i am neurotic.

When I brush my teeth I count each stroke; if I do not do this my family will die.

Every time I brush my teeth, after applying the toothpaste to my toothbrush, I have to lick it before commencing the teeth brushing.

I have no problem with hair, unless it’s not attached to someones head, then it really disgusts me.When it gets on the soap I can’t just pick it out, the thought of that hair will follow me while I use that soap, I have to throw it out,with gloves. I just can’t stand to touch it.

Before I go for a swim in my pool by myself I must always clean it with the pool cleaning net thing. I have to do it three times at least and if when I’m swimming I see a bug or leaf I have to do it all over again. If I swim with people, I just jump in and don’t care at all.

I’m not a clean freak… But every night when I get ready to go to bed, I always get a brand new bath towel. The “old” towels were only used once, but i just HAVE to get a new one. My mom ends up complaining that she can’t keep up with the laundry for some reason and there are no more towels half way through the week..

I must change the sponge every time I do the dishes. I hate sponges, and our dishwasher is broken. It makes me gag, and I’d rather leave the dishes in the sink for a week before I use an old sponge. Even though that has probably more germs sitting there.

I cannot brush my teeth in a shared bathroom. For the past 3 months I’ve brushed my teeth in my room and spat into bottles

When I shower (even at home) I can not shower without my “shower shoes”. I also refuse to take a Bath. It grosses me out! I hate touching tiles and I feel dirty if I do. If my washcloth touches the tile while I am showering, I feel dirty and have to run it under really hot water!

Whenever I take a bath, I have to clean out the whole bath tub with some kind of cleaner.

I have to rip the last square off of the toilet paper roll before wiping. It bothers me that in public places some dirty people might touch it and then I am putting it you know where. DISGUSTING!
