    I was just wondering that even if I haven’t conquer it fully, how will I know I have conquered it a bit or even mostly.

    Re: How did your emetophobia start?

    My earliest memory of being afraid of v* is when my dad yelled at me for doing it in front of him and my mom. I don’t even remember being afraid when I first got sick on the stairway on my way to...
  4. Re: After 12 years, It happened (triggers)

    Yeah, that seems to be what most, if not all people, say: That your anxiety makes your v* experience worse. The thrive program book for Emetophobia even says it makes it worse.

    Emetophobia and loss of control

    It’s often been said that Emetophobes fear a loss of control, but that doesn’t make sense to me. I don’t fear sneezing or coughing or even having diarrhea. The only thing I fear when I have diarrhea...

    Re: Haven't thrown up since I was 8

    Yeah, I don’t want to rely on my gravol either whenever I feel nauseas. I wish I could just “let it happen”.
