Yes, such a relief! [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]
I was exactly the same - my parents had no idea either, they thought it was just a fear that was personal to me. I remember typing in 'Fear of vomiting' into Google not so long ago, and how utterly gob smacked I felt to discover that I was far from alone - it was in fact a very common phobia!
I'm so glad that there are websites like this available to us - somewhere where we can vent our frustrations and not be afraid of being judged, [img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]
Thanks for the welcome!
