Re: Nausea
Don’t be ashamed of your fear! I’m emetophobic too, it’s no different to any other fear and just as valid.
Nausea is one of the main things I get from anxiety, a lot of people do actually, it’s very common. Often fear or nerves make even the most ‘normal’ of person feel queasy.
The problem isn’t the nausea itself it’s our reaction to it, we train our brains that it’s something to be reactive too, therefore making it much worse. I’m terrified of being sick, but in turn I can identify what’s anxiety nausea and what isn’t, my doctor also gives me antiemetics to have just in case I feel really bad, it gives me a lot more confidence. That being said I’ve never been sick due to anxiety, just felt it.
