I've been teaching swimming for about 10 years and I can tell you, after all that time I STILL HATE COLD WATER! You will never get rid of the emotion tied to cold water (which is why you hate it), but you can make yourself more comfortable when first entering a cooler pool.First I warm up with 10 mins of slow jogging on the treadmill (in full clothing-sweatpants/sweatshirt... which warms my body up considerably. Then I strip off the jogging suit and get right into the pool. The water at this point is actually refreshing, even though still cold. If you don't have a treadmill to use just jog indoors/outdoors where there is space available for 10 mins.

Just jump right in. Flex your muscles as if you were lifting weights - slowly and with focused resistance.

i dont think theres anything you can do, so just swim really hard and your body will get used to the cold temperature...also, try swimming in a pool with a broken heater! one of my friends was purple, AND IM NOT OVER EXAGGERATING! the pool felt like standing outside when it was 40degrees F and a really strong wind! you probably are a lot warmer than i was that week! so just swim and swim and swim and dont worry, your body will get used to itIs it possible to cry under water ?
jump in and start swimming this makes your muscles generate heat which will warm your body up after a while.just keep moving around.
after awhile your body will get accustomed to the water.
Sometimes, it's better that the water is cold because when you actually work out, heated pools will get much too hot.
