While I am not thrilled with the idea of myself vomiting (which I haven't in 31 years!!!), it could happen and I would have to deal with it, of course. What sets me over the edge of reason and into anxiety? Someone throwing up near me - in full view or within earshot, or actually on me. I think the latter would freak me out even more than anything. If someone were to get sick in front of or on me, I am not sure how I would react these days. I have acid reflux and gastritis and have been more nauseated lately, so I might get sick myself then, but let's hope it doesn't happen! However,if someone threwup in my house, but out of my earshot and in my basement bathroom I wouldn't care, but if I could hear it? It would bug me a lot.
