The last time I v*ed was 6 years ago, but it was only once and it was from having anesthesia. The last time I was naturally sick was over 10 years ago. So, I haven't been sick from an illness since I became emet.

Ooh - sorry you had to endure that.
I've always feared anesthesia for this reason. BUT when I had to go under general anesthesia for wisdom teeth surgery - I forgot to ask for anti-emetic until after I woke up!
Than, as I sat in my dad's car riding home afterwards, mouth packed full of cotton, I remembered "Hey, you are supposed to be all N* and sick!" An anxiety feeling tried to come up but lemme tell you - anxiety feelings simply do not work when you are still halfway unconcious!
Thankfully due to the well-known 'emet superpower'¹, I never even felt the slightest bit N*.
Take care!

¹- you know what that is! Somehow us emets seem to have an uncommon resistance to getting sick!
Not since becoming a REAL emet. It's been 16 years. That last time I v*ed I had a fear of it, but more of a childhood normal fear not what I have now.
I vomited 5 months ago, due to Noro.
It has horrid. It's weird now, I didn't really panic that much when I was sick, but now, I go into full panic mode even if I feel a bit nauseous
I haven't v*ed since the phobia started 13 years ago. The last time I did I was 5, and it was blood. It's probably what made me an emet, even though I remember telling my sister right after I v*ed that it wasn't bad at all.
im heaps scared cause my mum was sick as a dog last night and im scared that i've caught whatever shes had. its prob from the meds she takes but it still hard to tell yaself that. i dont know what i'd do if i ever had to v* again
I have had emet since I was 8 and now I am 23. I haven't v*-ed since I was 16 but I still worry about it literally every single day and feel like I'm going to all the time. (
I was on an 18 year streak until about 6 months ago. I learned something really interesting in a class I took in college on the brain. Apparently you can "train" your brain to overcome really primal urges (like the feeling you need to v*) which I wasn't aware I had been doing all these years. I many times experienced extreme nausea, but could always overcome the need to v* through intense focus on my breathing. I really thought my brain had "forgotten" how to v*. I was so extremely sick though 6 months ago, my body just took over I guess.
