I just want to start off by saying that I am so glad I found this board. As cliche' as it sounds, it always makes you feel better to know that you are not alone and that there are people out there that know exactly how you are feeling.


I have been struggling with this for a few years now, and I've had about all I can take. I'm only 25 years old, and I should be going out with friends and having a good time, but my fear ofgetting sickalways takes over. I'm not comfortable unless I know there is a bathroom nearby, just in case.


I'm planning a trip to Reno to see Darren Romeo's show, and that's in October, and I'm already starting to panic, wondering if I will be okay to sit on the front row, or if I will get myself all worked up. I keep thinking "What if I get sick? I will be mortified."


I am just so tired of living this way. Edited by: melissalynn
