Anyone else bothered by skin flakes?!

Anyone else bothered by skin flakes?

I am always thinking about other peoples skin flakes in the air to the point where if I think about it when I am eating I can't eat anymore. If I start thinking about it in everyday life I often try to hold my breath and get to fresh air quickly or cover my mouth with something I can breath through. I think it might stem from the fact that household dust is 80% skin flakes. I always think about all the nasty peoples skin that is entering my mouth. It is especially bad with tomato soup. something about the idea of eating tomato soup just brings this image of a ton of skin flakes floating in it to mind. does anyone else have this problem?

also- I don't think this is OCD. It doesn't interfere with my life THAT much i just really have a hard time eating if anyone talks about it or I think about it. Or if I'm in a room with someone nasty..

OCD seems a bit of an extreme diagnosis for this, dont you think??
