Germaphobia, also known as mysophobia, is the fear of germs or dirt. People with this phobia may excessively wash their hands, avoid touching certain objects, or feel extreme distress in situations where they believe they may be exposed to germs. Treatment typically involves therapy to help individuals manage their fears and behaviors.
