A weird thing about me
So I have alcohol on my mind because I am thinking about cutting back. I know I’m feeling this way just because I had a bit more than usual throughout the holidays and I’m just feeling gross about it. I feel like sharing about my emetophobia and drinking, so here goes:
A lot of you emets out there may be surprised that I drink alcohol. It definitely aggravates my phobia at...
Beer and cookies
Why do I do this to myself? I feel like crap. Lol. I got paranoid about the chicken I cooked last night and didn’t eat it. Instead I downed like 6 freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and drank 4 beers. I feel so gross right now. My stomach is a mess. When will I learn?
everythingitseemz:
Emetophobia is clinically considered an “elusive predicament” because limited research has been done pertaining to it.
I’m yet to have a doctor actually know what I have.

Wondering .... A question for emetophobes
I’m overtired and my stomach has been hurting and making weird noises all day. Some little boy was vomiting into a shopping bag at my work. I didn’t see it, but knowing it was happening still put me on edge. I was sitting here thinking about how tired I am and how I hope I don’t wake up in a panic or wake up vomiting (eeeeek). Then I got to reading a post by another emetophobe...
Anxiety
Having such bad Anxiety that I can barely type this. Maybe I’ll elaborate tomorrow

Day 05- A time you thought about ending your own...
Jesus, this question is a bit heavy. I will answer though. I have in the past when I felt like I wasn’t normal, at times when my anxiety was so paralyzing, I didn’t feel functional.

Article in today's paper
This article is in today’s “Daily Hampshire Gazette”. It’s about phobias and exposure therapy, and highlights a teen’s struggle with emetophobia. http://www.gazettenet.com/2010/12/14/life-more-just-little-scary-truly-phobic-there-cure?SESS418b0592d09437e9d21b7fdd13bb9324=gnews
Day 04- My views on religion
Religion. Hmmm. I think it is very important and a powerful thing. I do not follow any religious belief system fully. I like the inspiration, faith, and love religion can build. I do not think there should still be wars over religion. I don’t think there is one correct answer.

Day 03- My views on drugs and alcohol
I think alcohol and most drugs are pretty hard on the system. I don’t think it’s wise to try hard drugs. I think most prescription drugs are pretty terrible too. I don’t think marijuana is harmful in any serious way. I like it for cramps, queasiness and headaches. I don’t like how it makes me feel if I smoke more than what it takes to relieve those issues. It usually makes...

Day 02- Where I'd like to be in 10 years
Hmmm. Well I’d like mostly everything to stay the same. Hopefully we’ll be making more money by then. Maybe have another child and maybe a bigger house and a dog. Atleast one of us should have written a book by then as well. :) lol

Day 01 Current Relationship
I am very happily married to my husband Matt. We have been married for almost a year and a half and together for over 2 years. We are really good together because overall we are extremely similar in our beliefs, and thought processes. We definitely differ in many ways as well. For example: he tends to speak before he thinks things through and I overthink to the point that I don’t speak...

Work
So I have a new job that I’ve had for about a month. It’s decent for a retail environment. Everyone I work with is nice and it’s not a stressful place. I just don’t really like it. I sort of have a complex when it comes to work. I mean I get along well with people and I probably seem fairly confident. Some personalities I have trouble with at any job, but at this job I seem to be working with...

Ugh, I hate this so much. I don’t feel well. I have indigestion and feel weirdly bloated. I’m stressed bc I know I’ve been more lax about washing my hands. Plus we have a new kitten that keeps walking allover the table. (germs) These days that stuff alone doesn’t worry me, but combined with feeling nauseated it does. I just really don’t want to puke ever. I...

spiffybarbarella asked: Hey. I also had mild emetophobia for a while. Not as serious as what you described in your blog post, but mainly with eating certain foods, travelling, etc. things I knew would be likely to provoke such a response.
I have had anorexia nervosa as a teenager, and was suspected of bulemia, which I found grossly unfair because I find it unable to make myself puke on account of my fear. I...

Was it just me or was today just a really blahhhh day? I’m in western mass and it was just horribly gloomy and rainy. Going to work in the evening helped me snap out of my blah thankfully. But now that work revved me up I can’t sleep… (oh the problems never cease!) ;)
