    Default Just v*?

    Hi everyone,

    I very curious about this--I am of course deathly afraid of v* and v*ing, but not so much about things going the other way. I experience d* on a very regular basis and it really doesn't bother me in the least.

    I'm interested if anyone else feels this way! Is it just v* you are afraid of or any sort of sickness?

    Thanks!
    Clare

    I voted both because I never have d*, so it would terrify me if I had it right now. It's another symptom of an sv, and reminds me of v-ing.

    I voted both v* and d*, but I'd say d* bothers me like, 1/5 as much as v*. And if I know what is causing the d*, like I ate too much dried fruit, it doesn't bother me that much unless I feel sick with it. I do get obsessed with a lot of different symptoms, though. Like even a rash can freak me out if I dont' know WHY I have it.

    I put both. If I know what is causing the d*, I don't mind it. But if I have no reason, I freak out!!

    I said v* I have d* every so often and most of the time I just have it with no other symptoms. If I am feeling sick with the d* to where I think I might v* I get scared but d* by itself is ok

    See, that's me too. I'm curious if fears like emet have something to do with the frequency. Perhaps if I v*ed as much as other people when they get sick, I wouldn't be afraid anymore...but I really don't want to think about that alternative! Lol.
