Question

Asked for Male, 34 Years

I am a 34 year old man working at a managerial position in a bpo. I am married and stay with my parents, wife and my 3 year old son. I have a problem of washing hands frequently. I am so germophobic that I keep washing my hands with soap and water for at least 20minutes at a stretch. I also feel if if I don't wash my hands bad things will happen.
