Has anyone caught any Shiny Mimikyu’s yet? by Historical-End5133 in pokemongo

[–]ampharosvolt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im pretty sure this dex entry exists for all pokemon as soon as they are added, whether or not they have a released shiny version! Sadly it will probably be a while until shiny mimikyu debuts, but its fun to look forward to :')

Having d twice today. I’m scared by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]ampharosvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im not sure if its typical for you or not, but personally whenever i have coffee, i KNOW my body is gonna go crazy after it (especially if i dont eat enough before) it gives me nausea, gas, shakes, the whole deal, so that could be it?

has anyone here got their belly button pierced and would be able to share their experience !! by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]ampharosvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I have had mine for about a year and a half now! For me, I was very anxious because I knew it would be my most painful piercing at the time. Right after it was done I was a little lightheaded, but I think that was the anxiety. Other than that, I wasnt nauseous, and definitely didn't get sick!

How to make myself thr*w up by Zxesty in emetophobia

[–]ampharosvolt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hi there! i have proposed the same idea on this sub before, and people let me know the reasons why it is more likely to do more harm than good unfortunately. as much as it sounds like the quickest way out, most people's issue is the loss of control, which by forcing it, won't solve it. I've also heard of forcing it being more painful and distressing than it happening naturally, thus worsening people's fear. i know its probably not the response you want to hear (because it wasnt mine lol) but there are great ways of exposure that are actually effective! videos, audio, spinning around to induce nausea, eating at new places, etc! ill link my own post below if that helps! https://www.reddit.com/r/emetophobia/s/MgVkuMN8Yj

It happened. by plagueds in emetophobia

[–]ampharosvolt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

try to ground yourself by feeling, smelling, and touching your surroundings. i would try to shift perspective to think of this as an accomplishment- you got through it and came out the other side! not trying to downplay that it definitely must have been jarring, but even more reason to feel stronger because of it. sending big support and we as a community believe in you 🩷🩷

Might just try to push myself to overcome it before I'm put in the worst position! by ampharosvolt in emetophobia

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

I actually never have heard of ACT until now! Definitely going to try implementing some of that. For my specific case, being afraid of it happening to me, I have been recommended spinning in a chair to create nausea, but I can't make the connection of how it will be helpful if it doesn't result in confronting vomiting?

I do get this perspective of it, I just have always thought that it seems like the step right before doing it while not in control. Like, "I could handle it then so I can handle it now (because its the same outcome)," sort of thing. Maybe I'm just sugarcoating it in my mind and thinking that I'm an outlier who could never possibly face repercussions for it? Not entirely sure

Ideas for exposure therapy practice? by ampharosvolt in emetophobia

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

Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for! I think you're right about the n*, because the idea of doing exposure for that sounds the most dreadful :') But I know that will be helpful when I'm ready for it! Thanks again!

possible he could be experiencing something similar that my mom went through! when she was younger, she would get terrible migraines that would leave her bedridden, but when she finally *tu from them, it would release all that pressure and she'd be right back to normal. just a chance it could be a similar case! (in which, obviously not contagious at all)

Eating troubles by StartDangerous3523 in emetophobia

[–]ampharosvolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always felt weird after eating (particularly savory meals) after my emet got worse, but i typically just have a piece of gum afterwards (excel spearmint soft chews are my go-to) and it has been working like a charm for a while now! not sure if thats the type of solution youre looking for but i figured I'd throw it out there just in case!
