Even just food safety type stuff. But, I did just want to offer my support by saying I totally get where you're coming from. I had the same issue in my last relationship and it caused a lot of tension. I hope you can find some way to resolve it. </P> <P>Katy</P> Sun, 13 Jun 2021 08:50:04 GMT Katyonthehamsterwheel 2021-06-13T08:50:04Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/ocd-and-food/m-p/31152#M5140 I have OCD around food. My problem is I can’t handle my husband cooking (we take turns) some thing he makes I can eat but he is the exact opposite of me. He eats expired food, handle raw meat and then rinses his hand (no soap) and I literally just can’t put his food to my mouth. Which means because we have a limited food budget I’m basically starving every second week. He gets annoyed with me asking him questions about the meals, how he cooks them and intentionally cooks stuff I won’t eat because he says I’m being ridiculous. Get it, but I can’t change that right now. Is there any information I can give him regarding OCD and food so he will wash his hands properly?
