Tumah

Question:

Bchvod haRav…..I put my phone down on a place that might have had old dried zera on it and then i touched my phone and then touched other things and my phone bumped into other things …..do i have to worry about 1) if there is zera on clothing that got touched or bumped into with phone or hands for davening and learning etc and do i have to worry about becoming tamei from touching any of these things as i normally tovel for tumas keri…..or is there enough sfeik sfeikos for all of these issues? Aorry for the bother but I get very ocd about this kind of stuff….

Answer:

I would not worry about it if I was you you. Just remember that the instigation of Ezra that a baal keri is forbidden to learn and daven was anulled.

I would suggest you read a very good book עצות והדרכה by Rabbi Greenwald. He is a religious psychiatrist who  wrote letters to the Steipler about problems similar to yours.
