Hi all!
So, this is my first time on this site, and I must say, it's a very informative any helpful site. Kudos to everyone on here!
About one week every month (about 2 weeks after Aunt Flo, but I don't think it's relate), every night I am overwhelmed with the fear that I am going to v*. My head starts to pound, my throat closes, and my stomach cramps up and aches terribly. I have never actually hurled after feeling like this - I just lay down and put a heating pad on my stomach, but this is getting to the point of ridiculousness. Just for a few hours every day (always at night), I can't eat, and I'm afraid to sleep for fear of v*ing in my sleep.
Is this a normal emetophobe's reaction? What can I do to ease the terror?
Thanks in advance! Just knowing that there are people who feel as I do is so comforting!!!
