Please don't think that you have to drink to fit in! This is a ridiculous notion. I've got plenty of friends that don't do it, and find plenty of other things to occupy themselves with!

If you...

Most talented singer/songwriter of the century!

Brazil (movie)

I used to be the same way! I wouldn't watch something because of a v* scene, or I would ask friends who had seen the movie about v* scenes (honestly, why do they do those kind of scenes, anyway?!). ...

See, that's me too. I'm curious if fears like emet have something to do with the frequency. Perhaps if I v*ed as much as other people when they get sick, I wouldn't be afraid anymore...but I really...

Just saw him on Halloween this past year in Chicago. It was fantastic! :)

I'm sort of similar. I have a great fear of actually v*ing or seeing someone else v*, but I also am just afraid of the stuff itself. That's actually how my emet started for me. When I was little,...

I watch and collect anything Spongebob Squarepants related.

I also just bought a new stuffed monkey and went to sleep with it and my boyfriend last night.

Kelsi--Thanks so much for your post! I'm so glad that there is someone else who is going through the college woes. I know that my emetophobia has gotten a lot worse now that I'm a senior in college...

Sometimes even our closest friends and family can be quite insensitive about this phobia. I know that once when my mom was ill and v*ed, I hid in my room and cried, and she was angry with me, but...

I, too, can't emphasize enough how relieved I am to find a place like this where so many people have, what I thought to be, a very unusual phobia. How nice it is to find people who understand and...

Thanks for the advice!

I myself have been taking several OCD and depression meds ever since I was 12 years old. It helps on and off.
Just reading some of the stories and posts on this forum has...

Hi everyone,

I'm new here--and not sure how all this works, but I'm really tired of living with my emetophobia.
I've been struggling with this phobia for as long as I can remember, but I...
