Everyone has a different threshold for v*ing. For some it's impossible for others even stress or a mild stomach ache might bring it on. I saw a program about sword swallowers on the History Channel a few weeks back and how they have to suppress the gag reflex and other "automatic" and involuntary reflexes. So is it possible to stop it, I guess for some people it is, maybe for everyone, maybe not. Most non emets and even some of us would just let it happen if it got bad enough. But yeah I was surely thinking of emets, and our avoidant behavior to v*ing and how this might explain how some people can really shut it down, while most seem not to be able to.
