Vent about the phobia

[there-still-hope]

Hey I just wanted to let my feelings out about this stupid phobia. You don't have to read or answer.

I am really mad right now because again I had a anexity attack. But when haven't I? It's been like this since half of my life and I am sick of it. Sick of being scare that I will have to get sick and be able to do nothing about it but go through it. It such a silly fear but it affects my life daily. Anxeity like a nightmare and you don't know when it's gonna happen. I hate it that it happens in school where I have to sit in a classroom,full of people that could make fun of you if you *v. Not only that but I always feel like burping for some reason and it scared me because I don't know if it's *v or just a plain burp.
I am trying therapy but I am barley getting better. I still leave out of the classroom during an important lesson and I miss out on information. My phobia causes my parents trouble. My dad doesn't support my therapy and wants to me to get over it by myself. So does my mom. I which I wasn't born like this. *V isn't bad but yet I am deadly afraid of it and would rather do anything else then to *v. I really don't want to *V at all, but it's gonna happen and what scares me is that I don't know when or how. Sometimes I just want it to happen because I get so sick of it....

So yeah sorry if it's long but this is how I feel about this phobia...and if you read this then thank you for reading.

it can be tough alright, but it will get better i promise! don't worry too much about randomly v* in class, remember if you were genuinely sick, you'd know about it for sure! no matter what your head is trying to tell you, you're not just going to go from 0 to v* in seconds, so the chances of you v*ing in front of your classmates are ridiculously slim. i'm sorry to hear that your mam and dad are having a hard time with it, although it can be a difficult phobia to understand! but keep trying with therapy, you WILL get much better, it just takes time and effort. give yourself a chance, and forgive yourself after anxiety attacks, they happen us all. it means you're having a bad few minutes, but it doesn't mean you're not getting better in the long run

I agree with above. I am not scared of v*ing myself and I do get bugs every now and then (not often at ALL), but I can PROMISE you that if you were going to be sick, you'd know it, well in advance, to be able to make it to the restroom. There's no doubt about it, when you're actually sick, you know it. Stressing about our stressing doesn't help anyone.

Hey I just read this and I wanted to say thank you for the advice. I'll try to remember!

Guess you're right. But the thing is, I always confuse "sickness" with "anxious" so I don't know which is which. Well...I kinda do but i don't wanna take a risk of me *v in class.
