I sometimes go on this site called YouNow..Today, there happened to be a very interesting lady there! I wanted to share what she said..
She was a therapist, who dealt a lot with schizophrenics..She had never heard of emetophobia. I was watching her live stream for a while until I mentioned my phobia, she was very interested. We talked for a long time afterwards, and this is what she said:
I told her, I rarely leave the house, I SH, I would quite like not to be here, I told her a little of my past, and about my schooling situation. She was amazed that I was as open about my issues to her..Which was when I was like OMG! I just totally told a stranger things I barely tell the people I trust the most! There was something so easy about her. Honestly, we talked for hours and my therapist, doctor, mum, dad, have never done as much for me ever as she did for me today. So many inpriring things, helped me so much, and was just proud of me for staying strong, and most of all was interested which is nice coz normally people groan or tell me to stop looking for 'attention' but she asked so many questions happily and was just...awesome! If you want to check her out becuase I have given the worst disciption possible as to how much she did for me, go to YouNow, and search for NinaRoss
I cant link it sadly She was just...too cool!
Also it took a while until she asked my age and by this point she knew all about some of my issues, and like...I dont think I have ever seen a more genuinely shocked and sad face.
