    When I see someone else v*, I just stay. I don't run away, I just have my panic attack and have my moment and I'm much better off for it now.I feel like my whole world iscaving in for a while but it helps in the long run.My fear of other folk v*ing has been very much reduced [img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]However, it took me a good while and a good therapist to realise this lol!

    I am pretty much fine with seeing it on TV or seeing it on the internet - no biggie.


    When I see it in real life, I am bothered by it - but not totally freaked, as long as I don't HEAR it happening or don't SMELL it! When I see it, I usually just try and get away from it.


    When I do it, well... I haven't V* in 16-17 years (I was either 6 or 7 the last time I did it and I am not completely sure which age). I am hoping to feel relief after it happens because I am tired of living in the fear of the "unknown". I am hoping it feels digusting and unpleasant, but I am hoping what I learn from how my body alerts me to its' need to V* will better prepare me for knowing when I will do it next. Right now, I don't even know what signals my body is going to give me in preparation of V* and THAT is what freaks me out!

    Well like today my dog V*ed (And then about 5 mins later ate it so I didn't have to clean it up) but when I first noticed it I actually had to get down and examine it...don't ask me why but I had to look at it. If I see it randomly on the street I don't freak out but I have to like LOOK at it to decide if it's V* or not.


    I'm fine when I see it in the movies or on TV. ER is one of my favorite shows and so I sort of had to get used to seeing it.


    When it happens in real life and I hear it/see it happening/smell it then I totally freak out, especially if it's one of my sisters. I don't know I tend to freak out more if it's a family member or friend, if it's just some random dude on the street or something I freak but I don't like run around screaming or crying or anything.

    I stay calm, but panic inside, in virtually every scenario. In most cases these days, it's my children doing the v* and I pretty much keep it together as far as they know and I do what I have to do. Inside I am just going nuts. It is so horrible for me when DH is sick because he's so loud about it. He goes downstairs but it's still loud and clear. When I am sick, I no longer 'fight it' like I used to. I don't encourage it either but I try very hard to let my body do what it needs to do so that I can get better.
