I suffer from emetophobia and it has a huge impact on my life. It's so bad that I can't even say the words associated with it. If I see someone being sick on TV I start to feel very unwell and I have to leave the room.
I get into a state of absolute panic if I hear that someone I know has a stomach bug. I will stop eating altogether so that I have nothing in my system and won't have anything to vomit up. Even typing this is causing me to become anxious about it.
Does anyone else suffer from this phobia?
