[size=1]Hi my name is Caitlyn i live in the USA and im 15. I suffer from emetophobia(fear of vomiting)[xx(] and anxiety/panic attack. I never really had a serious panic attack there was just one time for about 10 minutes i was convinced i was having a heart attack and couldnt stop crying but thats about it. The rest is really anxiety attacks. Email me at xixcaitlynxix@aol.com. I'd be happy to complain to you lol:D or if you need someone to listen.[/size=3]

HI Caitlyn,

You are certainly not alone in the fear of vomiting.
We have several memebers who have this too.

Best of luck with dealing with this.

Hi Caitlyn

Welcome to the site.

You can search for fellow emetophobia sufferers by entering that word in the search box at the top of the screen. There are quite a few posts on it.

At the top of the screen there is a "search" facility. Just click on the word "search" and then you will be able to enter any words that you want to search for in the forum.

Hope that helps?

Hi Caitlyn

Don't worry, you really are not the only person frightened of being sick - when I have my panic attacks the worst thing about them is that nauseous feeling, it makes me shake like mad a cry like a woman possessed.

Good luck, you are in the right place to meet some great friends and get some good advice.

Hi Caitlyn,

Thats total 100 page views. I probably account for at least 7 of them as I check the forum regularly and have seen it between posts too as will have Nic and Sarah.

Not everyone who participates here reads every post as it is extremely time consuming.

It has nothing to do with being boring. You have a specific problem and some people may not feel they have any experience to add so don't take the numbers as any sort of reflection of anything.

Its good to have you here.

Caitlyn,

I agree entirely with Meg.

Please don't take it personally if not many people reply.

I read all the posts but do not reply to many of them because I either have no experience of a particular problem or I don't know what advise to give!

Carry on posting and anyone who can help WILL help!

Hiya Caitlyn

As a moderator I check this site several times a day so I would probably count for about 15 reads on my own so dont worry about it.

Take care
Love Sarah

Hi Caitlyn

Hope you are well?

I am very lucky that I have great moderators that check for new posts all the time so as they say the "read" count can be high!

Are you doing ok?
