?

I take atleast 2 showers a day, sometimes even three or four. It's not that I think I get dirty, or I feel like I may smell it's more like a mental thing. Like if something happens bad, like I get a text with bad news or someone says something to me that's shocking I get in the shower. When I'm in there I don't realy think about the problem, I actually just go through the procedure I have in the shower. Like I'll wash my hair, shave, and wash. When I get out I feel more relaxed. Even when I have free time and I have nothing to do I'll get in the shower. Is this normal?

    I always take baths to relax, maybe a few a day sometimes. It just depends on my stress level.

    The act of showering may have a similar mental effect to hand washing. Check this study out:...http://m.npr.org/news/front/126558837

    Well, my head always feels clearer after showering, but I'm not obsessed or anything. You should see a doctor.

    I think it is probably like OCD. Maybe you should try cleaning other things aside from your self, that would probably be easier and actually more productive. I know alot of people that clean when they get news of change because it is like rejuvenating or something.
