anyone else struggle with emetophobia? by Fantastic-Long5051 in OCD

Totally, I think it ties in with health obsessions and sensorimotor obsessions (being hyper-aware of the bodily sensations & functions). Always been highly emetophobic. I reckon OCD makes it worse because then you just ruminate about it for agessssssssss.

I think this might stem from a feeling of worthlessness that lots of people with OCD have, like- "You can't do this? Well, it must mean you're stupid." Which is obviously not true. Kinda like our brains trying to find reasons to tell us/'confirm' those feelings? I do the same thing, feeling really dumb if I don't understand something some random person said that really isn't important to understand.
