and only mildly affected emets on this forum (I mean, besides sage)? And if so what do people feel their place should be?


This line of questioning may sound strange, but I have been thinking...

wow, amber! awesome post!


Edited to say that you do bring up a great point about whether this forum really should be a place where people can constantly come to get told "no, you won't get...

I'm tending to think that I remember this disagreement arising before in other threads. The disagreement to which I am referring is the one where one contingent of forum members claim it's rude,...

O.K. don't say that maybe you will tell your psychologist on Wednesday.


How about definitely tell her?

I think that the best news and idea behind this thread is that when you get cured, you really don't care anymore. You don't panic, you don't have to talk yourself down. It's just not an issue. Most...

That's true, Galadriel, that a therapist meets a patient on his/her level. But in the work that I have done with my therapist that has never meant that she doesn't tell me when I'm being illogical...

It sounds like you talked yourself into being sick. You are saying that you knew it would happen, but it sounds like a self fulfilling prophecy because you're working yourself up so much.


Sit...

Unfortunately, sometimes there are no real explanations for why a parent favors one child over another. Don't look for anything logical in it. He's wrong to favor one child over another, of course,...

Are you asking if there are germs outside when you run?


Because if so, the answer is No.

I don't agree with what you're saying about the reporting. I think that few of these cases right noware goingunreported because it's getting such widespread media coverage, and people are on the...

The problem here is not the money -- that's just a side issue.


The real point is that you need to start to surround yourself with a better caliber of people. I used to hang out with people of...

Sounds like the most you could catch from your sis is a cold. And I don't know about you, but I don't EVER vomit from a cold. How many emets vomit from a cold?

Well, I'm not sure about the cooking, especially if you have read something in your newspaper that says cooking doesn't help. Good grief - such conflicting information in major media sources.

Well, since I got diagnosed with thyroid disease over the summer, a weekly weigh in is not reasonable for me because weight usually comes off more slowly than the general population for thyroid...

O.K., well I guess that I just can't let this thread die. But here is a link from an FDA press release from December 2005 -- yes 2005, not too long ago - about new studies linking Paxil to congenital...

So which is it? Is vomiting necessary to get rid of toxins or is it unnecessary as it does nothing to do this?


I guess that I see this point written about both ways on here, and I am a big fan...

ruby -- I honestly don't think that you can fail to report e coli infection, at least from the way this one sounds because it is the serious strain of the bacteria. You just get way too sick with it,...

From what I have heard on the news, the reason that washing will not get the e coli off the spinach is the reason that shiva and some others said -- because the e coli is embedded within the leaf...

If you have any money right now, I would recommend that you see a nutritionist who can guide you through the process of choosing better foods. And you are going to have to ignore what your husband is...

Yes, I grew up in a very abusive environment.

If you did want to do it, you could certainly do it. That's why they tell you so. Maybe you just don't want to do it.Don't torture yourself about something that you don't want to do anyway.

Well, this is another one of those times when I realize that I don't quite fit the mold here on this board because my phobia has just not been that severe for decades now. The thought of vomit did...

Two things -


I think that there is something to the idea that some people may be less susceptible, have stronger immune systems and so on.


Also, I'm sorry to burst anyone's bubble, but I...

lizzo - I went to Maui in 2003, and I still daydream about moving there. Don't torture yourself like this with your emet. Go have life experiences. The thought of your not going makes me feel very...

lol - the older boy had taken a vow of silence and was annoyed with his family -- nothing to do with puking.
