Dog poo

[Shopkinsdoll]

This is a bit bizarre but it’s def getting worse. I have a real obsession with dog poo. I can’t take my kids to the park without examining the grass. I need to do the same with my own garden. I examine the kids shoes before they get in the car/house. Everywhere I walk my head is down watching where I walk. I gag if I see it. It’s really silly. I couldn’t go to a car boot sale or any event that’s on grass because of this. Would the doc just think I’m odd?

I've read about others having this phobia - it's far from unique - so I doubt the doctor would think it odd. It can lead to ritualised behaviour, washing and wiping things multiple times 'in case' they have come into contact with poo (even if that's virtually impossible), similar to OCD. I think you should see the doctor before it escalates further - I hope you can get some help .
