How to stop and when to trust

UGH I'm so tired, why can't I just be a normal person like everyone else, now I'm still anxious about not feeling any cat bites even though I know I didn't feel any bite from a calm cat on February 20, no attack, no pain whatsoever. My last full course vaccine because of anxiety is June 30, 2025, but until now I've never felt safe from this disease and even the reassurance from my parents, a licensed doctor, school nurses, or here on Reddit, I still can't cope, and a simple headache is already a problem for me 😭 how can I cope with this because it feels harder, I wish it was just cancer instead of my health anxiety/OCD 😭 I'm really dumb and all my honors in school are worthless :(

Cat bite or it never bit me?

Pls read first 🙏

A concern or just an OCD

Hey so I am currently very worried about this because February 20 A stray calm cat passed between my legs and I know it sounds alright but the next 1-5 days I noticed a tiny red mark with no signs of blood and it never scabbed, was my case an unnoticed cat bite? I never felt a pinch or a clamp or scratch and I never felt something sharp or a prick going through my jogging pants and my pants had no damage as well...My doctor told me I don't need any vaccine and that it's not from a cat but I still remain worried, do I need shots or the cat never bit me? What are the chances of unnoticed cat bites?

What is broken skin or a wound

What is broken skin for rabies to enter? Does it scab? And does it need blood? How would i know if the skin is broken or just an irritation if I don't have alcohol?

Anxiety? Irrational thought o reality?

Is Google more reliable or should I trust the professionals?

Problem/goal: Do all cat bites get felt? So like, is it possible to not notice a cat biting? I mean, will you feel a cat's bite 100% or could it be that you don't notice it and there's an injury? 😭 Sorry, I'm a bit anxious, but does it hurt? Is it still considered a cat bite if you didn't feel the mouth or teeth and there's no pain, just a sting or prick on the skin?

Note: My doctor and school nurses said there’s no need for a rabies vaccine—should I trust that 100%? 😭

Google also says there's a chance I might not feel a cat bite on my legs, should I believe that? Tsaka never ako nakaramdam ng pain or prick or sting ir may mouth na dumapo sa legs ko and yung tiny red mark walang lubog or syringe mark

Broken Skin? Wound? Cat bite?

So I have questions...

  1. What in the world is broken skin even without blood or scab? What if I dont have alcohol to check for one?

  2. Can cat bites not be felt when wearing pants and using phone? No numbness.

  3. Is that video a wound or a hidden puncture or not?

Rabies Anxiety

Hey so I am currently very worried about this because February 20 A stray calm cat passed between my legs and I know it sounds alright but the next 1-5 days I noticed a tiny red mark with no signs of blood and it never scabbed, was my case an unnoticed cat bite? I never felt a pinch or a clamp or scratch and I never felt something sharp or a prick going through my jogging pants and my pants had no damage as well...My doctor told me I don't need any vaccine and that it's not from a cat but I still remain worried, do I need shots or the cat never bit me? What are the chances of unnoticed cat bites? I just need help maybe 😢

My doctor, psychologist and school nurses told me its nothing should i trust them?

After the cat encounter I eventually stand up from my seat outside that time and went in my day no complaints at my legs or pants and i never felt something stung like a wound after the encounter and nonpants damage 😭

Is it true all open wounds scab?

Im just curious since my mark never bled or formed a scab but is it true all wounds that are open like all animal punctures (not bats), cuts and anything (except burns) scab?

Is this a major concern?

So at february 20, I was outside sitting, then a stray cat passed by in between my legs. I was with a crowd no one mentioned I was bit even grandma and DIDINT react. After that I stand up and walked WITHOUT complaining that I have a wound at my legs. But 1-5 days later I notice that mark, it never bled or scabbed over was it from the cat? Did the cat bit me unnoticed? I never felt pain or a clamp or teeth or sharp prick sensation on that area. Is it a wound? Do I need a shot?
