Hand washing
Also…. Noticing my hands are aging big time but I can’t stop washing them all day long. Any tips? They’re so dry and gross.

They’re dry because you’re washing your hands too much and you’re aging your skin. Start off by only washing your when you touch the floor, raw meat, your shoes, after you go to the bathroom—the obvious reasons. And you only wash them ONCE for the CDC’s recommended 20 seconds. You have to put your foot down and say no when your OCD says to go wash your hands again. You have personal agency; use it 👏🏻
I responded to you but had to edit it and then it posted separately. It’s the comment under yours.
Oh sorry washing hands 🙌 is hard.
It really is 😩
I am washing my hands after all that, yes. But on top of it, I have 6 kids in the house. Two of them have food allergies (that are different from the other ones) So, I’m constantly washing my hands while I’m making meals because I’m afraid of cross contaminating them and killing somebody. Every time I touch a surface or have to grab something new from the fridge,I wash my hands. And I don’t know where to cut down .
