Thank you so much for your reply, it’s really made me think, thank you again x

Hi, it’s me again, I previously wrote about my problem with bird poo, and I wondered if anyone else has had this problem, and how they got past this, any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks xx

Hi everyone, I suffer from contamination OCD, for some reason I have developed a fear of bird poo. I don’t want to walk by it, or past it, it’s stopping me from trying to get out. The birds seem to be aiming for a spot just slightly down from my front door in our front garden. If I go near it, it will involve a horrendous shower after. I don’t even want my husband to go near it. Help isn’t available yet unless I pay. I’m so fed up and depressed about this. Xx

Hi, thank you for your replies, it’s really appreciated, take care xx

Hi everyone, I haven’t posted in a while, my contamination OCD has really ramped up, it’s been really bad since my mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, my mum has always understood my problem and been an absolute rock, unfortunately now she can’t comprehend it the same at all. It’s so sad to see, but she is doing extremely well considering. For some reason as well as my normal fears, eg— dog faeces, cat faeces, discarded food, rubbish etc, anything black. My latest fear is bird poop, the birds seem to be gathering on our roof,close to our front door. I can’t walk by it, without needing to shower straight after. I can’t get anymore help at the moment unless I pay private, which I can’t afford to do.. I came off Sertraline and went onto paroxatine, but it hasn’t helped much. I don’t know why bird poop has come as my new fear. Thanks for reading. Xx

Happy birthday forum,

Hi, here I am again so soon, Ifeel like I have lost all sense of normality withOCD, my husband got some wet washing out of washer into laundry basket in our kitchen then proceeded to empty our kitchen bin, while the wet washing was still there in my small kitchen. I had a massive panic, but he wouldn’t rewash the laundry and put it into the dryer. Is this a normal thing to do .? Obviously it was horrendous to me, but like I said I feel like I don’t know what is normal living anymore. Thank you x

Hi everyone, I haven’t posted in a while, I’ve had severe contamination OCD for 35 years about, I got a lot better at one point, but then I’ve had a massive relapse. My anxiety is through the roof, my confidence is nil. The worse thing for me to see is always something black, for eg. a black mark on the carpet or floor, or on the doormat I have the initial panic immediately, but then the worst thing is I start connecting, like if my husband got rid of the black spot, then he could have contaminated his clothes or the door handles as he is going past them, and so on.I have had some therapy, then was referred to someone else, by the GP, but now they have said they can’t offer me any help, I feel really let down and abandoned. I feel my world is getting smaller, I don’t go out, as I’m too worried about what I might see, then this results in a horrendous long. shower .Thanks for reading this.x .

Thank you x

Hi everyone, has anyone been tested for magnesium, and if needed were they recommended what supplements to take. People have different views on this. Thanks x
