Hello all,


Well I was watching Jeremy Kyle this morning(sad I know)and a woman was on the show with emetaphobia, I have suffered with this from around the age of 5, I am 33 tommorow. I did not even begin to realise there was a site like this to offer help and support, and along with many assumed I was in a minority with this hateful phobia!! I tried seeing a psychotherapist many years ago but felt they didnt understand and feared I would be shown v* or someone doing it!! I couldnt stand the thought so gave up!! I hate this taking over my life and that of my family, has anyone any suggestions for me to remain more positive?? [img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]

Hello, thanks so much for the very prompt reply, I feel like a small weight has been lifted from my shoulders being able to talk about this with people who understand what I go through, would be interested in any ideas or therapies you or others have tried xx[img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]
