If your emetophobia magically went away completely today, what would you do?
I would finish getting my dental work done TOMORROW so I could smile again!

Oh my God, so much stuff! I would enjoy my daughter 100% instead of just 99% as the constant worrying about her getting a sv* would be gone; I would order whatever I liked in restaurants; I would wash my hands a little less than I do now and maybe I wouldn't have the hands of an 80yr old!; I would stop throwing food away because it was due to go out of date the next day; I would stop avoiding every single person I know every time they say they are even slightly n*. That's just off the top of my head, I'm sure there's more!
*sigh* if only, 'eh?

I would be liberated.
I wonder if any of us would miss it, and why.
Besides the constant fear, anxiety attacks, paranoia, lack of social life? Absolutely nothing.
Yeah, but I bet some people use it as a convenient excuse not to do......... fill in the blank. Not to say that their emetophobia isn't legit, but sometimes a legit issue becomes a convenient excuse.
I would get on a plane and fly around the World! Which I could do today , WITH emet, if I put my mind to it...I'm sure there's a lot of people who would love to travel but can't because of other limitations eg. financial strains etc. . .SO emetophobia isn't going to stop me!
I'd be happy, and go on so many roller coasters and I'd live my life to the fullest.
If my fear vanished, I think that I would do the same things that I do now, only more relaxed.
I would be me again!
I would go on my hands and knees thanking GOD while crying of exteme happiness and try to undo all the things that I messed up while having this horrible phobia. I will finally be FREE.
It would be a gigantic weight off my shoulders. I think I would ditch my antibacterial wipes, eat some seafood without the post-eating panic attack and run around my house laughing like a maniac and celebrating my new freedom ^_^
I'd go back to school.
I would cry
OMG I would EAT EVERYTHING! LoL! But mostly I would thank GOD for curing me!

When In doubt, God prays to Hoffman
I would cry...b/c I'm a crier lol and thank God and I would move or travel like crazy!
i'd celebrate in someway, feel free to drink more freely whenever i do and not worry about how much i have had.
i'd be liberated in my desire to travel and see and experience things.
i'd probably try rides in theme parks and have little to no fear in fast moving cars and trains, high heights, etc.
i'd travel over 3'000 miles to meet the love of my life.
i'd eat more freely, eat full meals and be less fearful to actually fill my stomach up (i fear having a full stomach).
and really, i'd just be FREE.
Kyle - your post hits home for me because everything you mention - I really relate to.
Sincerely,
David
I would probably faint, cry, and then move in with my boyfriend (FINALLY!).
I would praise God! Over and over to anyone who would listen! I would hug my kids and take them to museums and theme parks and on vacations. I would show them what a normal Mommy looks like and how to live life free from chains. I would go out dancing in a club! I would lov eChristmas again and getting together with my family for dinner. I would spend more time laughing and less time scrubbing. I WOULD EAT A PIZZA!!!!!!! Man I am energized to work on my exposure therapy! Just thinking about this stuff makes me wonder why I live my life this way. What would happen if I just stopped? Hmmm.....

I would thank God for guiding me in the right direction to finally be over this.
I actually copied my answer to my desktop so I can read it everyday. I shared it with my Husband as well. Thanks for starting this awesome thread!

My wish for you is that you accomplish all those things by the end of this year! Wouldn't that be an awesome way to start the new year?
I would stop asking my two yr old if her tummy hurts every hour.
I would head back to school and chill with my friends.
I would go to parties and have fun
I would move to Italy or France for a Gap Year
I'd be happy.
OMG. So many things. This really is an inspiring thread to make me realize how many things my emetophobia is holding me back from doing. I'd probably go on a road trip. I'd love to go on one. And I'd visit my friends at school along the way.
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.
