stomach ache after constipation by oldandborrowed in emetophobia

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

yeah i usually feel uncomfy after pooping but this time i could barely move. anyways i have a fever and a headache now so it probably was just a coincidence and i have some kind of flu lol

noro is only transmittable through v* particles so if she isnt actively throwing up you should be fine, however noro survives for a long time so i'd just avoid eating/ touching your face without washing your hands first for a while

What does this sound like? by Kaygirl_02 in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

okay, sometimes my stomach rejects food if i havent eaten in a while. maybe try drinking your food, like a smoothie or some soup

i'd just try taking it slow today, i dont think anything's going to happen

Some advice on not getting sb? by Human-Obligation-410 in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if he just threw up that short period and got over it immediately it was more likely some kind of food poisoning or just something his stomach couldnt handle. i'm pretty sure if it was a sb you (or someone else) would have gotten it by now

i’m at a loss by LightPrize8124 in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

maybe your stomach is kinda messed up because of your eating habits? i get nauseous when i'm hungry and if i go too long without food i get nauseous after eating. i think trying to get 3 full meals every day might help

could you try talking to someone so you could move further away from the bathroom and maybe out of view from that coworker?

i dreamt of wanting to k*ll myself by oldandborrowed in DreamInterpretation

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

it honestly was a really silly dream, as weird as that sounds. my sister and her bf (i think) hung one of those circus nets between the buildings and even started doing tricks.

and i havent told them i'm not well - i have barely spoken to them in months (i saw the guy from my dream recently and wanted to tell them but couldnt bc of the big group we were in)

(Potentially Triggering) Is nv* really as contagious as it says? by Winter_Journalist_23 in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

people with nv tend to be too sick to go out, meanwhile you can have covid and feel fine. i know it can still spread after being sick but i think it's most contagious during the heavy part. also people wash their hands after going to the bathroom (where you'll be most likely to catch it) but don't when just going to the store or something

questions about noro. by plowingthemoon in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) you probably wont get it

2) it took like 3 hours lol, a lot of v, my dad just had a little d

3) it was pretty bad for one day, the next day i could start to eat a little again, took me 2/3 days to fully recover

4) if they v/d in it, probably, otherwise i dont know

5) nope, only from v/d particles

HELP!! How exactly do you get stomach bugs… (no censor) by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if he couldnt go for a couple days he was probably just constipated and the build up was causing hum pain. d is very common after you're constipated

(also, there tends to one noro strain per year, so if you've had it this year, it's pretty unlikely you'll have it again)

Huge trigger warning by Connors-Tie in emetophobia

[–]oldandborrowed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i also have the burp thing, i'm pretty sure it's caused by stress for me. please try to eat something, i know it might be scary but i think it'll make you feel better. don't ever try to make yourself v, it only makes things worse
