bathroom OCD


Question Posted Tuesday August 29 2006, 4:47 pm

okay i have pretty bad ocd, but my bathroom ocd is the worst. this might sound weird/gross, but when i use the bathroom, i have to squat/stand to go. i've been doing this for months/years & now suddenly i cant go! i dont know if its a mental thing, but i cant go unless i sit down. i don't just sit down [obviously cause i have ocd]. i wipe the seat & try to squat as much as possible, but i just cant. what is this!! what else can i do so i don't get germs. im scared of it.

thanks!!

First of all, be aware that a toilet seat is not the germ-infested horror that it may seem to be. Porcelain and plastic just isn't that hospitable an environment for bacteria or viruses, and exposure to the air is also a pretty major germ-killer.

That having been said, I recommend that you carry one of those little bottles of antibacterial lotion with you. It's not just for your hands, if you get my drift!

I know how you are feeling, I have OCD too. You should buy those seat protectors you sometimes find in public restrooms & use those so you can sit on them! Here are some websites that have them:
