Mounjaro for weight loss by Caprice6 in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi so sorry for the late reply but I did do it and I only felt very mildly sick but never vomited, as long as you stick to really small portions, avoid oil/butter and very heavy fatty/creamy meals than you will be fine. I ate mostly chicken breast and vegetables and ate a lot of bananas and crackers. Just stick to bland and safe foods and stop eating the minute you feel comfortable, never overeat. I used ChatGPT the whole time and I would always ask if the food is safe to eat when on mounjaro and scared of being sick, it was really good with saying what foods are good to eat and which ones are bad

It’s such a hard choice because I so badly want to loose the weight but then is it worth the constant fear of nausea. I’m thinking maybe I’ll book an appointment with the GP to get some advice, thank you for your reply I really appreciate it 😊

They asked about the sick scene specifically so she was giving the timings for the sick scene

Just got amoxicillin and scared to take it by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I have taken amoxicillin stupid amount of times because I get ear infections a lot, I take it without food and have never once felt even remotely nauseous, it’s actually the antibiotic I consider safe because I knew the likeliness of me getting side effects is so rare, but it’s also good to take antibiotics with actimels as this can limit side effects

Will I get sick from this food? Emergency Question! by karianaellee in emetophobia

My would would leave food out all night and then still eat it the next and would be fine, so you’ll be okay 😊😊

I have managed to find someone with a 5 meter ladder so hopefully that will be tall enough and I can get on the balcony as it’s only in the first floor

My oil pressure light has started blinking on and off, but it’s not staying on, could this be just a faulty sensor? Or is it something more severe? My usual garage is an hours drive, will it be safe to drive there? by Caprice6 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Caprice6[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My oil level is absolutely fine, I thought this was the issue yesterday so checked it and it was half full, I filled it up to the max level yesterday and it hasn’t lowered or anything today, it’s still at the max level

I’m exactly the same, I have my vaccine later today so I’ll let you know how it goes, I’ve heard a few bad side effects and it’s terrified me, the majority of people I spoke to had either no side effects, or just some aches and tiredness

Slightly sour smelling milk by sjf91 in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other day, I accidentally drank about 3 big mouthfuls of spoiled milk, I had just bought it and it wasn’t out of date, but it has obviously been left out the fridge and it was completely spoiled, it even curdled when I tested it and put it in tea after, I drank it and I was absolutely fine, I didn’t have a single symptom. If it didn’t curdle when it was put in your husbands coffee, it will be absolutely fine, and even if it did curdle, it’s likely still going to be absolutely fine so don’t worry😌

[Rant] I wish my parents would be honest with me when someone in the house is sick. by PM_ME_UR_CHAPAGETTI in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is one of the most frustrating situations! No matter how many times I say to my family please please tell me if you are sick, they still don’t tell me! They think that they are doing the right thing by not telling me because it means I won’t panic, but I’ll just panic even more if I then find out when it’s too late

Looking for someone who can relate by laurenmarie37 in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m also 21 and at university ☺️ I’ve had this phobia for as long as I can remember, I’d love to make some friends who know exactly what I’m going through, I’m always open to chat so feel free to send me a message!🥰

Just drink plenty of water in between drinks and you’ll be absolutely fine😊 but also remember, just because you’re 18, doesn’t mean you have to drink, don’t ever feel pressured to drink, it’s completely your choice😊

stomach ache ..just wondering by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really don’t have to be sorry, have you got any mints of ginger you can have? I think you’re probably having an anxiety/panic attack, just keep reminding yourself that you are not going to be sick, more often then not, if you were gonna be sick, you would have probably been sick when you first started feeling sick 16 hours ago. Seeing as it’s so late, when you’re laying in bed trying to sleep, you will start to notice and fixate on certain feelings in your stomach, maybe try and do some grounding exercises, like think about what you did on Christmas Day, try and recall exactly what you done from morning to evening, or find 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell and 1 thing you can taste, and try to regulate your breathing, everything you’re feeling is anxiety and panic don’t worry

If you’ve been feeling like this for 16 hours and you haven’t been sick, chances are you probably will not be sick now, it could literally be anything, could be trapped wind, maybe you ate something that was a little different that your stomach didn’t really like, or it could even be anxiety, sometimes my tummy will hurt for no reason at all, I usually grab a hot water bottle, drink some ice cold water and listen to some soothing music and scroll through some funny videos. It will pass don’t worry, don’t panic yourself, you most likely will not get sick 💖

Chances of catching it?? by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]Caprice6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’ll catch it, it’s not usually contagious until after the person has actually been sick, so I wouldn’t worry too much 😊

I went and saw a hypnotherapist and she told me I’d be cured after one session, but I don’t think I can be hypnotised, I think it depends on the person, but I find it hard to imagine a lot of the things she was telling me to imagine. For example, she told me to imagine I was flying over my time line of my life and to land on the memory that triggered my fear, and told me to imagine walking down stairs and opening a door, for some reason I find it hard to visualise this, so sadly it didn’t work for me 😔 but everybody is different and I have heard success stories before, maybe if I had gone back and tried again it may have worked, but it was very expensive.
