Possibly the worst part is that my dad never washes his hands or flushes the toilet after using the restroom. I start wanting to just wash them, make them clean. The only thing I know is that there is something about myself that I hate and desperately want to change (I won't tell you what it is). Does anyone know of some way to make this feeling stop? While I really don't mind the feeling, a little boy going around cleaning everything in sight could get weird. It might be OCD (I doubt it, though), me trying to make myself "clean", or something else. Any opinions or suggestions on how to stop it are welcome.
