Contamination ocd blood
I am waiting for a therapist and on meds....I suffer from a range of OCDs. Yesterday I was reading a book on OCD when suddenly I saw a red/brownish spot followed by a same colour smudge. My OCD immediately tried to rub it off or scratch it off with my forefinger and nails. Realising this I washed my hands thoroughly then returned to wipe it off with a moist tissue but then forgot if I washed my hands afterwards.....you see I'm worried about get the AIDs hepatitis A,B,C and other sexually transmitted infections viruses from it. I am 62 and I am retired

I'm sorry you are struggling with this and I hope you get the support that you need.
But theres no way that you would get any virus from this 💙

Thank you so very very much. So the irony of it was that I saw the spot and smudge on the page of the OCD book itself. So you're saying no way I would catch any virus from this?
