I have a really weird problem, I'm not real sure if it'd be considered an eating Disorder of a such, or maybe OCD. I am actually scared of getting food poisoning. I used to sit up for the exact amount of time it takes for food poisoning to start kicking in and see if I was ok. I got so bad I wouldn't eat anything that wasn't pre-packaged, suck as a bag of chips, or a pack of crackers. I lost a lot of weight because of it. I almost think it's OCD, because I find myself asking people when they are sick if what they have is contagous, and certian questions about how they feel so I'll know if I get it. I lysol and spot clean my house and my car if I've been around anyone who is sick or says they don't feel good, then take a shower. I've never talked to anyone about it, because I know people will think I'm nuts! Any advice?
