Before I found this forum:
I neverknew there was a term for those with a fear of v*
I thought I was crazy and alone for fearing this
I never knew so many others also suffered


My above sentiments is shared by countless others who have found this site.I read somewhere that emetophobia is in the top 10 most common fearsbut most people don't know they have it.


There are thousands of others sufferingbutdon't have the supportof this site because they don't know it exists.I wish emetophobia was as well known as claustrophobia, fear of heights and other phobias but it isn't. If you want to help other emetophbics understand they aren't aloneand bring public awareness you can do the following:
