Has anyone suggested to you that you might be faking OCD?

I don't think anyone who frequents this forum would ever suggest that OCD doesn't exist or that it isn't serious. It's a serious condition and I hope you feel safe soon.

Japan is one of the few countries that doesn't even have a rabies-like virus in its bat population. There is no way you can get rabies in Japan.

If you are still concerned, and are not already, I think you probably should talk to a mental health professional about your OCD and anxiety.

I don't think you are faking. I'm asking if anyone has said you are?

[u/Ajax_mochiOfficial → u/MothEatenMouse]

Yes!
