Really afraid of going to Bathroom in home because I feel my cloths , hair will be touched with the toilet seat and I will get contaminated. Although I know that it doesn't happen but still I feel the urge to wash my arms along with hands ,hair.I am also afraid of going near dustbin because when I am near to dustbin I feel as if I have touched it.
