I sink too. All the way to the bottom. My mom used to scream at me to
relax so I would quit sinking. And I would gently drift to the bottom of
the pool so relaxed... Its physics. If you want to float, your gonna
have to fatten up... I don't have much fat and I do work out 2-3 times a
week.

I can float, but I do tense up and then sink. I don't feel safe
because lots of people who can float still drown. I am scared of
drowning, and sort of liked it when I was fat, because I felt much
safer.

I've also been to the Dead Sea. Can't remember the feeling except I
think that it was almost like being in a beanbag chair instead of
water. I'm sure if someone held you vertical with your feet pointing
up, your head would go under the water, but short of that, you're not
going to drown or even get your head under water. You can even roll
over.

Just don't wipe your eyes with your wet hands until you're rinsed off
well in the outdoor showers.
