Alright, I am new to the site, and reading some posts on this site have made me realize I'm not alone. I have OCD and anxiety disorder.
However, right now, I'm obsessing over lead. And it was started because of Christmas lights (as they have lead on them). My daughter and I are living with my parents until April when my fiancé gets leave (he's in the Navy). I was hoping to be moved out, because my mother goes insane with Christmas lights. Everywhere! She washes her hands now that she knows there is lead on them (basically because I tell her to because of my 8 month old daughter), but my mind has a "story".
Like the Christmas lights have touched the floor at some point during installation. Therefore when my mother would step there, it would drag the partials of lead throughout the house. I washed my sheets. I pulled them out of the washer to put them in the dryer, and my blanket touched the floor. I had just washed them two cycles because of my fear, so I was determined to not let this get the best of me again. It's 2 am here. Im exhausted. But now that they are in the dryer, I'm paranoid that the blanket picked up partials and are now covering the sheets. AHHHH.
Any reassurance or advice? Thank you in advance!
