I have always had a fear of being around vomit (though I am not afraid of vomiting myself). It's really embarrassing, because I can't go to carnivals and places with spinny rides because of the chances someone will throw up. I also don't watch a lot of different television shows (mostly medical shows, comedy shows, and other shows where vomit is common). I can't watch movies by myself unless it has no vomiting in it, or a friend told me exactly where the vomiting is so I can close my eyes and plug my ears. Of course, all of this is an issue, but a problem that I have had to face lately is the lack of understanding from my friends and family. They get angry when I do everything I can to avoid being in the situation where someone vomits. They also make fun of me, and sometimes pretend to vomit around me. I've tried telling them to stop, but they don't listen. Have you guys had similar experiences with the people around you? It's just stressin' me out![]()
