You should be proud of yourself. It is the little steps. Continue to post your achievements. I love to read the positive stories.

This forum has given me a great source of comfort too. Like you I didn’t now anything about emetophobia. Like you I read about it from a magazine. It listed common phobias such as agoraphobia ,...

Interesting, I was just reading “The anxiety & phobia workbook” which suggests Vit B and Vit C supplements for anxiety

Thank you. For the first time in 30 years, I am trying to figure out just what scares me so much (I guess if I am going to think about v* all the time I might as well look at it all...

Hey! Don't be sorry!

When I was at my worst, I would hardly eat for days. Now I link not eating with n*. I don’t get hunger pains, I just get headaches and n*. It doesn’t sound like you have a...

You have just described me 11 years ago!! I just thought it was IBS. I stopped eating meals and lost a lot of weight... I had lots of comments about how good I looked..but when I looke at old...

Interesting thread

I am definitely not anorexic. I love food too much!! I could link my eating so emotions.. I can binge on chocolate etc. I really dislike eating until I am full, especially at...

I have had 2 babies and I haven’t v* yet through pregnancies, labour, (lots of) childhood illnesses, long car journeys etc..

I have felt n* though, especially when pregnant with my second. I...

Thanks for sharing your story. I hate the thought of others seeing/hearing me v* and want to be alone when I feel n*. I think this is because I hate the thought of seeing/hearing others v*. Do you...

Poor you!

I hope you are feeling better by the time you read this!

You probably wont be sick! You know what us emets are like!!!

Just remember others who have posted on here telling their...

TV is a great distraction..especially a good film (one preferably without v*). I often put the tv on when the children are unwell at night and we lay downstairs in makeshift beds until they feel...

I was once on a short cruise with friends. We had all been drinking. We arrived back to our cabin and my friend started v* in the bin..then went into the bathroom. She v* all over the bathroom. I...

No not at all in 2009!!!

I remember v* when I was about 6 years old, then again when I was 12. The I went through this weird time when I was in my 20s and would make myself v* when I was hungover because it made me feel...

Good for you! I feel a little like that. My first concern is the children.. how would I do school runs or cook tea, so having my husband home would be one major concern out of the way. What is the...

I have had this for as long as I can remember. I would stop eating if anyone was sick around me from a very young age. I remember being terrified of being sick at the age of 6. I haven’t told...

yes.. I can get quite n* when hungry..a vicious cycle..

As I read back what I have just written it does seem an irrational fear I have. But I think for me its the not knowing when/where I will v* How long for etc.. I think if I v* once, part of me will...

***GRAPHIC***

Hi.. I haven't v* (sober anyway!) for so long I really am not sure what it would feel like! I think for me its the first v*.. the second would probably not be too bad. I think for...

Well done you! Carry on thinking like that and never look back!

I have lived with this fear for many many years.. I have had years when I have thought like that and I have had some bad years...

Hey Amie..its still early days though. I read on here that people have started seeing results at about 6 months into therapy.. but really need to work on it themselves for years. I am sure it will...

I have certainly been more aware of motion sickness as I have got older. Now, that could be from anxiety and my emet getting worse or just though change in my body..who knows.

It could also be...

Although I haven’t told anyone about my emet.. the last couple of years I have met lots of people who say they are afraid of v*. I agree with them; however I don’t quite feel brave enough to tell...

Hi Amie. Well done for seeking help. How is the CBT going?
