I don't know if I actually have contamination OCD or not.
I have read that the people who have contamination ocd mostly are washing their hands becuz of the feat that they will get some serious illness or allergy. But when I wash my hand I don't really have these thoughts. I just want to get rid of the dirt or the thing that i think is dirty. Sometimes it's so illogical 😭like if I am around bathroom and I accidentally spoke or had that air in my mouth, ik that once an air is inside you it won't really come out but I will blow air out of my mouth till i feel like yeah okay now I think it is out. And even while washing my hands it's not an easy task I will start first by washing only my hand and then I will feel like my arm got some few drops of water splashed on them. Then I will wash my arm too and then I will feel like I need to wash above my elbows too so now I will wash them and get my sleeves wet too and then I will feel like my shirt got some splash of water too so now I will wet my shirt too and this whole cycle repeats every single time. I tried telling my parents to take me to a psychologist and they think I am doing this all for fun. They scold me when I get my clothes soaking wet but they still don't care enough to take me to psychiatrist why don't they get that this is not normal behaviour. Idk what to do I will be first already wanting cry sometimes becuz of the hand washing process and getting my clothes wet (who even like wearing wet clothes) and then get scolded by them for it.
Sorry It went from asking if I have OCD or not too me ranting my frustrations 😭🙏🏻
