Wait, what? Why did she throw up?

Yes, vomiting from overexercising is common. I often get nauseous from too much exercise but have only vomited once. It is a yucky feeling, but at least you know you aren't sick. Best advice is to...

That is a really good point. I would be teaching anywhere from age 5 to 12. I am not sure yet, but I'm sure the older kids might especially pick up on it if they knew I was nervous.

That's good! Well I am not worried about catching it. I never catch anything, and even if I do, I don't care. I just hate being around other people vomiting as I hate how it looks, sounds, and...

So I just went for a meeting with the principal of a local school regarding my student teaching placement for my degree.

The first thing he says to me when he steps out of his office is "I will be...

It means they like vomit basically.

Yeah. I think having an opposite perspective is good sometimes. I can't really judge anyone who loves vomit, because I am just as unusual due to being scared of vomit. I find it quite interesting...

Lizzie that is horrible. What an immature person to send you that kind of message. You are a valued member and should not be made to feel that way. I have never been hurt by anyone on this website. I...

Today I was driving about a 2 hour trip to see my family who live a while away. Anyway, there was this car pulled over on the side of the motorway. I always look at cars who are pulled over, I am not...

I registered for one this year and I got the info from the website and then emailed the man who is in charge and he sent me forms to fill out. I am looking forward to starting.

Hi there,

I don't have this problem because my phobia is more of other people being sick than of myself. But I think there is a very fine line between emetophobia and an eating disorder in cases...

No probs!!

Also, just thought that I would note that I went on a 2 hour flight from Brisbane to Melbourne today. The whole time I was really nervous that someone around me might get sick. Every...

Well I don't think there is anything you can do. If you panic about it you will start feeling sick, so I would suggest just keeping calm and going about your normal life. Even if there is a virus...

Wow, that's fantastic! You are so brave for going through that, especially with the person vomiting. I wouldn't be able to do that. It just shows your strength. :)

Good luck, I hope everyone there stays safe. xxx

I think it both helps and hinders. It's nice to come here for a bit of reassurance, but sometimes someone mentions something that makes me worse. Like I was never scared of going on planes until I...

One that is not on that 399 list is "pavement pizza"... my friend used to call it that whenever she saw it on the ground and I found that pretty gross actually.

Actually, I just realised it is on...

Oh, and I had better actually answer the question. I can say and type any of them without feeling bad. Although I do agree that some sound a bit more crude than others. I think blowing chunks is...

Me too! I actually laughed out loud when I saw that! :D

I agree with Stephenie. I think if you take the right doses when you are supposed to, and just follow the instructions, you will be fine. The proof is that it was perfect for you all that time, and...

There were no babies in my row. There were only 3 seats in the row and I was inbetween 2 middle aged men who did not seem to look sick at all, so I was happy. I guess it depends on how the plane is...

Hi Lizzie, I know how you feel. My phobia is completely irrational as well. I hate vomiting, but vomiting myself is not part of my phobia. Seeing or hearing other people vomiting is the main part of...

Hi Amber, welcome! I know what you mean about the sound of vomiting. I HATE it as well. And I also hate the sight of it. I can't handle either. I actually just signed up to take part in a phd study...

Welcome! You are definitely not alone!

That is great that you have not had to deal with anyone getting sick on a plane. I never had to until this trip either. And I hope I never have to again!

Hi Monkey_puzzle, I just want to let you know that the plane bathrooms are small and cramped but they are not that bad. I always get the seats nearby the toilets because there is usually a bit of...
