Well, a person who THINKS they are always sick is called a hypochondriac!.!.!.what you'd call it if you are AFRAID of getting sick, I don't know!. But you do DEFINITELY need to seek help!. If you are afraid to go home, that's really really bad!. I am in NO WAY saying you are coo-koo, but please seek help before it turns worse!. An irrational fear of people because of their germs will only limit EVERYTHING in your life!. I don't know how old you are, but it will effect going to school, work, falling in love, EVERYTHING!. This sounds almost as debilitating as agoraphobia, which is a fear of leaving your house!.
