    Hi Suzuki

    A warm welcome aboard and lovely to see you here.

    We do have quite a few other posts about emetophobia so these may help you as well..

    You could ask to be referred for some CBT that may help or have you considered alternative treatments such as EFT?

    Hope we can be of some help anyway.

    Welcome aboard

    Sickness phobia is very common and you are not alone. Read the posts here, find comfort and perhaps consider some CBT to help you overcome it.

    Take Care,
