Washing hands

Do you ever get this overwhelming urge to wash your hands. I do when I go too the loo and if I use public transport. I have to hold poles if I’m standing on the train or bus and I feel gross if I don’t wash them.

Buses are definitely a health hazard. Imagine how many people have touched those handrails. I prudently carry some hand gel in my pocket just in case. ha ha

I wash my hands when necessary but I feel over conscious to wash all the time. Some times I ate without washing because it depends on my strange feeling or the risks I am thinking about.

I wash after using the toilet. That’s normal. I have Celiac disease so I also wash if I come in contact with wheat because it could stick to my hands and then I get it on my food if I eat later, it would not be good.

I wash my hands always when I “go to the loo” (so cute), and I don’t touch other people, especially hands, if I can avoid it. Any time I’m out, I wash my hands as soon as I get home. Not in a frenzied way, I’m not panicked about it, but I think it’s a good idea to wash hands often.

I carry hand gel in my purse and wet wipes :flushed: antibacterial. Just make sure you do not touch your face in public. After shopping, using public transport or eating or touching things.

I used to carry s hand sanitizer on me at all times.

I used it at work and out side of work too.

I stopped having one in my handbag and stopped using it but I still ha e one in my car and that needs fixing and one in home.

I wash hands after I go to toilet or before cooking etc.

I am not fanatic about it.

yah for washing your hands!!

I had a germaphobiac co worker… I wash my hands before and after I use the bathroom… he noticed and asked why… I said think about it… I know where my junk has been…in my pants… but I cant tell you exactly what my hands have touched… so I like to wash them before and after… his whole germ world exploded before my eyes… and now he also washes his hands before and after… I know minds blown your welcome internets… lol lol

Hand washing is a good thing.
In “Beauty school” we had to do manicures and pedicures. I always preferred to do the pedicures (feet soaked in a big bowl of ‘Quats’ for 20 minutes first) and when the teacher asked why, I told her people don’t pick their nose with their feet.
