Have you read Sage's sticky about her EMDR? After reading about her I thought that EMDR would really help me but it hasn't had this astounding effect that I thought it would. For over a year and a...

Hi. I have tried hypno-therapy after EMDR failed to work and after trying CBT and deep muscle relaxation. I'm not sure if hypnotherapy is different from hypnoanalysis, but I found that it was the...

I definitely agree with everyone on this. I need to be alone.

But has anyone else ever thought about other people who try to help you out when you're panicking? I always feel terrible because I...

Sex is the ONLY time where I don't think about my emet. It's a nice getaway, but then after all of the anxiety comes rushing back :(

I actually just came here to post almost the same question. I was with my ex for two years before we broke up. He knew about my phobia but didn't understand it at all. Now, I have met this amazing...

Sorry it took so long to reply. What kind of university doesn't provide internet??

My current boyfriend, the only one I've told about my emet, tries to be supportive and says he is... but it's not...

My mom has Crohn's, but she has never once gotten s* from it. :)

This is so great reading everyone's response! It's nice to know how people have maintained (or have not =/) relationships. I am always into learning from others and their experiences as well as your...

I can totally relate. My boyfriend got bronchitis really bad last year (the whole event made my emet a hundred times worse - before this happened, I breezed through life and only thought about my...

I was just looking through the thread topics, and thought this was the funniest thing ever. If anyone who didn't know what website I was on walked by, they would be seriously confused.

Nearly...

I have lupus, and since I don't want to take immuneosuppressants (OMG CAN YOU IMAGINE?! It's an emet's worse nightmare!!), they deal with each of my symptoms. I'm on antibiotics MOST of the time,...

Yes, I agree with everyone else too. I can paraphrase 8B
I think making yourself sick as a last step would be good, but since you haven't really changed your way of thinking (you say you don't want...

Hey! I get a lot of UTIs too (lupus attacks my poor kidneys!). SimplyMe is totally right - don't wait for it to go to your kidneys. You have a possibly chance of v* from kidney infection too D:
I've...

I would be against something like that. I don't like flu shots either. Even as an emet, I figured 'what doesn't kill me makes me stronger.' -- Of course that doesn't go for like, tetnus or anything XD

I totally feel the same way! In the US (or maybe it is the state I live in) I think you have to be 25 to have all your girl parts removed! I wanted to have it done but then my cousin told me I'd grow...

We've had this thread before and I believe it was closed due to the immense number of people who were being just plain mean to each other.

OMG Someone should totally create a MySpace/Facebook group! That would be pretty awesome :)

I have all of my messengers, as well as email and MySpace in my profile if anyone ever wants to talk! I...

This is very interesting.
I can remember a few times, but not all. They really never stuck in my head.
Once from drinking grape juice, once from eating speghetti (<5 yrs old, don't know specifics)....

That must be hard. When I was in younger grades (I just graduated from high school, this is my first year in college), my emet wasn't bad. In high school, we had kids who would think it was funny to...

Wow, telling people about my phobia is almost as frightening to me as the phobia itself! The first person I ever told were therapists. The first one helped me tell my boyfriend. After my boyfriend I...

Benadrylllll!!!
It doubles as an anti-emetic, though I'm not sure how useful it is with allergies...

It's funny that I found this website not even six months ago, and I already want to help out everyone (especially since everyone on here was so helpful to me!).


Everyone with emet wishes it was...

I was wondering the same thing. If anyone knows lots about stuff like ICQ or whatever that wordpad-looking chat is, that would be rocking. I have a friend who created one for a local convention but I...

Hey! I've actually read a few things about this. People who just have anxiety problems (no phobia, just stress and stuff) will often times wake up in the middle of the night. I read a few stories...

Aw! I hope you start to feel better. When my boyfriend and I got bronchitis, the doctor told us to try Muncinex... but it's super expensive (they keep it behind the counter and it's like, $30!). So...
