19 Ways To Tell If You Are A Germaphobe - by Heather Newman BuzzFeed Community November 28 2017, 1 Comment

At NueVue we have all your germaphobe or OCD issues covered:

Our beautiful, stylish handcrafted cases are made to fit your iPhone precisely, keeping your phone safe whilst it is in the case.

Our high grade microfiber will keep your screen clean every time you slide your phone in and out of the case.

The same microfiber interior is infused with BioCote technology, which is also used in leading hospitals to kill bacteria.

Our cases are available in high quality vegan leather or top grain napa leather.

This world is just a breeding place for contagious germs. Take it from someone who considers herself a germaphobe. By Heather BuzzFeed

Do you have mysophobia?

en.wikipedia.org / Via giphy.com

Mysophobia is a pathological fear of contamination and germs. It’s also known as germophobia. If you’re not sure, keep reading to see if you have a slight case of germ paranoia (I know I sure do).

1. You die a little inside when someone sneezes without covering their mouth.

giphy.com / Via NBC

COVER YOUR DAMN MOUTH GERM SPREADER,

2. You probably own at least 50 pocket hand sanitizers.

multivu.com

You have one on you at all times, obviously, and yes you do frequently lather up to try and protect yourself from festering germs.

3. When someone sneezes in public you want to run and hide.

giphy.com / Via TLC

Mama June sneezes an awful lot on TLC’s Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, which actually makes me gag.

4. Lysol is a household necessity.

schoolcounselorsfriend.blogspot.com / Via CBS

Doesn’t everyone feel better after spraying Lysol on doorknobs after guests leave?

5. You really hate unnecessary physical contact.

weheartit.com

Ugh, gross. Can’t you just email this handout to us?

6. Handshakes make you anxious.

inthelandofgifs.tumblr.com / Via First Street Films

Don’t you know how many germs you can contract from someone else’s hand?

7. If your significant other was recently sick, you’re willing to keep a distance.

giphy.com / Via NBC

“Why don’t you just stay home and rest tonight? I don’t mind dropping soup off…in a hazmat suit. Feel better!”

8. You cringe thinking of the next big family gathering.

redcarpetkisses.tumblr.com

Because you know every single great aunt of yours is going to need to kiss your cheek. What ever happened to air kisses?

9. You’ve wondered how the seven dwarfs could continue living with Sneezy.

mysteriesandmagic.tumblr.com

Honestly, that guy needs to see a doctor.

10. You don’t mind someone canceling plans if they’re sick.

realitytvgifs.tumblr.com / Via Paramount Pictures

Let’s face it, you would rather stay home alone than be near them.

11. You’re not into being licked in the face by animals.

Via youtube.com

Your dog is adorable. You love it more than most people, but you’d prefer it if puppy’s tongue stayed away from yours.

12. You definitely don’t share food with others.

giphy.com / Via Buena Vista Distribution

Your germs are mixing into my food and will then mix with my germs? Keep to your own plate please.

13. And you won’t be sharing a milkshake anytime soon.

littlelovelythoughts.tumblr.com / Via Paramount Pictures

It doesn’t matter if there’s two straws it’s still gross.

14. You dread airplanes.

emaxhealth.com

Not because you’re afraid of flying, but because you’re trapped with everyone else and their germs.

15. And public transportation really grosses you out.

giphy.com / Via Twentieth Century Fox

Do you know how may people have held that subway pole or who sat in this cab last?

16. Soaking in a hot tub is not your idea of a good time.

dvdverdict.com / Via NBC

Do you know how many festering germs are swimming around in that water with you?

17. And you try to stay clear of public pools.

giphy.com

Everyone knows that everyone is peeing in that water.

18. You’ve had these sanitizing bad boys on your wish list forever.

target.com

It keeps your toothbrush safe from bathroom filth!!!

19. Public bathrooms? More like public enemy.

giphy.com

This one is too painful to discuss.

So, do you think you are a germaphobe?

icanhas.cheezburger.com

If you are, it’s okay! Just go give everything a good wash.

I agree with all of these but i have a few add ins of my own. I clean my devises every day with bleach and soap, when I’m cleaning I get bleach on my hands on purpose and once when my friend was over she was sitting on my bed and touching my stuff and i kind of died inside and was extremly uncomfortable the whole night sleeping.
