    Germs are not that bad and they are impossible to get 100% rid off and actually if you did get 100% rid off them you would die funny isnt it...

    Well, there's 10 "germ" cells to every 1 human cell in your body. Good luck getting rid of those.

    My mom has OCD. She would always wash her hands. Her hands would be so dried out they'd bleed, it looked painful. I can tell you it's no way to live. I'm sure you know that already though. Don't let it get any worse!

    Only if your anxiety about it is within normal ranges.
    If it goes up beyond level 2, you have a phobia.
