Okay, ever since I was around 13 I was not able to touch the door knob. I don't know why! It's not the germs I'm worried about, It's more like the smell of medal. I just CAN NOT stand that smell. Or maybe it's the way other people touch it, too. With like sweaty palms and stuff. Why is that! Is it normal? How can I stop it?
This is weirdly hygienic. If I never touched a smelly door knob, I would get ten cents adding up to a million Australian dollars.
Maybe it' just an obsession but in a way you're right sometimes i think the same way too but i can touch them. Because you have to touch!there's nothing to do with it for ex. dont u use public transportation it is used by so many people too u cant live in this world if u are so much obsessed...
Smelly door knob?? wtf I've never encontered such a thing. Just clean it yourself or carry a specific glove for opening doors LOL My God!
May sound ruthless, but yes! You can touch that doorknob. Do it and see if you can go a certain amount time without washing your hands raw. This OCD at it's fullest, and you've got to slowly but steadily take it's power away from it
no this isn't normal for most people. It does sound like a form of obsessive compulsive disorder. Good luck.
my friend is like that, he always puts his shirt around his hand before openign door knobs
Sounds like either OCD or a specific phobia. Go see a psychologist who specializes in these - he or she will be able to help you stop this.
I totally understand what you mean. I can't stand that smell of the metal either. I'm not concerned with germs either, but I don't like to touch alot of things.
