Hey i have a real complicated question about handshakes,germs etc..can you guys help me out?
is there a phobia that has sometime to do with handshakes ?
idk it’s like i just get depressed just thinking about it
then i read online about how it can cause germs & how it’s unhealthy..then i get more depressed i grew up ruff & like handshakes is how we greet then a hug even in church..but as time goes on i became somewhat scared of germs so like now i have ocd..& i often get paranoid about alot of things that envolve handshakes..it’s making me look stupid & un-cool i guess.
i often feel selfish because i use to carry hand sanitizer JUST to make myself feel good..but then i realize that every person isn’t freek’n out to get me or nasty or un-hygenetic..then i stopped i read up on hand sanitizers now are bad for you in the long run because it destroy’s your body natural defenses & it can call skin cancer & dangerous for babies..so then i felt stupid
i think i over think too much..& have too much time to myself to research & look up all these crazy things..i just want to live a normal life..it’s really weird like..it’s getting to the point where i dont even want to lift up grocery bags because idk where someone hand’s been..is this like another phobia ?
can i look it up idk.put it like this..if i shake someone’s hand i will think about it all day long until i wash my hands & then when i wash my hands i will think what if its too late..idk i feel like weird like i know you guys are like "well why do you shake people’s hand’s if you feel that way"..well idk i just dont want to be rude or ignorant over casual contact you know..i just want to live you know..& so much stuff going around it just get’s me paranoid..
so can you guys help (handshaking to me is like the equivalent of having sex unprotected to several people)..thats how i feel i guess idk..i guess because other people dont look at it like me..im always "what if this & what if that"..they dont care they go on about their buissness & think nothing of it..so thats why i compare it to sex..because after sex i always do the what if this & what if that..but i guess the person i did it with doesn’t think about it as much besides the fact it was good.."besides the fact it was a greet" & nothing else..
so plllllllease help me..i dont want to feel depressed or stressed out over this type of stuff..im already stressing enough
You sound like you’re really stressing and obsessing about this. Can you talk to a therapist or a counselor about it? This is really getting in the way of your life and it doesn’t have to.
For the moment, do what you need to do to avoid anxiety–wash your hands as much as you like, use a gentle alcohol free sanitzer, etc. People like Howard Stern and Donald Trump are very candid about their germaphobia and dislike of handshaking; they apologize and refuse to, saying it makes them uncomfortable. But I really hope you can talk to someone about this because it’s obviously an issue for you. Good luck.
