Hi everyone. I am interested into what makes someone become
emetophobic. Is it a trait which we all share in our personalitys? It it that
we are generally more anxious people (My pscychologist said this) , or
could infact anyone develop this phobia? Also is it inherited or trigggered
by an environmental factor?
For me, i started having panic attacks when i was about 8. Everytime I ate
something i thought i was going to be sick, and i went all dizzy. It was
horrible. Iv always been anxious, and also suffer from social anxiety. I feel
i have inherited this from my parents. My mum and sister are also phobic
of V****. And are both also shy. I am scared that if i have children in the
future (only 21 now) they may inherit these horrible traits from me, and it
actually puts me off having children as i dont think i could face seeing
them suffer like i have.
Environment or inheritance? Id love to know.
