Is anyone else not affected by other people vomiting if its for reasons like they have drunk alcohol or pregnancy but just worries about food poisoning and stomach bugs? I could hold someone's hair back if they were drunk and vomiting, but if someone told me they had a stomach ache and felt sick, I would instantly have a panic attack because that could make ME vomit. *UPDATE* I've recently had stomach and acid reflux issues which has caused me to throw up more times in the last 3 months than I have in my whole life, and while I find it very unpleasant and I still get a little bit panicky right before. I don't think I'll ever truly be over my emetophobia, but I'm getting better. Maybe expose therapy could work for some people.

I have been afraid of throwing up since I was a about 6. I was violently ill with the stomach flu. I hate myself for being like this because my life revolves around it. I don’t have that avoidance of places but I start hyperventilating when we I feel sick. It’s only gotten worse since I was little. Literally, puking is the absolute worse feeling imaginable to me. I literally feel like I would rather die than throw up. I had to do a project on phobias for class and that’s when I learned I had emetophobia. I also learned about CBT and I begged my mom to look up something that could help me. She found this video, and now I am watching it because Im too frigging terrified to go to school because I had to emetophobia attacks last night. Thank you so much for this webinar, it helped.

Same with me i have hated and been scared of (partly other people, partly myself) being sick but only recently watched a video about phobias and it came up and i took an emetophobia quiz and it said i have a strong phobia. If someone says they feel sick i help them (like get them water, open the window, put tv on or get a blanket, but if they get a bucket and lean over it, i RUN, I RUN UP TO MY ROOM AND PLUG MY EARS SHUT AND TRY TO IGNORE THE FACT THAT EVEN THOUGH IT MIGHT NOT SEEM THAT WAY FOR THEM, THEY ARE DYING

If you find that CBT doesn't help you, you could take a look at IFS (Internal family Systems) which is very gentle. I am in this therapy now and making progress with my emetophobia. IFS has taught me that my phobia is a young part of me working really hard to help and protect me (as all distressed parts do). This has helped a great deal in softening how triggered I get. I'm sorry you hate yourself, that must be a hard thing to feel. A lot of what you say resonates with me. I really hope you can get some help.

I have never shared my story but if it can help someone then I’m willing to share. As a child my anxiety disorder developed and revolved around the fear of vomiting. At around 10 I became severely nauseated at school and I began to panic because I was not with my parents and I had never vomited without my parents with me. The situation escalated very quickly as I started to experience my first ever panic attack. The teachers at my school did not handle the situation the way they should have. I was horrified because all I knew was I felt like I was about to throw up and I felt super scared. I didn’t know at the time what I was experiencing and it was incredibly traumatic for me. The adults that were supposed to help me at that time didn’t. All I remember is a teacher scolding me. Then I’m in another room on the floor crying, shaking, and horrified. The school refused to call my parents no matter how much I begged and screamed. I remember even asking them to call 911 at one point. Eventually after over an hour of a none stop panic attack they gave in and called my mom. But they downplayed the situation immensely and didn’t let me speak to her. So in her eyes, I was fine…. I wasn’t. I don’t remember the rest of that day or the next or the next or the next. According to my parents I was house ridden for three weeks due to the fear of vomiting without my parents by my side, I was so afraid to be alone. I apparently avoided near all aspects of my life. I didn’t go to school, I didn’t enjoy any of my usual hobbies. Any time my stomach would as much as gurgle I would fall into a panic attack. I barely ate. The only time I left the house was to go to therapy twice a week, and my parents literally had to drag me out to the car and each time that was hell for me. I don’t remember that time because of the stress I went through. It took several years of therapy and working on myself I am now able to cope. It will always be scary and feel awful but, I have learned to have trust in my body that it knows what its doing and I will be ok. So to whoever is reading this, If 14 year old me can do it, so can you! I believe in you! You got this! Don’t give up! You CAN and you WILL take back control of your life! ♥️

BRO SAME! i remember feeling really sick in school when i was in year 3 so around 7-8 years old, i remember feeling extremely sick in the middle of quiet reading and i started having the phattest panic attack because i was so scared to throw up in school and not in the comfort of my home and parents, i remember standing up, running to the teacher and crying saying i felt like i was about to throw up and all she did was tell me to go to the sink and throw up (which was in the classroom) because i was "distracting the other students" so i went to the sink and it got to the point where i was crying/gagging/shaking and this caused the teacher to shout at me, and made fun of me for being so scared which made the whole class look at me and snicker to themselves, i eventually ran out the classroom to go to the first aid room and begged them to call my mum but thats when my teacher came in and told the first aid woman not to because i was being 'dramatic' so the first aid woman turned to me and said "whats your mums number then and i'll call her" which is cruel as hell looking back to it because they clearly knew my mums number, but me being young and unaware i thought they were actually trying to help me so i said a bunch of random numbers which i thought where my mums number, the first aid lady pretended to call the number and said "nope its not her" which made me cry even more, i begged them to send me home but they started to ignore me, and grabbed my wrist and took me to the head teachers office which she proceeded to shout at me even more for "bad behaviour" and she made me face the wall and i just remember sobbing crying out that i wanted my mum, but i repeatedly got ignored. i remember a few hours passed because the lunch bell went and she told me i had to get out her office because she wanted to go out for lunch but i refused to leave because of how scared i was, she threatened to call my mum for this 'bad behaviour' so i continued crying, she called my mum and i was just sobbing, my mum heard me crying and immediately came to the school to come and get me. and the whole time the headteacher was just saying "see how bad you are your mum is having to come pick you up" when my mum arrived though she saw how distressed i was and started shouting at the staff for not calling her earlier and they started saying "we asked her but she said no" but my mum didnt believe this and i moved schools a few weeks later. This is actually scary because till this day i always make sure i memorise my mums numbers (i'm 18 now) and i get extremely anxious everytime i have to stay in a confined space like a classroom which pushed me to become home schooled. and the fact this school was rated "outstanding" by Ofsted which is the education system. its crazy bro

My dad got food poisoning one time and I was awake all night listening to him violently throw up. That was about 8 years ago and since then I’ve become obsessive over expiration dates, thoroughly cooked food, and constant hand washing after touching food. I try to avoid raw meat and I actively avoid fish and seafood. I do everything I can to keep myself from getting sick. I get anxious when people say they’ve been sick or they feel sick. Even when family members who live a state away from me tell me there’s a stomach bug going around, I spiral and worry that it’ll somehow reach me and I’ll get sick. I’ve even imagined the germs traveling through the phone before. I haven’t thrown up since 3rd grade (I’m 21 now) and I even remember the experience not being that bad at all. Yet I still convince myself that it’s the worst thing in the world. I’m afraid of throwing up, other people throwing up, hearing people throwing up, even animals throwing up. Ginger has become my comfort supplement because it reduces nausea. It’s comforting to see that I’m not the only person dealing with this.

I can definitely relate, especially with the hand washing. I haven't vomited since 2nd grade (which was almost 12 years ago). I'm obsessed with checking expiration dates too. I'm fine if I ever were to vomit, but when others do it, I feel very anxious and want to run away.

honestly i think im more anxious on feeling nauseous than on actually throwing up. don't get me wrong i definitely still feel scared to vomit because no one wants to vomit. but it's just the anticipation of just having your stomach hurt and not being able to fix it or change it, i think i hate that more than anything. plus im able to watch and listen to other people throwing up and even the word im okay with, i swear its just eating and feeling nauseous and i hate it. it honestly started happening when i was eating at a restaurant with my aunt and i just couldn't keep eating my food, like i just automatically felt nauseous but i was fine after. then a few days passed and i couldn't swallow foods. i looked it up and many people said it was just like a fear of choking, but i felt like i wasn't scared to choke but i tried to believe that was my issue anyways. and so its been 2 months later and i realized i was scared of getting sick and feel nauseous, and throw up. now i can barely eat. its weird because when it first started happening and i thought it was a swallowing fear, the only thing i ate was chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and i ate it everyday for like 2 weeks. i don't eat it so much anymore cause im tired of eating it but with this nauseous thing the only thing i can eat now, without having intense anxiety are smoothies and frozen yogurt. don't know why at all but, eating anything else i get anxious and the anxiety just makes my stomach hurt and i know im not actually going to throw up because it just doesn't feel like the actual throw up since i threw up a few months ago due to a stomach bug but i still think of it and it honestly keeps me up at night. anyway stay safe everyone! we can battle this!!

Ever since I got the stomach virus in 2nd grade, I was terrified of eating apple slices (because thats what I had on the way to school before I vomited later that morning). I haven't vomited in almost 11 years. My fear has gotten better, but I'm still anxious whenever someone mentions that they feel sick or if I hear/see them vomit. I'm a little nervous myself whenever I don't feel good. I hope to overcome this fear because I want to have kids in the future. 💖

I’ve had emetophobia almost my entire life, and certain objects become associated with vomiting, which causes you to avoid them. I still don’t touch a certain blanket, and I hate certain lightings. I could barely say “vomit” without panicking. I’ve overcome it for the most part, but seeing, being around it, or feeling a little nauseous or just sick, I’ll have a panic attack. (Edit: Also, would you ever cover gerascophobia? I have that pretty severely.)

I always feel sick now ive gotten treated for several docters and dieticians and i avoid everybody thats ever vommited at school. I will start shaking and everythign if somebody throws up. Ive even avoided eating so i dont vomit at school or embarrass myself. Ive gotten very under-weight. Im to scared to ask my parents for therapy.

Every time I had to speak or report on class I always vomit... Even when I am doing nothing its just suddenly come and make me vomit. Im normal, I dont have physical sickness that made me throw up. Sometimes i dont eat before going or doing something cause I think I'll throw up. I think what I had is uncurable... I tried my best to handle it and think of a better way to deal with it but nothing works.

Totally feel you... same when having panic attacks I actually throw up that’s just scary. Especially bc it’s like one side of your Brain keeps telling u that u won’t throw up bc why would you rn you are not sick or anything and the side tells you that it’s just ur mind and anxiety but then the other side of the brain keeps pushing and saying no but what if your actually sick what if you will throw up in front of all these people and this side mostly wins. So the points of the webinar are actually so accurate if you rly think bout it. The negative side of the brain only wins bc the other side is putting themselves in defense and that’s the issue. I truly hope you overcome this fear and me too and all emetophobes it’s really tiring but I know we can do this !

Emetophobia is something that has controlled my life since I was young, before I even realised what I was doing, I had already started associating anything that happened that day with being sick or even feeling anxious about being sick, since I was in about grade 2, my school life has been effected by my fear, most severely since Grade 5. When I first started high school my anxiety about being sick was getting to an all time high and I was barely making it into school, I would go on a good week about 2 times a week the only thing I could ever eat was crackers at school because once my mum said that it helps when you are sick. I associated being sick with any sort of motion in fear I would get car sick. I eventually got so bad I wouldn’t eat at past 3pm in fear it would make me sick at night and it got earlier and earlier and if I skipped my meal time I wouldn’t eat at all the only times I cold eat eventually was 11:00am and eventually 12:00. My anxiety was so bad all I would do is sake and cry my bed would just shake and I would scratch my skin till it would bleed. My family tried everything to help me. I then stopped eating all together and every single thing in the world was a fear food. I didn’t eat for 3 days straight, I didn’t have a bowl movement in months. My mum was begging for me to eat anything and the only thing I gut put in my mouth was my chicken nuggets with Mac chicken mayo sauce. At this point I could get up to o to the toilet and my hear felt like it was going to beat out of my chest every second of everyday. Everyone was so worried about me, all I wanted to do was die, I’d say in my head ever single night to just let me die in my sleep to end my suffering. Until my mum called an ambulance on me. Long story short I found out my heart and kidneys were failing and my body was going to shut down and I was going to die if they didn’t help me. That was the most traumatic day in my whole life (I would not like to go into why). But that was the best thing to ever happen to me, and I got better I will never be 100% Better as my food associations have gotten so bad and so strong but I am working on myslef and I was diagnosed with arfid, ocd traits and found out I also had autism along the way. But looking back I am so grateful for what happened to me and I am on medication to help with my anxiety as now my new biggest fear is getting a s bad as I onc was and losing my will to live. I wish anyone with this phobia of a similar story a happ life and we will all get through this. 🤍🤍

I’ve had emetophobia for years now. Ever since I was in first grade I would go straight to the nurse the second I got off the bus because I felt nauseous (it was just anxiety). Growing up with a sister who has diabetes and threw up whenever she had high blood sugar was a nightmare. This fear is really awful. It’s been impacting my life so much to the point I couldn’t leave the house. This school year I’ve missed so many days, I had to be put on medication just to calm myself down. It’s so much more than just not liking vomiting. Certain smells, objects, and things would bring back memories of someone vomiting. I remember playing on the playground in elementary school and the air smelt “off” so I thought I was gonna throw up that day. I used to restrict my eating so much because I was absolutely terrified. I don’t think I’d ever wish this feat upon anyone. It’s impacted my whole life.

this is my story: i remember feeling really sick in school when i was in year 3 so around 7-8 years old, i remember feeling extremely sick in the middle of quiet reading and i started having the phattest panic attack because i was so scared to throw up in school and not in the comfort of my home and parents, i remember standing up, running to the teacher and crying saying i felt like i was about to throw up and all she did was tell me to go to the sink and throw up (which was in the classroom) because i was "distracting the other students" so i went to the sink and it got to the point where i was crying/gagging/shaking and this caused the teacher to shout at me, and made fun of me for being so scared which made the whole class look at me and snicker to themselves, i eventually ran out the classroom to go to the first aid room and begged them to call my mum but thats when my teacher came in and told the first aid woman not to because i was being 'dramatic' so the first aid woman turned to me and said "whats your mums number then and i'll call her" which is cruel as hell looking back to it because they clearly knew my mums number, but me being young and unaware i thought they were actually trying to help me so i said a bunch of random numbers which i thought where my mums number, the first aid lady pretended to call the number and said "nope its not her" which made me cry even more, i begged them to send me home but they started to ignore me, and grabbed my wrist and took me to the head teachers office which she proceeded to shout at me even more for "bad behaviour" and she made me face the wall and i just remember sobbing crying out that i wanted my mum, but i repeatedly got ignored. i remember a few hours passed because the lunch bell went and she told me i had to get out her office because she wanted to go out for lunch but i refused to leave because of how scared i was, she threatened to call my mum for this 'bad behaviour' so i continued crying, she called my mum and i was just sobbing, my mum heard me crying and immediately came to the school to come and get me. and the whole time the headteacher was just saying "see how bad you are your mum is having to come pick you up" when my mum arrived though she saw how distressed i was and started shouting at the staff for not calling her earlier and they started saying "we asked her but she said no" but my mum didnt believe this and i moved schools a few weeks later. This is actually scary because till this day i always make sure i memorise my mums numbers (i'm 18 now) and i get extremely anxious everytime i have to stay in a confined space like a classroom which pushed me to become home schooled. and the fact this school was rated "outstanding" by Ofsted which is the education system. its crazy bro

I was always scared of throwing up when I was little, if one of my cousins cought next to me I would just run away. Eventually it got better, but one day when I was 10 or 9ish, I woke up extremely dizzy and I couldn't figure out why. My parents were working, since it was summer vacation, and I remember it only getting worse every second. The world was spinning inside my ears and visually spinning too, but luckily I was able to call my mom and it calmed me down a little. But, a bit before she got home, I was puking water on the toilet, (I was so sick that I didn't eat breakfast) and we went to the hospital. The whole way throwing up, getting there was a little better, but until this day we didn't find out what caused it. I made several tests to see if it was something related to a labrinth problem, or something like that, but we found nothing. Because of this incident I got several anxiety attacks, nervous ticks, always checked twice on every food I’ve eaten and so on. I suffered for about ¾ years, had like six months of therapy (that didn’t help me much) developed gastritis, bacema even more afraid of babys beacuse they are inpredictable, (you never know when theyre gonna puke) and finally, got better. I use various ways to calm myself down, like listening to songs that have good memories for me, breathe slowly and try to concentrate on other things. Of course, they're still some days that it is a little worse, but in the end I learned that my dizziness is just because of my anxiety, and I'm on a 3 years streak of not puking once. I get axious just writing, speaking, seeing and the worse, hearing it. I get anxious when I go to places that I alredy puked, and do not associate things as good anymore when they're related to it. Even with little-to-no help, I got better, and learned how to control my anxiety. Even as young as I am, I got through it. This only proves that you can too. Talking to people about it always helps, and studying about yourself can help you to prevent those things. I never met or seen anybody with the same issues as mine too, so I’m glad I found this video. U got this >:D And fuck the doctors, they did nothing.

I barely graduated high school since I wouldn’t eat anything before or through out the school day which had me feeling depleted and then started affecting my sleep etc. I was 125lbs (I’m 5’8) when I graduated high school from having have dealt with this. Now 3 years after graduating I basically isolated my self to be able to eat and managed to gain 40lbs so now after reaching a healthy weight I’m ready to seek therapy since I know I will deplete my self to be able to show up. I’m 21 and I can’t do this anymore. It used to only be in public and now even alone at home im getting sick.

I thought I was getting better but I just woke up with random stomach ache (binged on too much junk food) and it was enough to set me into anxiety attack. Now I am overthinking it, that I ate something bad yesterday or it's a bug and now I will get violently sick. Last time it happened it was agonizing, so much pain and fear. I am terrified of finding myself lying helplessly on toilet floor with fever, throwing up and diarrhoea, with barely any energy to move, but the sickness and spasms taking absolute control over me. I am all alone, I don't know what I would do, that's such a nightmare, worse than dying, simply agony. Im scared.

I caught emetophobia when I was 4 when my twin brother and I would throw up a lot, but it seemed to leave me at that point until I was 6, when Me my twin and my dad was in our room then my brother started gagging and puking. At first I wasn’t scared until he started violently vomiting, and my father forced me to get in the tub with him so he could bathe us both, I was scared he was gonna start puking all over the tub but he assured me that he wasn’t gonna be sick again but started vomiting after the bath, and while I watched him barf I hid under the blankets where I could feel his vomit from earlier. The next time he did I was using the bathroom and he came in with my siblings and our parents trying to get him to the toilet on time, so I screamed and ran out the bathroom. First I was able to get close to him and touch his forehead to feel his fever and now ever since then I’ve been running away from anyone who said they were gonna be sick, and I would get anxious and start to cry when I felt nauseous. I’m 13 now and still have this phobia, it’s kinda hard for me to cope with it when if not me then my twin would get sick every now and then. My phobia started rubbing off on my brother when he started puking again when he was 8 after acting a rotten mango and now get anxious every time I see a mango or see my brother eating one. I hope anyone else suffering with this can get make it past this terrible phobia. 💚💔

I do, however, get so incredibly scared to puke myself. It's like an irrational fear taking over me. I resist until i can't anymore, then throw up by force (not by my will) and then i get a second attack that empties my bowels violently. I just want to learn how to help the body throw up not so violently, without it being so "rapey" and out of will.

You have to practice breathing. When I get the urge to vomit I take deep breaths until it either 1.) subsides and goes away or 2.) I do it (not because i want to lol.) If I throw up after taking deep breaths i feel less breathless and choked then before. It feels more controlled when you breathe DEEP in and out and calmly lean over the bin. Close your eyes so you don’t have to see it either and always rinse the mouth after and have some gum to kinda cleanse your palate.

I started developing a fear of getting sick when I was 7. It was when I first found out I got lactose intolerant, I would drink warm chocolate milk (put in microwave) before I went to bed but one night I got sick and didn’t think much of it so I had another cup of chocolate milk the next night, got sick again so I thought I was just sick and continued that cycle 3 or 2 more times and after the 3rd time of getting sick I started sleeping with a towel beside me bc I thought I would get sick and then I started to get scared of getting sick. After finding out I was lactose intolerant I didn’t have any dairy for 7 years bc i was scared that I was going to get sick. I started developing ocd, I had to do everything 3 times and if I messed up I’d ask god for forgiveness and tell him for me not to get sick bc of the mistake I made, I had a certain way I had to tie my shoes, I would say a ritual and if I messed up I’d have to start all over again, it was really affecting me since I was only 10 at the time. When I was 14 I had my first anxiety attack. I remember it was like 2 nights before I started high school and I ate food then tried to sleep but felt like I was gonna get sick so I started crying and fidgeting and everything. I was traumatized after that. I would have a stomach ache almost every night and I would get scared. It has gotten worse over the years as I am 17 now going into my senior year of high school. I’m always scared of eating food bc I’m scared of FP (im not typing it out) and im always getting anxiety whenever I feel even just a little stomach ache, but I feel like the ocd habits have calmed down but I still have to do everything 3 times. Im trying to get over this phobia but it is rlly hard, but something that has helped is thinking that “getting sick is your bodies last resort and rarely ever goes there” I heard these words in a KZbin video it’s a girl talking you out of an anxiety attack and it is really helpful. I hope to get over this phobia so I can choose a career and not have to worry of that career consists of being around ppl and the ppl getting sick around me. Edit: the video is by Jonasalmost famous and the title is emetophobia panic attack help. I always listen to it when I get anxiety

For ME, I’m not affected or scared of someone vomiting if it’s because of being drunk or pregnancy but if it’s a stomach bug, my heart starts racing and I start sweating. Basically, unless the reason someone is vomiting is something contagious that could make ME vomit I am okay with it. Like, I will stand next to a drunk or pregnant person throwing up but if someone says their stomach hurts and/or that they feel sick, I feel like I’m about to pass out. God, help!

I’m constantly infuriated that there is not more and better research into Emetophobia. There is still no cure and these treatments and therapies are hardly helpful for most with Emetophobia. Such an insanely debilitating phobia and it’s like we have no help. I just heard the guy say “nobody likes throwing up” and that phrase, I absolutely HAAAATE hearing. Because yes, that’s true. We know nobody likes it. And people are even afraid of it. But clearly this guy doesn’t even understand that there is a difference between a fear, extreme fear and a PHOBIA. I absolutely do not think Emetophobia is as common as they say. Otherwise more people would be researching this and trying to find more treatments and a cure instead of letting us grow into old age just getting worse with a horrible quality of life. I managed to have kids despite my phobia. I almost had to go to the psych ward over pregnancy. But I struggle being a mother and am very absent and isolated. Now it’s debilitating in even more ways. I just really wish more therapists truly understood this phobia and didn’t treat it as just some “fear” and would do more about it. I have noticed the research on Emet has literally not changed or gone any further in the last 20 years. At all. It’s so discouraging. Nobody caring how much we suffer. Let’s not even get into having it coupled with chronic illness and autoimmune diseases. I have several. But emetophobia and IBS definitely is a nightmare combo for sure.

I used to be paranoid of watching movies as a kid because all I could think of was "are they going to show something disgusting?, are they going to show the actors throwing up?". It consumed me and kinda ruined my childhood. Now here comes something I've never seen being discussed online. I was ALWAYS, and I mean ALWAYS, afraid and DISGUSTED by feces. I always had trouble visiting the toilet and I still do. When I see feces I get so disgusted that I can't eat for hours. Can anyone relate to it? When I heard of a movie called The human centipede, one particular scene caused the one of my biggest trauma. I am obsessed by this goddamn movie, I think about it for HOURS every day and I don't know how to stop it. I want it to stop but I'm afraid it's not going to happen. Now at 23 I struggle terribly with Body dysmorphic disorder and OCD. I will never be freed from those terrible disorders. I guess all the things that I mentioned above are OCD-related. Irrational fears. Things that are, indeed, unpleasant (or maybe even not) are becoming the focus of our daily life and we are consumed by them. I can't stand my face, I struggle to use the bathroom, I feel dirty and disgusting, I have had intrusive thoughts about being a paedophile. It never ends. It's a horrible cycle. :/

I don't fear getting sick myself, but if anyone around me indicates they don't feel well my immediate reaction is to run. I've been so bad that when my wife had food poisoning I went to the basement and put on headphones. I'm 39 and trying to sort it out as I have a 3 year old and I want to be there for him. If anyone has any resources please share. My fear seems to be more towards others being ill not myself. I can watch it on tv with no reaction, my trouble seems to be towards real life.

They would obviously say no. If someone said they were sick I axiomatically ask them DID U THROW UP?!?!?! Lol If someone is throwing up, I will not go near them that time I would leave the house for a month if it was my friend if it was my parents dad or mom I would still ovoid them. I can't stand whenever my dad throws up, he is so loud.

Funny how I used to be deathly afraid of vomiting to the point I wouldn't eat or even leave the house with having a panic attack and bringing a spare plastic bag with me just in case, but a few years later I developed anorexia and came out full on bulimic

It started when I was 5 or 6 years old, I vomit rapidly nonstop, maybe because of food poisoning, and after that thing happens, I'm afraid to vomit ever again and I'm afraid to be sick...

The fact that a website called "ratemyvomit" exists, makes me feel incredibly umconfortable. What the hell world, what kind of site is that! I overcomed my crazy emetofobia for most part over the years, and I am not afraid of vomiting anymore, but thinking about go checking that kind of website makes me feel terrible. I really don't see a reason to go check a website like that and thinking about the photos for an entire week. Disgusting..

Carry a ziplock bag. I carry them in stores in my pocket or bag and everywhere I go. It decreases the stress on me because I can think, well, IF I got sick, there is someplace to get sick in. Not preferable but it helps me a ton. Car rides are easier now too.

Also, take a mint candy with you. It speeds up the speed of your stomach and is anti nausea. Works wonders for me. Or maybe see if you can get a script for zonfran odt if you have nausea with your anxiety. I have them, disintegrate on the tongue and work wonders.

Was it the puking that was bad or moreso was it annoying? Was the anticipation beforehand and feeling gross worse than the actual vomiting itself? I cannot remember what it feels like to throw up and everyone says throwing up is the best part because you feel so much better after.

@@Russemii it’s very annoying depending how bad you get sick, but the puking is the worst part and trust me when I say it dose not get better after. And yes if your sick and puke you will feel better until you puke AGAIN the anticipation and felling worse is the worse part cause you know when ur sick and get nauseous it coming wich makes you scared and tired from anxiety then the actual puking is HORRIBLE. Your moth gets a tangy taste like bleh and your throat burns and your ribs hurt from gagging trust me when I say it’s the worst.

my advice would be to find god, purposefully confront your fear and overcome it with your mind. Because what i learned throughout my long phase of emetophia or anxiety (also heavy panicattacks) is that every hardship that you face or suffer from is making you stronger. With god and his trust in me and my courage i can overcome anything. This is what life has taught me. Especially the darkest moments and hardship. There are lot of nice quotes that help/helped me: "Its not things that upset us. It is our opinion about things." -Epictetus. Or "Your deepest darkest moment in life, may be the best thing that ever happens to you.". I hope i can help people with my comment.
