Feels like it's about to happen!!!

So scared... I wasn't very hungry at dinnertime; I only ate a little which is unusual for me. Ever since then n* has been getting worse and none of my usual n* relievers are helping! I've had more peppermints and antacids tonight than some people do in a lifetime (out of anxiety and impulse), and 3x my usual zofran dosage and I'm sipping some water and baking soda. Nothing is helping. I'm afraid to even move. I want to live my life - so tired of this!!!

Hi, hope you're okay...hang in there. You've done everything you can to help...hoping by now you are feeling a bit better...

Really appreciated this response, thank you!

I ended up being able to hold back.

Anxiety ceased. Then tonight instead of completely washing my hands before eating out on public and risking just sanitizing, I hear a story right after about someone's child being severely ill with stomach distress of some sorts. I drank strong alcohol tonight which I don't normally do. I'm so angry lately from this phobia!! I hope I'm saved from either scenario.

Anyway, sorry. End of rant!

I’m curious, do you think you were actually sick, or was it just anxiety?

[StayStrong]

Pretty sure it was just anxiety related and not an illness, Dr.EmTim.

Awesome Glad to hear everything’s ok!

it can be so frustrating to have to deal with this. I can never tell if I'm really nauseous or just anxious. Its almost always just anxiety but thats what makes it frustrating.

Sorry to hear about this.... I can relate to how you feel. Antacids, peppermint and all. There is a really special book called 'Cure your Emetophobia and Thrive' and it works miracles. People that have read it are either completely cured or 90% cured and can live their life normally. It has been used by thousands of Emets and so far have had no complaints.... a guy named Rob Kelly wrote it and he has been studying Emetophobia for 30 years. I recommend that book! Mine is on its way (: hope I could help a little.

Hi. I'm 'grumbling' too tonight. Had pasta and tuna. Nothing happening yet but BIG anxiety
