I don't have anything that is pressing-pressing, but there's definitely stuff I should be doing. Instead I am laying in bed like an invalid. Help

Do you live in an apartment without in-unit washers? I live in a house and starting the laundry fucks with the shower’s water pressure and heat levels.

I guess my water heater is just big enough that I've never had an issue. That's a valid reason.

Older showers don't have a pressure balancing valve which adjusts either the hot or cold flow to equalize a loss in pressure on the opposite side.

Without this, flushing a toilet robs the shower of cold water and so the user is scalded, or running a washing machine or dishwasher does the same with the hot supply.
