kathleenclerkin :

Ohh this was soo triggering 😳😳😂

ಠ_ಠ🍉 :

Idk if anyone else can relate but I view everything as “my germs” and “other germs” and they cannot mix. I am okay with “my germs” but no one elses, I feel gross touching most things or people but

Colina :

I would wash my hands after touching the jar😭

I️scrolled SO fast after you put your hand in the jar 😩😩😩

MamaM💗💙 :

I went and picked up a box with a bed frame in it brand new from Facebook marketplace and the hour drive home my hands were bothering me until I was able to wash them. Literally felt disgusting!!

Lexi :

That was traumatizing

Elizabeth :

If someone shakes my hand I feel like it’s burning until I can wash them.

Amanda More256 :

is ocd just a fear of germs and grime or a compulsive need to repeat the same tasks everyday on order to reduce anxiety

It’s not always washing hands I can feel like this and washing isn’t enough so I use a fork or a spoon to eat a crisp packet as the outside of the

slagosaurus ིᖭ༏ᖫྀ :

I don't know if this is the same, but I can't cleam mess that isn't mine because I know what my mess is. I can't wash things other people have eaten(1

_rach430 :

I have ocd. My issue is more when things are where they shouldn’t be or I don’t expect it

Caroline :

For me it’s more like the jam is on everything else

Elizabeth :

I literally can't eat something if it hasn't been washed at least 5 times and untouched by anything or anyone... it's exhausting

Kelly :

No diagnosis here but when I hear someone open the fridge or boil the kettle the first thing I think is ‘I hope their hands are clean’ 😬

🦋 :

This made me nauseous

EstLux :

Husband had ocd as a kid, never had it after. I’ve been with him 13 years and never saw any of it. Now pandemic made it come out full blown
