    Sorry I'm not a Brazilian but I find I have to brainwash myself until I actually do get sick or else I will get obsessive about it...... And that is a waste of my life as a 22 year old lol....

    When others are sick I'd say I get way more panicky, whereas the last time I was dry heaving(TMI sorry) I walked around my bathroom going "arghhh...I HATE THIS!!!!!" Then inbetween the gagging I started singing Beyonce to distract myself(as I had a show the next night I was playing piano for!)

    Honestly, what I find works when I feel n* is almost having a little conversation with myself, as if I was assessing my current health state and in response going
    "Ahh yeah. That irritating stomach thing. Not deathly just a bit of a pain in the neck really".. I think when you give yourself permission that you'll be OK, its ALOT easier to accept the whole thing.

    Above all, remaining calm during an " attack" really makes a difference.

    There is three weeks, more or less, a girl did that thing that we hate by my side while I was in subway. If I had not jumped away, it wold leaning on me. Since that day I'm extremaly desperate all the time, because I think that everyone around me will fell sick too, and I try not to stare at people but It's impossible, and I always saw someone with a "sick face" and I'm wanting to cry and run so far away =l

    I go to a psychologist tomorrow (Saturday).

    Joice, does it bother you when other ppl are sick or yourself or both? It can be difficult to gauge how other fee by looking at them however just try to remember it's very rare that ppl will actually be sick in front of you . Of course sometimes it does happen and it sucks but we can learn to work though these fears. Seeing a professional will help you . I wish you the best
