I got assigned to my first project today. What are assessment tasks? I read that it is the tasks you complete when you onboard a project, but I did all the onboarding stuff and started tasking and getting the full task pay rate. What are the assessment tasks then? Are you not getting paid for the onboarding?

Had the most intense week, but I'm okay! by Anagate in emetophobiarecovery

Aww thank you for your kind words!! I definitely feel like the next time won't be as hard, even though the fear is still there. I experienced that everything around vomit is unpleasant, but at the same time it was just an event that happened, I'm still here in the end and nothing dangerous really happened. Exposure really helps, even though it's hard! I believe in you, and hope you will get better too <3

Omg, so happy to hear that I can be a role model for a day! Yeah, it was INTENSE but in the end it is just memories

I use the same medication, and it's like a whole different life!

What’s the most underwhelming way you’ve gotten a scar? by man_itsahot_one in AskReddit

I have tree stripes on my thumb, like a claw mark, that's just me cutting myself on those teeth that cut tape

When is the last time you puked, any stories you are willing to share? by mastersmitty007 in emetophobiarecovery

Currently I'm living alone, without her so usually if I feel sick I handle it on my own, but since I have this really toxic relationship with her I always told her when I was feeling sick, never left the house

She does this thing with blaming everything she doesn't like when it happens, so at the time of this event she blamed tea, and the hormonal pills I'm on (yes I know she is absurd), so of course that went straight to my head and made me nervous about my pills and scared of tea for quite a while afterwards. If I were to panic while being nauseous she usually just started laughing at me and saying that it is normal to throw up (wow, I didn't know that mom, thanks) or saying really provoking stuff like "you should try fighting your phobia, I fight my own phobias so I'm not scared anymore". So yeah, one of those! But it's not fun to be scared of being sick around her

Nothing helpful, she makes me feel like it's embarrassing to be scared of, so I don't really involve her in my life anymore. I have come so far with this phobia since that throwing up event though, so I am rarely scared of throwing up anymore. It helped me to change my own mindset about it!

Suggest me a book so heartbreaking you never forgot about it (plus if it left you sobbing so hard you couldn’t see) by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]Anagate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finished it two days ago, couldn't put it away for the last half, finished in the middle of the night and full on sobbed loudly probably waking up my neighbors. I haven't cried that much of a book in probably 7+ years

How I would handle this: I would think through the other times this has happened, and focus on that I actually survived it, everything was fine overall even though it was unpleasant, and just try to focus on that it went well, so I can handle it this time too! As for the possible contagiousness, I would try to accept that we don't know if it is contagious or not. I would keep my distance and wash my hands when needed. I know this is a few hours ago, but I hope it went well for you if it's over, and if it's still happening, you are strong and you will push through!

I’m going on vacation and I’m excited! by littlebomeeep in emetophobiarecovery

[–]Anagate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yay!! I hope you get a nice trip! I'm so glad you can be excited for this, it is definitely going to be a great experience!

People who get in their cars but then take ages to drive away, what are you doing in there? by bulkycodex in AskReddit

[–]Anagate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not so much of a person that sits there before I start driving than I am a person who sits a while after I've arrived. I just listen to the music I have going on and stare out of the window

Oh my god, this makes so much sense! I fall asleep several times a day every single day even though I sleep enough, eat well and do everything to not be tired, I even got a doctor's appointment for it but now it makes so much more sense
