It's nice to know I'm not as freaky as I thought! I've NEVER met another emetophobe in person. It's been a lot worse this year, because I threw up in April. I can seriously count the number of times it's happened since I was five on one hand, so when it happened this year it took away the only thought that kept me from completely freaking out: "it'll be okay, I never do!" As a consequence, my IBS has been a lot worse this year, and nausea is one of my main symptoms. I'm still learning to tell the difference between IBS nausea, hungry nausea and panic nausea though. My whole year has been a vicious cycle of panic and IBS problems. I think it might be time to invest in some quality healthcare (ie, not the university doctor and counsellor, who think I'm a neurotic self-diagnosing psychology student!).
