My Phobia has ruined my whole education to be quite frank. I was bullied a lot,and hated school in general. School buses made me nauseous. I used to take a Litre bottle of juice with dissolvable paracetamol. I had no idea why,i was terrified and blames it on claustrophobia,which i have a tiny pit of because i panic in confined spaces.
Anyway,I had so many days off that the minister for attendance had to have a meeting with me.
Then we reach college,i would get ill quite a bit,but like i wanted to go to college,but my emeteophobia was still there i said i didn't drink and this meant less of my friends would ask me to come.
Then when i started my job a while ago,I noticed I've turned into something of. Mysophobiac washing my hands repeatedly and carrying hand sanitizer in the winter because all i hear about is friends posting "Don't feel well,been sick" And i panic,and avoid that person until not contagious
But the one thing i noticed,us emetophobiacs are very robust when we are ill so unlikely to spew because our minds tell us no. To me my phobia has kind of ruined my education and social life

My tip to you,carry medication like aspirin or paracetamol,it calms your mind knowing you have them,and take a hand sanitizer.
And learn from my mistakes.

Don't panic
