Wow, it seems I'm among the minority of emetophobes who imbibe on a regular basis. I've actually found that getting drunk has been somewhat of a crutch in helping me to avoid dealing with this fear.

Obviously, I think "what if??", and it's funny, cos the ONLY times I've thrown up in the past 10 years has been when I was intoxicated. I avoid drinking on an empty stomach, and 95% of the time I know my limit, but when I'm drunk I just stop caring so much, and it feels good. Makes me feel normal.
