Some Comforting Thoughts

[MakeHerProud]

I developed emetophobia last year, when I was 18. But I haven't v'd since I was seven years old. Right now, I am going to list some of the things that I have done where I have NOT v'd...and neither would you (most likely). Don't judge me...most of these things happened when I was an 8 year old.

1. Eaten food off the floor.
2. Been on wild rollercoastes.
3. Been on rocking boats.
4. Went crazy on a merry-go-round.
5. Shared food with people.
6. Shared drinks with people.
7. Gotten norovirus.
8. Not washed my hands after going to the bathroom.
9. Not washed my hands before preparing food.
10. Eaten at some nasty and shady food places.
11. Dissected a cat.

I would never do some of these things (now that I know about being sanitary...) and now that I have emetophobia. But I have done them, and nothing has happened to me and I find it very comforting...hopefully you will too!

it's good to remember all these things to keep the emet from getting to you........your rational mind knows that you can do all these things and not get sick.......so try and keep these good thougths and continue to do them.....don't let emet take over....
