Je suis mysophobe depuis que j’ai accouché

Pauline*, 32, has always loved cleaning. But so far, only one “little animal aspect” has become an obsession with the birth of his son. This muddy phobia has a name: phobia.

The covering of the cleaning mat is forced to cover, and the idea of ​​rushing to touch the baby by washing your hands can be used with gaps: Pauline’s maternity leave was not imagined. If the child’s arrival challenges all parents, for the pharmacist, fear and stress turn into troubled anxiety: his baby faces dirt.

A long-lasting baby

“I met Thomas* while I was in Kuved. Less than a year later, he moved to my house and we quickly started talking about babies. After a while of travel, we decided to start and we were lucky that it worked immediately! I’ve been craving for a baby for years; when I was pregnant for many years; when I was pregnant, we were with the angels.”

Pauline continued that there was no obstacle to pregnancy until… “In week 32, I started contracting.” This situation forced him to stay in bed for 5 weeks. “I think it was during this time that I kept knocking on the door. I was always at home, so I was able to prepare with the smallest details, even if it was sitting down or lying, we could do a lot of things already. In the long run, I could get up, I cleaned the entire kitchen, the sofa’s cushion cover… The entire apartment was screened. In a naked eye, we were told to clean the baby’s clothes. Suddenly, I executed myself. transparent

Nightmare of visit

My mania has been pushed to a climax since my maternity leave began. It became obsessed: I have been cleaning all my life, my hands are super red, I have too many gaps, I have washed a lot. My habits are gradually changing. During normal times I like to accept but use access there.

When I received it, I had hot flashes. Whenever someone sits in a chair, I want to clean the mat after passing. I know it seems crazy, but I dreamed of a disinfectant gas lock at the entrance to my apartment. transparent

Professional distortion?

This situation doesn’t stop there, Pauline’s discomfort becomes more in-depth. “When my lover came home from get off work, I asked her to change on the sofa and then go to the sofa. Recently, I cried when my mom sat next to the baby on the blanket in the garden…she was back from a train trip and didn’t wash when she came back. I know this fear has no meaning, it really goes beyond the limit. ”

I ended up saying something about it, I did research, and I knew I had phobia or phobia. I spoke to my GP, who restricted me to antidepressants. I refused: I am very happy, no! I’d rather have some meetings about contractions, which tells me about a specific anxiety disorder. Then I went to the micro fund and it worked for me. I think the source of this phobia comes from professional distortion: I am a pharmacist in the hospital. To avoid the spread of microorganisms is part of my job!

Then, the common period didn’t help, disinfecting everything with this mania. It’s hard for me to do a lot between normal and exaggerated. I also know that all these fears come from the desire to protect my son. But this is impossible for him and not healthy, I know! I realized that this was very contradictory. transparent

better

“What helped me was that the professionals told me that it would be. I think it would help me to get back to work and a more normal life. I’ve been at home for five months when I was bedridden. Once there are external sabotagers, it will worry me. Going out and changing my mind and seeing people help me feel better. transparent
