the dog had an accident in the house and my mom cleaned it up but knowing my mom she probably didn't spray disinfectant and i had to walk near that spot and i was wearing shoes and now im worried my shoes have tracked germs into my room and i feel like im going insane. im really mad right now, like im glad my mom cleaned that up but i freaking hate sharing a space with a woman who used to work as a nurse not caring about germs??? like literally how does she not care. she's gross and im sick of it. i wish i could freaking move out so i could have more control over my surroundings but im stuck in this hell pit of an apartment indefinitely

Hello there! It seems like it must be really distressing for you that germs might spread and be tracked all the way to your room. We can't see germs but some of us can really imagine how they can spread from one place to another. And they do, I agree. You mentioned she cleaned up the area but might not have disinfected it. It is possible that she might have felt that disinfecting it might not be necessary. Different people have different sensitivity to germs or getting infected. I can see that you wish you had more control of your surroundings where you could control how something is cleaned or done. It can be difficult living with others when they do not share the same perspective on things as we do, sometimes really frustrating too. I can understand. What did you do after this incident? How do you feel better after you come across such frustrating situations?
