The reason you can hold it in is because your nausea so far has most likely been due to anxiety and not a true stomach illness. Up until not too long ago I was severely emetophobic and felt horribly...

That's what I ask myself too.

Or you can carve out a chunk of time every week, like two hours a week to devote to the work. It will just take you longer, but so what? The time will pass anyway, so you might as well use some of...

For me it took a week, but when I say a week, I devoted literally 8 - 10 hours a day working on the 4 + 1 bonus exercises in the program. The fear into power program does not talk you out of your...

I never get the flu shot because like twinmom said, if you're not in a high risk group, you don't need it. But more than that, as with every medication, there are always negative side-effects...

After the couple of times I vomited, I felt instantly better, the god-awful nausea was gone and my stomach felt great again. But both times I didn't have an appetite for the rest of the day. My...

Flu shots are a money-making business just like everything else that comes from big pharmaceuticals. So of course they're going to try to scare everyone into getting a flu shot. Do you remember...

Do you have regular black tea? Sipping on that helps settle a stomach... no milk in it though.

Yes! Do this! And tell them they have 5 minutes to eat it or else! lol

7 days.... to me it sounds more like food poisoning than a stomach virus. And with a bad bout of food poisoning, it can...

Jill, hi, welcome. I did the mp3 version.

Thanks! It wasn't the Emetophobia Recovery System advertised on this site. I did this program http://www.fearintopower.com/cured/emetophobia.html and it worked for me, that's what finally got me...

Most people refer to any vomiting and diarrhea as a "stomach virus" or "a bug" or something to that effect but that doesn't mean it is. And those of you who keep saying people are disgusting for...

Thank you for commenting, Rich. The problem is not so much you running the board although it is strange that someone who doesn't suffer from this particular ailment would want to unless it was...

I used to think that too until I finally found the treatment that worked for me. Now I'm completely "cured".

Yes that was Sage's second email to me in which she elaborated on her first response.

I respectfully disagree with Sage. I believe that someone who a) runs an emetophobia message board and more...

For some people who "party" vomiting is part of "the fun."

Lady Ga Ga does not need to vomit on stage for publicity. Unlike Bieber, she was probably wasted because she's open about her...

Well, I contacted Sage and her reply was that she's known about this for a while but isn't too concerned about it.

Is this the author of The Emetophobia Recovery System and owner of this website? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_9c8Q_dH9Y

I don't know. I'm just asking. Because his name is on the Emetophobia...

Their music is so bad, it's even making THEM sick when they hear it. :D

By the 18th whatever is going around should have run its course so please try not to worry so much about it. Easier said than done, I know. Get plenty of sleep and eat a healthy well-balanced diet...

That's wonderful! I hope it works so well for you that not only can you eat a slice of pizza but you can do whatever you want whenever you want without worrying about the dreaded V word.

I would think that because the flu can cause nausea and vomiting in some people, feeling a bit queezy after the flu shot is a possible side-effect but highly unlikely you'll actually vomit so try not...

Only emets would get mad at someone for being sick.

Getting mad at him - or anyone - for getting sick in public is like getting mad at someone for sneezing. Regardless what emets like to ...

This is proof that sometimes it just happens, at the worst time in the worst place, but life goes on, it's not the end of the world, nobody hates you, it always stops, and you might even find...

I have noticed, even on this website some people seem to have a fear of vomiting but not a full-blown phobia.
