While I am sometimes afraid of doing it myself (like now), I am much more terrified of others doing it. I can't be near them at all, even if I know it is something that I can't catch off of them. I...
It's been awhile since I posted, cos I was doing well, but I just went to the dentist today and found out I need two root canals. I always wait until the last minute, because I don't want to know the...
My best advice: Get it in a place where there is more fat on your body. The less flesh between the tattoo needle and bone, the more it will hurt.
Definitely the sound for me.
Honestly, I put other, because even though I am in therapy at the moment, I have mostly learned to control my emet on my own. And it's really not a matter of "controlling" it for me. Rather, it's a...
I am 33, female, and have had this phobia since I was 6 years old. But, I must stress, it does not always consume my life.
I picked a traumatic experience, although that is not the only factor. Anxiety disorders also run in my family.
I don't know about everyone else, but I am not that strong. Yes, I have had this phobia since I was about six, but most of the time it's not severe. It wasONLY a problem when Iwas around someone...
Never seen one...never had a "supernatural" experience, but...I am like Mulder from the X-files...I want to believe, but until it can be proven, I tend to be skeptical.
I haven't had a stomach bug in over 15 years.
Hmmm...never had strep throat...but I have gone to work with a cold or the flu. Just not with a stomach bug, cos I refuse to vomit or have diarrhea outside of the house.
People that don't have a phobia of being sick honestly don't think there is anything wrong with exposing other people to their illness. They don't think anything of it because they don't have the...
OMG...maybe I should ask my boyfriend for you. He is the expert on politics and government. He is a writer and that is basically what he writes about. LOL
The problem is...no one can quit smoking for someone else. It's the same with anything. You can't change who you are for someone else. It never works. You have to do if for yourself...because YOU...
How would exposure therapy for someone like me work? Pictures and movies of vomit do not make me anxious. The only things that do are hearing that someone I was near might be sick and I only feel...
I think the reason your husband was hiding his smoking from you is because he was afraid you would judge him for it. The best thing to do is to try to find out WHY he started back up. There must be...
Just bumping this up so I can get more replies. Thanks so much again!
No no no, by voting in this poll, you are helping me out so much, wing. Thank you! smileys/smilies_04.gif
Please, I ask that everyone answer this poll. I would like to know how many of you have social phobias as well as emetophobia. Even if they are not severe social phobias, please answer yes. This is...
It sounds like giardia and it's very possible that the doctors coudn't find it because it's very hard to detect. You can get it from a piece of fruit you ate or bad water. When I first got lactose...
Yep, believe it or not...a few years back I became lactose intolerant because of stress. Well, because at first I didn't know what was wrong with me and was too scared to go to a doctor for years to...
Hockey RULES! The only sport that I will watch on t.v. smileys/smilies_04.gif
That's a good question. Wish I had an answer. I tried to do both, and I couldn't. Sorry I wasn't any help. LOL
As far as having no "life"...sounds like you have more of one than I do. I live...
You are definitely not alone! I am way more afraid of others being sick than myself. When I first came here, I felt really alone, because I don't do many of the things some emets seem to do like...
