Bathroom ocd
I’ve been struggling so much with contamination ocd especially when having to go/do anything that involves a bathroom.I feel like every time I use the bathroom I need to take a shower. And that’s exactly what I do. But before I get into the shower I use Lysol to wipe down EVERYTHING the toilet seat,the hand flush, the door nob, and the ground. I wipe everything down at-least 3 times sometimes more. Then after cleaning and wiping everything down i immediately have to hop into the shower. I am fearful that pee or something touches me. I only allow myself to use the bathroom once in the morning and shower right after. I’ve noticed this has also started to affect my eating habits as I try to avoid eating/drinking anything to avoid using the toilet. I also have a hard time using the bathroom after anyone else has used it. If i notice a drop of water on the ground my mind immediately goes to ITS PEEE ITS PEE and I panic. This is long sorry but I’ve been struggling and also haven’t officially been diagnosed with ocd since I have no insurance and am #broke but I am working towards getting an appointment. Has anyone else struggled with this? And has it gotten any better?? :,)
