just haven't stopped panicking and feeling anxious like something is about to happen to me since about 6am worse is i dont eat on days like today as am emetophobic (fear of me vomiting) so this horrible nervous belly feeling puts me off eating have been bad for a while now am down to 6st and cant afford to lose anymore so i need to try and get past this not eating and just eat on a nervous sickly stomach but think if i eat i will be sick ???
does anyone eat on a nervous stomach & why do we lose appetite ??
aww its ok. I'm emetophobic too - when I get like this I tend to eat plain and dry stuff. Don't try and eat big meals, just try more smaller meals. I eat bananas, toast, biscuits yoghurt etc. Just try and eat slowly too.

i had a small roll toast this morning at 7am never ate it till about 10.30am and 3 digestives all between 7am & 12pm that's how long it took me to eat and there only small rolls & only had 1 that's how bad i am i hate this nervous stomach feeling !!!!!!!
then at hal1 had a ice cake with jam but i wanna get over this and just eat but dont feel i can my phobia has taken over my life and anxiety causing this nervous sickly stomach kicks it off :( as i no i need food and my stomach rumbling
I have been the same all today feeling something in my throat & got that horrible lump feeling along with waterybrash and
Have to keep swallowing everytwo muns really don't no what is up with me today just feel so anxious and panicky haven't calmed down all day and the sickly stomach really puts me off as am emetophobic :( I just wish it would go away just had an hours sleep and am still feeling horrible my belly is making the craziest rumbling noises ever and just feel so drained / depressed and just can't cope anymore with all this
Mine was really bad yesterday, I was really down about it but its not been so bad today - who knows what it will be like tomorrow.
My Dr thinks I have an irritated gullet due to fluoxetine capsules so has switched me to liquid, and that I have reflux and am anxious and thats why I have this feeling in throat, I have to keep a bottle of gaviscon advance nearby when the reflux gets bad. Mt Dr won't give me anything else as she said its all in capsule form and will just irritate my throat more. I just wish it would go away for good. I know what you mean about feeling it as your eating etc - I do especially in my back its horrible. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for all of us.

I am so glad i have found this thread, i thought i was going mad. I get that lump in the back feeling and tight chest and sometimes burning at back of throat. I just wondered if you had managed to get over these feelings. thanks Jayne x
Nope , mines still the same
It feels like indigestion at times , my back hurts inbetween my shoulder blades and when i swallow i feel the food hiting something on the way down. I also get the lump in the throat feeling aswell .
Had it since mid December , its no worse but no better either !
same here. Seeing my Gp again this week see what she says. will let you know x
