You've identified another symptom of son Robert Morein's deep psychosis.
When he's off his meds, one of his psychotic symptoms is the emergence of an
OCD-type disorder. While stepping up his medication occasionally allows him
to leave the house (stressed), things like a fingerprint on a microphone
drive him absolutely nuts.

My wife Jane Morein and I were always hoping that as Robert got older the
major portion of his mental illness would moderate itself, as it often does
as part of the aging process. However now in his mid-50s, his illness does
not seem to be in any way less persistent than when he was in his 20s.
It is to our profound shame that we never committed Robert Morein to
longterm mental health care when we had the opportunity. It is our fervent
hope that, with the help of new and more potent anti-psychotic medications,
we can keep him stable enough so that he does no further harm to himself or
compete strangers.
