I've had emet. since i was four, i am now 32.
It is a worrying thought for us emetophobics getting a bug, but if you keep your hands clean..you should be okay :)

hi there Natzybabez' sorry that you have these worries,
Yeah kids do pick up alot of infections but they ALWAYS get over them, remember as a child all the childhood infections that u picked up??
Mumps, Measles, German Measles, Whooping cough etc etc but you came through right? Well if you got something this time around you would get over it too, anyhow we all become immune once we've had these irritating and "horrid things" its part and parcel of life unfortunately.
keep your immune system topped up with vitamins , good diet etc
Good health to you love Richie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hi,

i have the same phobia, im still at school and when im walking around i see everyone as 'unclean', and i might get a bug of them. i have now developed this thing about touching door handles and banisters in public places, and everything i see i can see millions of bad bacteria crawling over it.

MAX

ps i use this hand sanitiser which has really helped, it calle 'no germs' and its non alcohol as alcohol ones dont kill noro virus

I sometimes get this too i was at cleethorpes today and i was touching sand and metal bars and things that was dirty then i went and had a burger and i didn't dare eat with my hands so i had to cut it up which took about 2 hours.
