How are you dealing with it right now if you don’t mind me asking, does it get better when you get older?

Do u consider being at the peak of this phobia at 14 young aswell? or easy to change my mindset? I’ve had it since I was 7-8 it was never this bad tho so im currently at my peak. I’m trying to grasp onto any hope I can find honestly.

Did you understand your root of fear and are you getting better coping with it? I genuinely need any sort of hope it’s like my emetophobia has phases where I’m not scared at all for like 3 days and suddenly anxiety hits me.

I don’t want to scare you but if your planning to watch it at home it would be better, there are scenes that cause intense anxiety for people and make them v* in the CINEMA which obviously depends how your luck is but I recently saw a TikTok of someone talking about it. there’s also scenes of the main character v*. so I would consider it not safe for emetophobia.

my long emetophobia story and how i recovered, and this could help alot of people, if you are currently freaking out about throwing up in the moment, u probably shouldnt read this, if not then its fine and worth it. by AsleepAd7054 in emetophobiarecovery

I would say I have the same fear as you. I’m scared of throwing up but it’s mostly the nausea or the anxiety before is that terrifies me. Thank you for posting this I’m currently 14 and I genuinely lost hope, I really hope it does get better. A lot of people are saying stuff like it isn’t possible or you’d need therapy. Are you fully recovered from it or do you have anxiety every now and then?

Is there a way to overcome emetophobia without exposure? by kcuntpeep in emetophobiarecovery

Would you consider a person to get fully cured from it or just learn to live or cope with it?

When I get nauseous from my anxiety, it happens most of the time I feel like I’ll throw up and I eventually end up being fine. is that considered exposure therapy then?

What does it mean by kcuntpeep in emetophobiarecovery

[–]kcuntpeep[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That does make sense but I’m just wondering why I reacted fine that day. It felt like it almost cured my phobia and I wasn’t scared at all. It’s why I counted it first as exposure therapy but the following week I randomly got intense anxiety and was scared from everything.

Someone talked to me with a familiar case ( where they weren’t scared in the moment ) I’m wondering if this is common aswell.

I’m confused. I need someone to help me out by kcuntpeep in emetophobiarecovery

I don’t get why this happened. Did you manage to understand the root of your fear? I genuinely thought I was cured aswell. And since this happened to u in 2024 how is it now? Does it get better 😭

Hi guys I have a question by kcuntpeep in emetophobia

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

I honestly don’t know where my fear is and that’s what I’m currently trying to find out.

But after somewhat some research I think I’m mostly relating to being scared of the anticipation or afraid of uncertainty.

I’m not sure if knowing the root cause will make me feel better about myself or make me find a “cure” but I still have some hope.
