I hate water, it’s so tasteless! I prefer to add stuff to it, or just drink something else.

I oddly enough found that the bottle and the flavor make a huge difference. I use a fun bottle or cup with a straw, and flavor with crystal light so it tastes enticing!

I don’t drink enough. I’ve had chapped lips since forever. I won’t use anything to stop it.

something i learned once is that sometimes thirst can sometimes feel like hunger, and for people who feel pretty disconnected from themselves, it can be hard to feel those hunger cues too. so i suggest whenever you can notice you're hungry, just always have a drink alongside your snack or meal!

I’m almost always dehydrated but can’t get myself to drink most of the time. I have water reminders on my phone because of this. I like water enhancers too

I don't drink water like I'm supposed to. So I also kind struggle with that unless the liquid im drinking has flavors to it
