hi there, thank you for writing back to my post. well i am not on anti depressents purley as they can make you nauseous. i take larazapam on and off, but it makes me really moody and dizzy. I dont have any children, I have seen almost every therapist you can see where i live and none really helped. one of them actually put a garbage pail infront of me and said we are going to do this! i told her if i had to go through her to get out the door i would! needless to say i never went back to her. i tried hypnosis once, but cant afford to keep going as i don't work and live on disability so i only have enough to live, and that is barley. this phobia has taken so much from me, I hate it!
I have come a long way, before i wouldn't leave the house, wouldn't eat past 7pm, sometimes i wouldn't eat at all. i thought of it constantly. Now i just get really bitchy when the stomach flu is going around as i am afraid to catch it. and if someone i know has it i treat them like they have the plaque. its so embarrasing having this as it runs your life at times. i really hope they come up with something that will just either take the fear away, or something that can stop you from ever throwing up.
