I hate D* and I fear it if it happens more than like 3x or is accompanied by extremely painful cramps. The dehydration and pain aspect make me very queezy, which make me dry heave.

I understand bulimia and believe it or not, I know of some emets who are bulimic --- bulimia has to do with control, not vomiting or weight loss. It is all about control... and making yourself vomit,...

Nuts always make me go to the bathoom. Nuts are insoluable fiber and they will make you go to the bathroom -- trust me... as I did that one weekend with sunflower seeds, minus the shells ;)

I work as a telephone operator for the deaf, hearing impaired, and speech impaired. I can totally relate to having to sound "fine" when you feel like retching everywhere... it is miserable, but at...

I get hot ears when my anxiety gets high or whenI get embarrassed! It is rather funny... because I have long hair (which is usually pulled back) and glasses, so my ears get obvious! They turn bright...

I think it is a type of birth control.

At least when I haven't eaten, I know exactly why my stomach is hurting - giving me a false sense of control over the situation.

Mints can actually trigger acid reflux, so be careful using them to settle your stomach. For me, a mint will usually make me feel worse because it does something to actually irritate my stomach and...

I have little tolerance for drunks, so when they get sick - they are left on their own... except I will go check on them to make sure they don't need to be taken to the hospital. If you drink THAT...

Beef is frequently served pink without any problems. I would keep a cautious eye out and if you get sick, see a doc immediately and tell him what you ate of possible concern. I doubt you will get...

I don't know what hunger feels like anymore. I know when my body SHOULD be hungry, simply because "x" number of hours have passed. I have an eating disorder, so my feelings toward hunger are very...

I ususally stay awake. I have trouble sleeping when I have an upset stomach or I'm nauseated. I am so anxious to begin with... and I would stay up all night long and have done so in the past too.

I know I tend to hold my stomach in all the time, which often causes muscle aches. I do it because I feel so self-conscious and hate the feeling of my stomach pooching out. It is always worse when...

Caffeine has a similar effect on me too... I was so sick the other night because I apparently "overdosed" on soda - it was a nightmare, but I did learn my lesson.

Sounds like you just had a bad combination of foods --- your tummy might need a rest. Hope you feel better soon! I know greasy food ALWAYS sets off my stomach... blegh.

1st Question --- The food could have honestly been too salty. I just started working at a fast food resturant and trust me, it is really easy to over salt something. Each batch is different, however...

Not meaning to scare you, butANYTHING and nothing could hurt you by going out to eat --- it could be from the salad being cross contaminated to the chicken not being prepped correctly to someone not...

I just think I look for it more than other people because I'm bothered by people V* without me knowing the reason for their illness.

Believe it or not, there are many people who are emet and are bulimic too --- bulimia really has to do with "control" and when we get sick on accident, it can make even someone who makes themself...

I work at McDonald's as my second job right now. I'm vegetarian, so there is little I can eat - but I do get free meals when I'm working and I'm short on cash, so I tend to eat lots of salads and...

Oh my goodness, I should have known better - but I did it anyway. I woke up in the middle of the night extremely thirsty. I went to bed thirsty too. I made myself some koolaid with ice, gulped it...

I am very much a morning person, but my emet is worse at night. I think it has to do with the fact that I can't get help in case I need it if I get sick at night. I will have to wake someone up and...

Could it be your horomones? I know that with my PMS, my appetite and everything surrounding my stomach gets totally off. Hope you get to feeling better soon!!!

I have an ED too and it is awful! I am actually ED-NOS and I am a mess right now. I have put on weight this summer and I am about to move out on my own, which I know will drastically impact my ED. I...

I have always been OCD. For me, it is just part of life.
