V* can make you feel better after it happens, but when that is the case, you should rest easy knowing that the sickness is not due to a virus or anything contagious. If it was something contagious,...

Welcome to the site! Why is it that you stop eating when you are worried about catching something from others? What would make the act of eating more dangerous then than other times? Any illness you...

Sounds like you are taking the right steps, and as long as you keep the right mindset good things should come out of it. Stay determined!

I get it quite frequently, mostly because I eat a lot of spicy food and it does that to me. But it usually only lasts for 1-2 times after eating that

Wow! Awesome story! And imagine that that is the by all likelihood the worst dealings with v* you will ever have to go through, and you got through it.

Kudos to you

Ditto what marmite said. It sounds like you have made a ton of progess, don't let a small setback ruin your mindset. Ten steps forward and two steps back isnt bad!

It was pretty funny, I liked the Hangover more though. The few times they do v* are very quick and brief. They cut right to a face (in a very jumbled seen where they keep doing camera cuts), you...

Congrats! Try to shake those nerves, you will be fine!

Glad you have the courage to challenge yourself this way! Keep up the positive thinking

Wow the subtitles on a dvd thing is really cool and interesting! I've never heard of something like that before. I guess having to pay attention to the words would make you focus on something else

I have a link in my signature about ways to deal with nausea, if you want to check it out

Question is why did the friend v*? Did he drink alcohol or eat something bad or get motion sick? Because unless he had a virus, than there is nothing to even worry about.

Just a warning for yall, the new movie Get Him to the Greek shows v*ing I think 3 times, maybe 4.

Thought you would like to know!

Welcome to the forum!

The most important thing I or anyone here can possibly tell you is: Surround yourself with understanding supportive people! Communicate your feelings and help people help you

Stop being anxious by just thinking about where you are going. It should be an awesome trip

Interesting... I've never heard of this in combination with emet, but look up "Trichotillomania." It's the urge to pull our your hair

Welcome to the forum!

Try not to focus on it and cause anxiety. Salivation can occur for dozens of reasons, smelling a certain smell, thinking about certain things, fresh air vs stale air, exercise. Your thoughts are...

Look into cognitive behavioral therapy. The admin for this forum has also made a product to help cure emet that sells for $60-$70. Theres a review of it in my signature below

Glad you found us, you've found a great little home away from home here

If his stomach was just then starting to feel odd, he really may have know idea if it is something that could lead to v*, or just a quick cramp. At that early, remaining calm and casual is probably...

Ditto what olschesky said, this forum alone can help your confidence and nerves a lot, by just knowing that there are others like you dealing with this.

That being said, you can boost that...
