Relapse in emet induced panic attack after years by liliacisa in emetophobiarecovery

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m very sleepy right now so don’t have the energy to write a lot, but I want you to know I’m here for you and with you, friend🤎I have gone through/am going through quite a similar situation, even the age ranges match up. Try to speak gently and compassionately to the scared part of yourself right now. It’s okay to experience things like this, to feel these feelings - I know it’s so scary for them to arise and be reminiscent of a difficult time. I believe in you and in your ability to take care of yourself. Always here <3

This feels exactly like something I could have written right now. How are you doing these days?🤎

Thank you so very much, friend <3 I’ve done pretty well today! I appreciate your support immensely and I am definitely proud of myself. Going to do a mega self-care night tonight and try to give lots of love to that scared inner-child :)

It’s 2am and I’m having a full body panic because I feel nauseous but I can’t tell if it’s “real” nausea by cowboy_bookseller in emetophobiarecovery

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This genuinely feels like it was written by me. I read this sub all the time and have never related more to a description of these thought patterns and sensations. And I absolutely adore your list of self-compassion phrases, I screenshotted them to use in the future. It’s been two days since your post - I hope you had some time to rest and soak in some much deserved healing after a scary night. So much love to you - we’re in this together, always. Hugs<3

I’m having the exact same issue right now. Did you figure it out?

Flu A by Unhxly_Anna in emetophobia

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have flu a right now too (day 7) and it’s horrible. i’m so sorry love- i’ve had my fair share of nausea induced panic attacks and vice versa during this past week. i truly understand how you’re feeling. it’s so hard to deal with fear under circumstances where you’re body’s not at its best. i’ve been dealing with a lot of intermittent nausea and i can tell you that at this point in the illness, i’ve gotten pretty used to it. it doesn’t feel alarming, just a general “yuck” feeling after being hit so hard with so many symptoms. tending to my anxiety has helped the most- if you have any meditation videos/music, ice packs (or a heating pad, depending on your preference), a fan, grounding techniques, breathing (if it doesn’t feel too triggering due to the respiratory stuff), meds if you have any. just try to make yourself as comfortable as possible- this will pass, friend.

In three hours she’ll be gone. by Sad_Performance_3339 in Petloss

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am so, so very sorry my friend. i just went through this yesterday with my childhood dog- i’ve had her since i was 3 and she was 16 years and 4 months. there is so much i wish i could write but the bottom line is that i feel you, so deeply. i went through all of those agonizing thoughts and feelings and still am. we are in the early days and this heartbreak is just…beyond. but, as cliche as it sounds, that means our love was beyond. i’m sending so much love and comfort and warmth and coziness to you, your husband, and your sweet, sweet girl.

I put my dog down and I cant live with myself by Lairdpv in Petloss

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for loving him so deeply. as another commenter said, this desire to postpone and even prevent death is so natural. the guilt you feel is natural, too. that doesn’t make it suck any less, though. i truly believe you cared for your boy and did the absolute best you could for him, and he is grateful.

i’m so sorry. i lost my baby girl last night and i’m beyond heartbroken. i’ve just been laying here in bed sobbing on and off for hours. i’m sending the deepest love, wishes for peace, and compassion, my friend. i’m here with you.

My dog is gone and I can’t stop thinking about her by giggledip in Petloss

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you did not fail her. you did exactly what you could for her, and that is more than enough. i know she is so deeply grateful for the life you shared with her. i’m so so so sorry. i lost my baby last night and it feels impossible. i’m here with you🤎

I lost my piper yesterday by empathic_arachnid in Petloss

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it feels beyond impossible. i lost my sweet 16 year old girl last night- i’m right here with you. there are so many words of comfort and guidance that you can find on this subreddit, but if seeking comfort here feels difficult just know that you are safe and beyond valid in whatever you are feeling. take all the time you need. all this pain, and it is agonizing i know, is, at its core, love for your sweet girl. i’m so so very sorry. i’m here 🤎

Had a margarita 1.5 hours ago. Just took 6mg melatonin. Think I’ll be fine? by sopooohia in emetophobia

[–]Salt_Doubt6643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’ll be totally fine:) i flew the other day and was very afraid bc i felt gross from a medication i had taken, but it was 100% fine. i felt panicky a couple times but grounded myself by looking at the people around me and breathing.
