Emetophobia, anxiety and depression - I overcame them all!

Lisanne Prooij suffered with Emetophobia, anxiety and depression for 11 years and has joined us on the Emetophobia-Free podcast to share her unique and insightful story. Lisanne is now over all of her mental health symptoms and passionate about helping others.
Lisanne’s shares her experience of overcoming Emetophobia whilst still believing that she was suffering with it. The podcast highlights the importance of the story that you tell yourself when you are working to overcome your phobia and how a perfectionist thinking style plays a bit part in keeping you stuck.
Lisanne’s message to anyone struggling with Emetophobia, anxiety or depression (or any other mental health symptom) is to focus on creating good mental health in all areas of life not just zoning in on your specific symptoms. Learning to thrive is the easiest way to feel powerful and get yourself over any mental health symptom including Emetophobia.
The podcast also covers why thriving isn’t just being happy all of the time. Inevitably in life there are difficult and sometimes traumatic events that happen and thriving is having the belief in yourself that you can cope with and get through those difficult times. It is not believing that you will feel great and happy all of the time - no toxic positivity here please!
Going through the Thrive Programme was so life-changing for Lisanne that she trained to become a Thrive Programme Coach and is now fully qualified and helping others to overcome their mental health issues. Lisanne is based in the Netherlands but is able to work with people worldwide online.

Emetophobia is the fear of vomiting/sickness: either yourself, other people, or both. Research suggests 0.1 to 8.8% percent of the population have a fear of being sick (Hout & Bouman, 2011). Emetophobia is a debilitating phobia, which significantly impacts your life: sufferers are chronically anxious and go to great lengths to avoid encountering anything sickness-related, which provides temporary relief but often results in a rollercoaster of anxiety, fear and exhaustion. Issues associated with emetophobia include: OCD, eating difficulties, anxiety-related gastric problems, phagophobia, tocophobia and more. Our goal is to raise awareness of this severe phobia and provide a solution for sufferers and their families.
You do not need to live with Emetophobia - you can COMPLETELY overcome it - just like all the people in these videos did - all the ex-emetophobes in this KZbin channel used the special Emetophobia version of The Thrive Programme to overcome their phobia. If you are emetophobic, or know someone who is, you can no doubt relate to many of the experiences people share in their testimonials. We hope this reassures you that you’re not alone, and that you do not need to live with this debilitating phobia forever.
The Thrive Programme for Emetophobia (also known as Cure your Emetophobia and Thrive) is the single most successful and predictable method for getting rid of your emetophobia. It has helped over 20,000 emetophobes around the world overcome their phobia.
You can study the programme at home by yourself with a workbook (currently being translated into a number of other languages, as well as a version for the Visually Impaired), a comprehensive online course, or be guided through with a specially-trained Thrive Programme Coach® (face to face or online). Whatever way you choose, the results are predictable, and give you the tools to overcome it, for good.
