Hello,


Im relatively new to this site and was wondering if anyone has been through the same experiences of this condition.


I have had the fear for as long as I remember, I would obsess over food hygiene and avoid people who were sick but I lived my life normally. I fell pregnant in march 2010 and I had morning sickness pretty much straight away, it was awful. I had it all the way through and because of this barely ate because I got it into my head that if I didnt eat I wouldn't be sick. This was fine as I knew it would end on having given birth. It didn't and 12 months on from giving birth I still feel nauseated (to which there is no physical explanation) and still don't eat properly. I've lost 3 stone and now have a BMI of 16.5. I'm now under the care of a psychiatrist and currently recievung CBT to treat the phobia.


I feel so isolated and alone even though I have my family, but they don't understand. I just want to get back to normal, feel like my family have nearly given up on me.
