Is A Strong Averseness To Bathing Related To A Mental Condition?

my sister insist on not bathing for several days (it s been at least 4 this time) and claims that the horrible lingering odor in the bathroom is from her medication. she does take a variety of medications. i ve looked up some of them and none of the side effects state there could be a change in urine odor. the family feels that she has severe mental illnesses and doesn t want to bathe
