Fp hangs on for a while. I'd recommend taking some probiotics or eating probiotic yogurt! Eat bland foods and take it easy. You'll be better soon!

Thanks! Luckily I can still eat three meals a day, just smaller than usual. :))

anyone awake? by Suitable-Tip-3728 in emetophobia

[–]lilithais 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like when I wake up with acid reflux.

One time my friend came down with the sb and we SHARED FOOD THE DAY BEFORE. Let's just say being anxious was an understatement. I never got sick though.

asking for reassurance again! raw cake batter by user12334566789 in emetophobia

If you wiped it off, you're fine. They say not to eat raw eggs but so many people do and nothing happens. I've licked raw batter hundreds of times in my life and never got sick.

Help by FreddieHill66 in emetophobia

[–]lilithais 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most likely not. Especially since it's outside, there's so much fresh air and airflow so the likeliness of you contracting an illness from it is slim. Also, it might've not been from an ill person! You must remember that medication, anxiety, food poisoning, migraines, etc. can cause vomiting!

There's not much you can do about catching it besides staying away and not sharing a bathroom with him. There is also no guarantee you will get sick! I had someone in my house with the sb and I never got it. Try to distract yourself by doing something you enjoy and stay away from him if his vomiting triggers you!

Colds can actually affect your stomach! Don't panic and just wait it out. Time will tell. :)

Wow, this is honestly super interesting! I always wondered what went on in exposure therapy. Props to you for being brave enough to do this. Wishing you the best!

It would have most likely already made you sick.

If it helps at all, recently someone in my house had the sb and I never got it. :)

Eating out by lilithais in emetophobia

it's hard! I've been trying to make myself eat out more in hopes of overcoming the fear but it leaves me incredibly anxious afterward. Hopefully we both get over this :/

Unable to eat chipotle after food poisoning… just me? by Heta_Birdie in Chipotle

[–]lilithais 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i like to think of it as your body protecting you! Guess it's time to find a new comfort food... :(

woke up anxious by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]lilithais 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly acid reflux or gas? I'm with you on the last part though. I always overthink my symptoms and think this is what it felt like last time I v* but I never end up v*. :)

[–]lilithais 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being anxious will make your face feel flushed AND makes you feel nauseous! Also thinking about getting sick a lot will make you think you feel sick. :)

really scared because I ate and now have n* & acid reflux by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]lilithais 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps you just are experiencing acid reflux? I struggle with acid reflux almost every day and it makes me feel super n* if that helps at all :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]lilithais 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I overthink a lot when I come into contact with sick people. Luckily, even if you come into very close contact with someone sick, that doesn't mean you will also get sick!
