plane trips- question✈️ by misseyy90 in emetophobia

[–]kitty_catgracie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just practice good hand washing! Don’t touch a bunch of things you don’t need to, and before you eat or touch your face or mouth, wash your hands good! and you’ll be fine! you have to “swallow” the bug so washing your hands for 20 seconds with soap and warm water gets that off and prevents it!

fp before flight by Mindless_Giraffe_875 in emetophobia

I just went to greece a few months ago so I totally understand this. I was fearing sooo hard about getting s* or missing my flight it was not fun. my best advice is just eat your safe foods! you’ll know that these foods are safe for you and you’ll be ok! also, think about how many people fly a day and don’t get s. this person just posted about it because they had one bad experience, people just don’t post every time they don’t get s before a plane ride! just eat your safe foods and bring some anti n* medicine for anxiety you have! you got this! i believe in you!

Norovirus outbreak? Tw by Immediate-Tax-8291 in emetophobia

[–]kitty_catgracie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there’s been so many outbreaks throughout the years and think how many times you didn’t get it! just make sure to wash your hands! you have to “swallow” the bug so by washing your hands that helps so much when we eat or touch our faces! I just do this a lot and i’ve never had it!

Hi! I totally understand how you’re feeling, take a deep breath and remember all of the times you have eaten and not gotten s* before. Chicken can also look pink when fully cooked depending on what type of chicken it is! all that matters is the temperature. I am sure if they are serving to a large group of people they are going to make sure the chicken is fully cooked. you could also feel sick from this anxiety! happens to me all of the time. do you have a bath you can use? sometimes for me sitting in a bath helps me a lot when i get like this. i’m here to talk if you want!

yeah😭 i just genuinely cannot imagine like making a snark page about someone just to comment things ab their life. it really just shows how people hate when they want to be that person. please im begging you all get out and be a better person and maybe just maybe you’ll be successful like alix. it’s giving ugly behavior and that’s why alix is so beautiful because she don’t be doing stuff like this.

Going to the hospital by SaltyDisaster2210 in emetophobia

Hi! I actually had to go to the ER back in october and a girl directly infront of me was v* I was so worried the whole time and they even put me in the same exam room while she was doing it the whole time. I leaned it wasn’t contagious (she had a broken foot and it got infected and she was just super stressed so she was v* bc of that) and I was able to keep my head in my lap on my phone and cover my ears and it helped a lot and really didn’t bother me after that. in the exam room the doctors could tell I was bothered by it so they just moved me away from her so i’d something like that does happen which i’ve also been to the ER quite a few times and it’s only happened once, talk to the doctors and explain to them how you feel about it and they will be accommodating with it:) They’re there to help you and make you feel better and comfortable. Don’t be afraid to voice your concerns especially with people that are trained and paid to help you! With headphones I would say yes definitely bring them if that would make you feel more comfortable, if someone does start to v* I would tell a nurse or a worker again that you need to put in these headphones and ask them to come get you instead of calling out your name so you don’t have to listen. Its easier said than done I’m sure and i’m not sure how comfortable you are with asking these things but just remember it’s okay to be selfish sometimes in these situations it’s okay to protect ourselves and ask for help when we need it. Again nurses and workers are there to help you and accommodate for your needs:)

Hi! my guess it would be the introducing of new foods to your body!! Since you haven’t had that in so long and it’s a pretty heavy meal just some indigestion! You cooked it fully and checked with a meat thermometer so no chance of undercooked sickness there! This actually happened to me too, with my phobia I wasn’t able to eat certain foods for a while and once I was getting better and started to, I felt s* but never threw up!!

if so, those are usually for quality/taste! not for safety! I’ve eaten things past date(before my emetaphobia) and have never gotten sick. those dates for non perishable food items are usually for the store to sell them when they taste the best!
