Hello Everyone!
Just a quick update. I am still working on the program and things are looking good. I have hit some blocks. For example, when I cleared most of my memories I started feeling this...
New update!!
Here is my progress so far and some other changes I have made.
I feel ALOT better. I can't say the fear is gone but I do have to say I am well on my way. This is a deeper look...
It's been about a week so so since I started the program. I am still on the first exercise of the program (there are five) because I have lots of memories to work through. This is what I have...
When I first joined this forum I was in the process of discovering what works to cure emetophobia, and what doesn't. Actually, to be more clear I only knew what DIDN'T work and I was really...
It is very good to know I am not alone:) I think it may have to do with this one time I had a panic attack late at night from feeling sick. I actually went for a drive hoping to get away from the...
I completely agree that the exposure therapy sounds terrifying....I have heard that it could help with phobias but I do not know anyone who has gotten results. I do know that even when I allow myself...
That's good news! I go into panic when my boyfriend gets sick (its not big deal to him) On the evening of my birthday he was really ill and I was wondering how I would sleep next to him fearing he...
I had an experience when I was 22. I was drinking at Fantasy Fest (a huge drinking event in Key West Fl) and I had wayyyy too much which is really unlike me. I ended up getting sick without any real...
Wow! Thats great to hear. Not gonna lie though, I did feel a bit anxious when you mentioned the guy talking about getting ready to get sick. It's so weird cause when I was last sick like that I...
I love your advice!! Thank you for sharing that. Your right most times we know we are anxious in certain situations and we make it worse by denying or running away from it. I love the idea of...
That's really interesting information. I am taking an anatomy class next semester and I was thinking hmmm maybe if I will feel more comfortable with my body when I learn about it. I am very glad this...
That is great to hear. I am currently seeing a counselor for CBT but I feel she doesn't completely understand what I am going through. That is great that in just three sessions your feeling better. I...
I happen to have both forms of emetophobia, being afraid of getting sick and others getting sick. How long have you been doing CBT? I just started it with a counselor and I am unsure about it's...
I have noticed that my fear is more prominent at night (unless it's triggered throughout the day) Maybe it's because I used to get sick so much at night when I was a child...I'm not sure. I went...
I am so glad you posted this information! Do you think I could talk to you through messaging? I am new to the forum so I'm not quite sure how it all works:) I felt like everything you said REALLY...
Hello Everyone,
First I want to tell you that I feel everything you are going through. I am new to this forum, but I am not new to emetophobia. In fact, I believe I have had it all my life but it...
