Ever since Lo was born 2 years ago, I have become obsessed with cleanliness, and am constantly washing my hands. I see germs everywhere, and freak out if my pants touch the side of the toilet bowl. I constantly harass my husband about washing his hands as well, or freak out if he brushes up against the toilet, and it irritates the hell out of him and he doesnt want to humor me.

Now we have relatives staying with us for the next 2 months to help with #2, and I am experiencing anxiety about other people washing dishes, putting clean dishes away, handling laundry, etc., because I will constantly wonder if their hands are clean.

I know I am being an OCD control freak. How do I let it go? Is it weird to say upfront that I want them to wash their hands before they touch a single thing in my house?
