Ok I'm scared now. I use hand Sanitiser before eating when I'm out in public. The bottle says it kills 99.9% of germs, so I assumed it killed stomach bug germs.

I'm afraid of kissing and stuff. I'm afriad of even touching somebody else. I've not ever had a boyf, so I have no idea what I'd be like if I did. I think I would be petrified of catching things...
I swear by Dettol spray! I use it everywhere!!! Its fab stuff, and its proven to kill the germs that cause tummy bugs. Its great stuff. I'm at uni, and hate sharing a ktichen, so before I cook, I...
I'm so scared of getting ill from eating out that I will rarely eat out. I don't even have a drink out unless its in a sealed bottle so that I know its clean.
I am petrified. Everywhere I go people are talking about the Norwalk bug. It was on the news that the bug is going round my area, and they've had to close local hospitals and stuff. The thing is, I...
That guy looks and sounds soo scary!
I watch Holby City and Casualty. They don't really feature much v* on them, just the odd incident. Its good exposure therapy, even though I know its not real.
Well, if she had been dealing with her kid, and didn't wash her hands, then she could be carrying germs on her hands and then touch things at work. But, if she's had the illness, I don't think she...

Awww thanks everyone, you've all been so helpful, and I'm glad I'm not the only one that worries about it! I'm going to do some phoning round today and try and find an instructor who is good with...
Yeah, number three is definately true for me. I'm really not sure about number 4 though. My family don't take a huge interest in my phobia. They just try and understand it, and do what they can to...
1,2, and 5 for me. I have real separation anxiety problems. I also have a history of depression and anxiety in my family. For number 5, there are several incidents, that didn't happen to me, but that...
I'm nearly 20 and have never drank in my life. If you want to try a drink because you think it looks nice, then I'd say go ahead. There's no point not drinking just so you can say that you've never...
I started having driving lessons about a year ago, but gave up because of my emet. I was scared that I'd be driving in the car with the instructor, and that I would start feeling sick, and I'd start...
I worry about both. I worry that others would get sick, but I mostly worry that I would get sick, and I wouldn't know what to do.
Thanks everyone. Claire, please keep me informed of how it goes, I would love to hear if it helps you.

Thats cool, but a bit weird. Can't wait to read it though!
Has anybody here had any Hypnotherapy? I was reading an article in the latest issue of the NPS magazine about Emetophobia, and it said that hypnotherapy was a possible treatment option. I've looked...

I had a real scare today. I was at college, and I started getting this really horrible heavy sensation in my stomach. I tried to keep calm and ignore. I took a couple of beta-blockers to stop me...
