I'm not germ phobic and I worry that manufacturers and advertisers are making people unnecessarily worried about germs. There are many antibacterial products on the market, and we are told that there are more bacteria on our kitchen work tops than on our toilet seats - no mention as to which of these bacteria are most harmful. If everyone starts using these antibacterial products (I avoid them) we will end up with no natural resistance and eventually something that is now relatively harmless will become harmful to us.
Sorry for long winded answer - but this is a subject I have an opinion about, as I expect you guessed.

You'd be surprised how many people are in your company.
Germ Phobia can be a good thing.
The air and water are polluted.
Wash your hands as many times as you like,
just remember to rub lotion on them.
Stay away from second hand smoke.
Even the parks are changing laws to make it illegal
to smoke while there.
If you encounter dust, go to another place.
If it's dust in your home, wear a doctor's mask.
If doctor's wearing masks are germ phobia, it
can't be all that bad.

A germ phobia is what you have. Germphobic is the word you are looking for. The second sentence - "i think im getting worse as i get older?" is not a question; it is a statement with a question mark on the end.

I think you have grammarphobia.

Not at all...

Being a sane, non-anal-rententive, wise, smart, and well-adjusted person...

I know that your body is mostly microbes...(get a college education please...)

And your body has defenses against harmful germs...(did you know that most of the bio-mass of your own body is not "you?"

Most of the mass of your body is "other" lifeforms....There are more microscopic organisms that make up your body than there is your own "flesh," and even your own DNA has "virus" DNA intertwined in it...

So get used to it...what's wrong with it...stop being so weird about it...

What's WRONG with you, anyway...?

Stop thinking about stuff you can't do a darn thing about....Science has determined (true fact) that you're harming yourself by "disinfecting" everything, and trying-but-failing to make your environment "germ-free..." Your immune system is actually "benefitted" from exposure to a wide range of microbes...it's like a muscle...it needs exposure to these things so it can "recognize" and code your defenses against them in a strong way...so that people like me...don't ever get sick, because our immune systems are "ready" and "strong" from use...

Get it? Got it? Good...now that you know the facts...stop worrying...control your dumb impulses and phobias...stand tall...be proud...be courageous...be human...show some backbone...be tough...don't be a wussie...

germophobes are the ones that make themselves susceptible to the major bugs, because by sterilizing and purifying everything you come in contact with, your immune system does not toughen up by fighting off the small things. I have worked in a hospital for over ten years, and I rarely get sick, and I have direct patient contact with sick people all day

However... I will say, that if you absolutely MUST take antibiotics, finish them ALLLLLLL
