Re: E Coli?
Hi Sadie
I'm going to respond in the way I believe you intended this post. No, I don't think you have e-Coli and I'm seeing a pattern here.
I'd responded to a PM from you the other night and then you were concerned that you MAY have touched a contaminated surface and MAY have touched your hair which MAY have then touched your lips.....I responded and laid out for you the entire scenario that would have had to have happened for you to even have a remote chance of getting sick....not sure if you ever saw it because you never responded.
Anyhow, even by emet standards the chances of you having a possibility of getting sick from either of these scenarios are long
shots at best. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, but if your anxiety is so bad that you are honestly drawing these parallels and coming to these conclusions then please consider talking to a professional about how to get it under control. I will be the first to admit that I can and do melt down when I think that I might V and I will fully admit that sometimes our emet brains will make wild leaps from Point A To Point B. What worries me is that it almost seems as though you actively are reaching for things, however unlikely, that could put you at risk.
If that's the case, you cannot live your life worrying about these remote,possibilities-it will drive you crazy. Please know I intend this message from kindness and concern, even if it may sound harsh
