Lupus And Phobias?
Posted: 03-22-05 04:28am

I was wondering if anyone knows of lupus and any kind of phobias. I absolutley can't sleep at night and feel like someone is watching me. I feel so creeped out that I constantly look to find that something but nothing is there. I also suffer from insomnia, sometimes staying up til the sun comes up and then sleeping.

I also started to be extremly freaked out by germs. Cleaning glasses, bowls, spoons, whatever when i'm at other peoples houses. And even in my own home I won't go near anyone who is sick, won't sit where they sit and won't even use the same remote. I sit at the bath tub and rinse until every piece of hair or spec of dirt is gone before I take a bath. It grosses me out to eat in public even though I try to still do these things, i'm going through it a million times in my head. I even ask my boyfriend to put the salt or ketchup on my plate just so I won't have to touch it. And when in a bathroom, any bathroom everything freaks me out, especially the toilet to the point I have to stand up when I go.

Please help me if anyone can. I've had lupus since I was 15 in the year 2000
