Different type of emet. I can watch that stuff, I can be around that stuff, AS LONG as I cant catch it. When its the contagious kind, I start to freak. Big time.

I saw Mythbusters do a bit on travel sickness meds, and Ginger tablets came 1st for relief and lack of side effects.


Of course, it wont calm you down mentally/drug you, but knowing it is an...

Be careful, I dont want to be a doomsayer, but this immediately reminded me of when I was little and had a bad cough, my mother gave me some cough medicine that tasted so bad, it made me V*!

I cant pinpoint what made me have this phobia, but I can guess...
