If you think that you have it bad wait until you hear about this. Emetophobia. The irrational fear of vomiting. Short summary of my life and the way that this stupid disease presents itselfFor the record i have had Emetophobia since i was 16 after I had the misfortune of vomiting in front of my boyfriend. Ever since I have been deathly afraid of vomiting. So let's start with how this affects my life.I can't drink alcohol, find traveling immensely challenging due to fear of vomiting in an enclosed space. Even having friends is hard, since socializing amplifies my fear of vomiting. This sucks because I still desire to have friendships and a boyfriend. Unfortunately im presented with two shitty options.A. Cut all contacts with people and live my life like a hikikomori. (Would be very good for my managing my emetophobia) but I would have to give up my dreams of fitting in.B, Have friends and a bf and feel like shit all the time.On my worst days I would very much prefer shutting myself in my room and rest because that is the only thing that gives me peace, but that is not compatible with having a job. They would fire me if I did this. Every day is hell because the fear of vomiting occupies my mind.
have friends and bf and then intentionally drink until you vomit to get over it. they'll show sympathy, help, laugh at or with you depending on the mood and it'll be fine.

>>84784865>I can't drink alcoholgood luck
>>84784952no shit. that kinda stuff is what got me over some of mine.
When I was your age, I was vomiting in front of people all the time.I remember one time, in uni, I was walking to class with a buddy. We'd been up all night partying. Still drunk. Mid-stride, the liquor came up. Let it out without missing a step. Some students were out on a 3rd floor balcony of the science building, saw me projectile vomit, and started cheering. Wasn't my first time, they could see I was a real pro.
>>84784952>but isn't that only for people with cancer??Nope, it's for anyone with persistent nausea. I complained about nausea/stomach problems a few times and eventually was given a prescription. That was 6 years ago and I've been allowed to refill my prescription since.
