Germs don't attach to fabrics eg hair strands for long. Most of them die straight away. It's warm clammy places they like. Eg palm of the hands etc. And I was drunk and forced myself to be sick down the toilet the other day to get the alcohol up so I wouldn't feel sick when sober, and my hair got all down the toilet and my fingers touched the toilet seat and my hands went down the toilet bowl, I was an absolute mess but I didn't catch anything. I wouldn't worry xx

But even if you did it wouldn't matter. That's what you've got to remember. I had a tummy bug a few months ago and my mum didn't catch it. She heald my hair out of my sick, she heald my hand, she didn't clean the toilet often, but she didn't catch it. And it was definitely a bug cause I know the person I caught it off of. And I know how I caught it. Her daughter chewed on a tube of teaving gel and I took it off her and put it back in the cupboard, and then I ate something about half an hour later without using hand gel. Her daughter had had a sickness bug and still had it. So yeah, the only thing you should wash is your hands before eating xx

Well I'm not sure really what to say other than it is just a feeling, and you aren't gross at all and niether is many objects around you. There is more germs in a womans hand bag than in the toilet

Well as soon as I got in I used hand gel and had a wash but there's no preventing illness, if you're ganna get it you're ganna get it. Unfortunately most bugs are air born xx

I’m so scared. Part of me feels ok and part of me feels like I need to clean everything off. Basically my sweater had a stain on it from food it was newly washed but I decided to throw it in the wash again. While throwing it in the laundry basket I noticed a specific type of clothing that scares me. I quickly put the sweater on top of the used laundry and left. My phone was in the living room and I’m pretty constantly scared it will get contaminated by laundry I’m not sure why but that fear started randomly. Anyway I had to walk past the living room to wash my hands in the kitchen because someone had to use the bathroom badly and was waiting for me to just throw my laundry in to go to the bathroom. Anyway I’m scared I went near my phone or contaminated it with my hands. I can’t remember the details fully either but I just remember walking straight to the kitchen but I don’t know. I’m really scared and I want to clean everything like my phone and everything it was near. The thing is my fear is real because used laundry is so gross. What do I do? When throwing clean laundry in a basket should you wash your hands? Do most people? Even if the article of clothing isn’t dirty? Because maybe my hands accidentally went near the actual gross laundry I don’t know

i finally moved in to my dorm and im with my dormmates rn, earlier i touched the string that my mom used to tie my bed foam and i feel like its from our house. i have a really bad contamination ocd especially to my own body fluid (semen), i used to touched things while my hand is contaminated with it back then and i feel like my family also touched those so i feel like everything in our house is contaminated with it. i want to move to my dorm without that feeling and sanitized all my things before going, but after that tie my mom used and touched i feel like my whole things and body is contaminated rn and i feel really really dirty and idk what to do
