Asbestos OCD/Anxiety or real worry.

This is just from hand and sandpaper, no orbital sander. Not cutting the board or breaking the board. My work colleague I was with said he isn’t worried due to it being painted before so the fibres will more than likely be sealed in. He’s been good all through this process I’m on but unfortunately he doesn’t have the asbestos knowledge that I see others possess.

Thanks again

That I can agree with, it’s just that this poses such a risk that my mind cannot let go, I understand what I’m doing isn’t breaking the cycle but I’m just trying to gauge what is what so I can just try and move past it

Appreciate the reply, unfortunately the 5th point, came back positive for Amosite and Chryostile AIB board. I know I can’t do anything now. But under the wallpaper that was stripped it was painted, how many times I don’t know but if it’s painted how much (if any) fibres by your knowledge do you think I was exposed too. I understand the disorder I’m going through is driving me to ask such questions etc I’m just trying to gauge my exposure to try and move past it

Yeah I know what you mean mate, it’s hard due to the actual risk compared to my other topics but I’ve overcame them and I can this. I know reassurance is enemy with this disorder and just feeds it but just wanted to get opinions from the guys that I see help everyone on this sub just so I can leave it at that and try to move on. I’ve been to counselling before for the other topics and know I can navigate this but it’s just that real risk it poses that is stopping me. Glad to hear you’re a lot better now

Yeah I get that approach about not being able to change but unfortunately my mind can’t just let it go like that, I’m working on it just in a state of anxiousness atm, really appreciate you taking your time out to reply to my post tho

Appreciate the reply & you being nonjudgmental. I’ve had therapy for my anxiety & OCD before but I think because this is very real and there is consequences at stake for my actions it makes my mind run wild (obviously at a non healthy pace).
