Hi everyone, i am new here and just wanted to indroduce myself
I am a 30 year old mother of 3 and have been suffering from emetophobia for 6 years. Before I had my first child I was never anxious about anything and certainly didnt think twice about vomiting! Once I had my first child things changed for reasons I can not pinpoint and I suddenly started to worry about sickness etc (you know the things Im talking about).
The funny thing is that I only realised a week ago that what I have is an actual condition! When i found out it had a name I was both relieved and horrifed at the same time. As much as i felt relieved that other people felt the same way I was horrifed to think that other people were having to suffer what I am going through.
I have not really spoken to anyone about this and only told my husband about 2 days ago. He is very supportive but I still feel that i need to talk to people who can understand what I am feeling.
I look forward to talking with you all!
