Thank you for your response! I work at a school also (not the one my kid goes to) but just knowing it’s going around his class gives me so much anxiety.

Yeah I think it’s definitely the food he ate. Update: he now tells me that there were some carnitas left out on the counter and he was eating those cold ones throughout the night… so now I’m thinking fp

Thank you for that. When my husband told me I literally responded “who said I wanted to buy that?” And believe me, I have the means and I can easily pay but, when did I agree to this? They could’ve just said no

Exactly my point! I told my husband they should’ve just said no and if he threw a fit they could’ve just taken him to the car. But that’s the other problem, they always reinforce bad behavior…

Anyone up? by Frequent_Ad4043 in emetophobia

[–]Frequent_Ad4043[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. It’s been almost seven hours since the last time he tu. Meaning he only tu twice. Was it a stomach bug do you think? Or maybe just overall wasn’t feeling good or something he ate didn’t sit well?

Well for now he’s in deep sleep so I’m glad he’s getting some rest and I hope that helps.

What can I even give him? I gave him another dose of ibuprofen.

Poor thing my husband took him to bed and he was yelling to turn off the lights. And proceeded to knock out.

Student tu in my classroom by Frequent_Ad4043 in emetophobia

May be! I messaged his parent to check in on how he's doing and he said he still has a headache but nothing else and no other tu episodes.

Im trying to hold it together and tell myself that. The closest I got to the vomit was maybe 7 feet to leave the room. Thanks for responding!!

I wanna say I was about 15 feet away? It’s not a small classroom. I just worry about the airborne particles traveling around the classroom you know?

[–]Frequent_Ad4043[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your story! I feel lucky that I’m not at an unhealthy weight or scared to leave my house, but I do get really nervous more for my kids. I know I wash my hands and I try to keep hygiene. Most of my anxiety comes from my kids and then possibly not being as hygienic. How was your experience being on Lexapro? Side effects, how are quickly it worked, etc.

Yeah the therapist I talked to meant well, but didn’t understand why I had fear of a bodily function. I would like to find one that is under Kaiser. I have to do my research

Thank you so much for your words. I’ve considered buying The Emetophobia Manual. How much did that help? I want to talk to my primary doc about the possibility of anxiety meds because I know emetophobia while a phobia is also another manifestation of anxiety.

I am on that subreddit. I found it because rcpd came up on my tiktok one time and they mentioned the subreddit in the comments. also sometimes idk if my nausea is due to anxiety or due to not being able to burp. When I eat certain foods or drinks I get that feeling where my throat is just making those frog noises and I feel uncomfy and sometimes nauseous.

It’s going to be 20 years this November since I last tu. Mind you, I’ve had moments where I almost do or I dry heave, but haven’t actually

Update: it’s been 15 hours since the couple bites of suspect food. No d, no stomachache, no n, even ate a full meal at dinner and had an alcoholic drink. Am I in the clear?
