Anytime I deal with water my hands crave water. I go crazy if I feel anything dry and I HAVE TO get them wet again. It is really weird and kind of freaking me out. This lasts for about 1/2 hour before I can comfortably touch something dry again. What's with is? You don't have to be a doctor or anything, i just want your opinion.

You probably have dry skin that feels uncomfortable. People have suggested some good lotions. However, I think the dry skin hands craving water is triggering other issues for you. You should talk to your doctor. It sounds like OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). This is easily diagnosed and there are treatments available. You probably want to get control over this before it starts to control you.
There is help out there for you. Good Luck.

I agree -- it's dry skin. Avon makes a waterproof hand lotion that is pretty good (I can't remember the name). Another hand lotion that I like is the Hemp Hand Salve (or lotion?) from Body Shop. Any lotion will do -- it sounds like your skin is very dry. (I have very dry hands right, now -- too!) You can also rub in a touch of olive oil from the kitchen -- which I do when I am cooking and I don't want to get lotion or cream into my food.

Sounds like a psychological issue to me. Consult your physician.

Maybe you just need to drink water and use a good mosturizer.
