I have been reading the symptoms of this phobia and I am starting to wonder if I really do have it, I have been afraid of throwing up for as long as I could remember, I stopped drinking alchol because I got sick from it once and I developed a fear of riding in vehichels cause I almost got sick in one once, I am not the cleanest person in the world, I will wash my counters but I don't have to disenfect it before I put food on it however if someone who had recently been sick comes over I spray disenfectant spray on what ever they touch, like door knobs and stuff, and I am not afraid of getting food poisioning at restaraunts, but at home I will not eat food that has been out of the fridge for more than an hour or in the fridge for more than a day, I am afraid to let myself be sick weather I am around people or alone, if I start to feel sick I stop what I am doing and take slow deep breaths until the feeling passes, I am more afraid of feeling sick in front of people than when I am alone however because I don't like people fussing over me asking me if I am ok.
