Hi everyone,
Just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully find others with Emetophobia as i have never spoke to any emetophobes! A lil bit about me - ive had Emetophobia for 25 yrs(since i was 3) and am phobic of both myself being sick and others. Im getting worse all the time and noone seems to understand especially my gps surgery. At the moment I have a semi functioning day to day life but only barely. I suffer constant anxiety and panic and take a daily cocktail of anti emetics incase I feel sick. I only feel safe when im at home and have started to dread going out even to the local shops. Ive seen a pyschologist,had CBT,been prescribed antideppressants which i wouldnt take and had valium for a month or so (which worked!)
If anyone else has emetophobia i would really like to chat to you.
Thanks,
