We separate outside clothes from home clothes. The idea of going into bed with clothes I wore on public transport and uni makes me gag

Me too! I have my "going out" clothes and my "at home" clothes separate. I tend to wash my going out clothes every time after I wear them too. 

And I use sanitiser after touching any doorhandles of shops, do you?

@NatureLover, it comes down to the type of clothing if they get washed after wear. I don’t think things like coats or jackets would hold up well when washed too often. Those clothing get hung up on a rack.

I don’t use as much sanitiser as I used to, still use it though. I’ve been trying to normalise, but I probably am still one of those few people who carries around sanitiser

[NatureLover]

@creative_writer  Yes, I have a rack where I hang my "going out" clothes too if I don't wash them. Mostly I wash them, but not always - it depends how high my triggers are. 

I have lots of sanitiser in my bag and car and house. I also still wear masks while shopping too. 

Do you wear masks in the bus?

[creative_writer]

@NatureLover if only coats and jackets could survive more frequent cleaning, I would wash more often. Base layers get washed.

I was literally the only person I saw the other evening during a social event sanitiser. My family did ask for some of my sanitiser though. I didn’t want to eat without first sanitising my hands because it felt gross otherwise. I know other people probably don’t care.

I used to wear mask on public transport but would end up nauseous, so I had to give it up. The mask wearing while travelling can make me feel migrainey and nauseous

Ah yes, that makes sense, although I'm sorry to hear @creative_writer . 

I think it's basic hygiene to wash hands or sanitise hands before we eat.
