lol, nou's got crabs.
Nah, they aint in there, and I wasn't even close to the kid who had lice. I also ran a flea-pick/lice comb whatever through it a bunch and got nothing, and scrubbed the fuck out of it in the shower.
Its psychosomatic itching cause its like on my arms and legs and all over...
and I do use soap, but only if I get really sweaty and gross... Otherwise it drys out my skin and makes me itchy usually. If I am not working out I usually use soap once a week and the rest of the week I take about a 15-20 minute steaming hot (like almost scalding) shower instead...

did you see the link that lilith posted? shit can infest your body too
i've had head lice like two or three times as a kid. always because of this one dirty bitch who ate her hair in my second grade homeroom class though. yikes.
anyways, use soap dude. every time. if your skin dries out, use moisturizing soap. skin solved. smell solved. problem solved.
Nate's a genius!

I do use moisturizing soap... My skin just doesn't like it, so I use it as sparsely as I can... I don't have a smell either... I use deodorant and bunch moisturizer on my face and head and arms and hands too.
Also no lice, I checked every inch of my body, my friends like quadruple checked their baby's body and it had nothing, we didn't see anything when we vacuumed the house either and we didn't see a single lice or nit. I also checked my bed and my clothes I wore. Another guy who was over there too before I came over also checked himself out and didn't find anything.
I think I am good.

right or wrong, I feel so much better for a proper shower every day, sometimes twice a day if it's hot & if i've been swimming or doing sports.

Yea, I usually sit infront of a computer all day and the house temp is like 67 during the day, even in the winter...
If I do sweat its at night when it gets too cold and the heat comes on and my door is closed. My room heats up really easily for some reason... In that case I shower in the morning right away. I hate being sweaty and gross feeling in bed...
Infact I need to turn off the heater in my room at my cabin cause its too friggin warm now!

Dude, there's like a gazillion types of soap. Find a good one. If you genuinely have a skin condition then go talk to a pharmacist. They can recommend a proper soap for your skin type.
Your body also needs to get used to it too. You can't use something for a week, say it's shit and then get rid of it.
Get a shower gel or something.

I just had a crazy revelation: a gentleman died just recently at work (on the 9th - 17 days before Christmas). Well he was a veteran, and was a POW in Japan for nearly 4 years. He wrote a book about his experiences called 17 Days Until Christmas.

Actually the stuff I been using the last month or two isnt too bad (I don't know wtf it is, my mom bought it and it was just in a blank plastic wrapping... looks like it has bits of oat in it or something).
The one thing I do notice though with all soaps besides drying out my skin and making it feel rubbery and gross, is that I usually get way more little pimples on my body after I use it (like the little tiny pimples on your arm or chest you get sometimes). WTF is with that, soap isn't supposed to do that! Also I notice an increase in the number of ingrown hairs I get (FUCKING PAINFUL) over the course of a year. It seems like every other time I shower and use lots of soap I get an ingrown hair on my arm or something that feels like a boil.

It's either bad soap that has bacteria growing on it or your skin is already contaminated before the soap has a chance to do anything. Most likely the latter. Not showering each day for most days will generally do that, and over time your skin just gets worse.
It seriously sounds like you might want to talk to a pharmacist and get a specialist soap or body wash, at least until you get your hygiene under control.
Trust me, you don't want a fungal infection
