    So if someone gave you an ultimatum, die tomorrow if you don't vomit once
    today. Would you do it? I think at this point in my life, I would do it, only
    because I am not quite ready to go... unless of course it is my rightful time.

    I believe it is a test to see how severe one's emet is these days.

    I would vomit today. Not only is my emet doing much better, and I'm more scared of others v*ing anyway. But the main reason, is that I just "came back" from an incredibally suicidal point of my life, which lasted several months. If you'd asked me this in April, I would've chosen to die, not to avoid being s*, but because I wanted to die.

    For now, I'm enjoying looking forward to the future, wanting to not die is lovely!

    I'd rather die tomorrow if someone could guarantee that I'll not vomit today for sure no matter what I do.
    It was hard but I'd do it again (c)

    I would definately v* today if I had to choose between that or dying. I actually think it could help me overcome my extreme fear of v* (because it hasn't happened for so long).

    uhm can I chose either both or neither? lol... In my sane mind right now
    I can tell you I rather v* HOWEVER when it comes to the moment that I
    have n* and its inevitable its going to happen then I tell myself "I would
    rather die" so my rational mind would like to say rather v* but when if
    I am in the middle of anxiety and n* .. I am not so rational. [img]smileys/smilies_02.gif[/img]

    In the irrational I think any of us would rather die eh? What a thing to think
    though! I mean.... wow.... we are really an irrational people. I know how
    frightening it can be... SO indeed.

    I look forward to the day we live forever in heaven with perfect bodies. This life is only temporary anyway so I couldn't mind dying tomorrow.

    I can definitely see some merit in that. [img]smileys/smilies_02.gif[/img] Depending on one's belief system. I can dig it.

    I really really don't want to vomit today. I really really don't want to die tomorrow.

    I think I would pick vomit today, because even though it would happen for like less than 30 seconds, and even though I would have a panic attack for like three hours, I'll still be able to enjoy my life after i get over my panic.

    Honestly my innitial reaction is "ANYTHING BUT VOMITING!" but later
    my logic kicks in and I think a minute or two of panic isn't worth my
    whole life.

    for me, I think if I knew I was only gonna v* ONCE, and I
    knew EXACTLY WHEN it was gonna happen and that I wasn't
    gonna feel n* and that before/after, then I'd be fine.
    Its the uncontrol bit, and the feeling awful bit that
    scares me most.

    I chose die tomorrow because I am ready to go.Things are just so messed up in life right now and have only been progressing for years..every aspect of my life.

    And I don't think death is such a big deal so it really doesn't matter to me (unless I die and there is no afterlife, that would kinda suck lol)

    I would take vomiting once a day - every day - if it would make me immortal. Once one day to live more than after tomorrow is a no brainier for me. I choose life. [img]smileys/smilies_02.gif[/img]
