Hello all, Lately i've been kind of up and
down, I've been to my therapist 2 times
now! It really helps and
it feels like shes someone easy to talk
to, Much like my mom. Except the other
day, I was just so sick of feeling rotten
i just tweaked out and started screaming
and having a tantrum, I was so frustrated
with my situation i think i just held the
pressure in too long. But other than that
i've been going to school, Not that i'm
caught up yet, But going is a big step!
I've had a few friends over which is also
another big step in anxiety, Being social
again. I just hope this all passes and in
the future when i become successful i can
look back and see how strong i was! I've
kind of come to relize i'm not going to
vomit! But i'm still being pretty
skeptical, Because i know that you do not
vomit for no reason, You have to be sick
with Stomach flu or Have eaten bad food!
(Correct me if i'm wrong about that those
are the only ways possible for you to
vomit
)
Thanks for reading!
~Alex

I just found this article on the reasons
you would vomit, It calmed my mind a bit
and made my stomach feel a bit better
knowing i don't have these issues, Here is
the article:
Reasons For Vomiting
wrote:
Poison in the stomach
Poison or toxic material may get into the
stomach from spoiled food, drinking poison
or acid, drinking too much alcohol,
allergic reaction, or through an illness.
Spoiled food
Spoiled food may have bacteria that
produce harmful toxins. Usually throwing
up will rid the body of such toxins. In
some cases, toxins from the e coli
bacteria get into the system so quickly
that the vomiting reaction isn't
sufficient to protect against death.
Drinking poison
Certainly drinking some poisonous material
can cause serious damage or death. In some
cases vomiting helps to rid the body of
the poison. In the case of drinking an
acid or some caustic liquid, it is better
to provide a buffer the neutralize the
material than to have the person vomit,
which might cause even more damage.
Alcohol
When so much alcohol is consumed that the
body cannot process it, the person may
start to vomit. Otherwise the person may
pass out and could even die from alcohol
poisoning.
Allergic reaction
A person who is allergic to certain types
of food may throw up, as a result of
ingesting that food. One example is if a
person is lactic intolerant and drinks
some milk or eats some ice cream. That
person may then vomit to rid the body of
the undesirable material.
Disease
A person may become ill or contract a
disease in various ways. Some diseases
result in toxins within the stomach. In
such a case, the person may throw up to
help rid the body of those toxins.

Please do yourself a favor and see a
doctor and find out the from a
proffesional what is really wrong. I feel
untill you really know and someone is able
to give you a diffenative answer, you are
going to be a wits end. It will be one of
the best things you've ever done for
yourself. You are torturing yourself
looking on line and trying to figure out
what is wrong. Those are only guidelines
Alex. Go see someone who has a degree and
put you mind at ease for once and for all
instead of playing these guessing games.

I agree.
It sounds like you're doing well with the
anxiety though. You like your therapist?
It's important to have a good relationship
with her.

making some headway Alex. Not gonna happen
over night, but I can already tell you
spirits are up. And that makes me happy.

But but but..... I still have stomach
aches, i'm seriously like OBSESSED about
vomiting, Cause it hate it. I constantly
think about it for some reason? And also
now i'm going to an alternative school for
10 weeks because i've missed so much
regular school, Now i have to go there to
get caught up so i have good grades so i
don't have to go to summer school and be
in 8th grade again. And MsSky can you just
clarify something, Is it really true that
humans arn't supposed to vomit? And that
you don't just vomit for no reason,
Because i just got on this new acid
reducer called Pepcid AC, And i was
telling my mom "It's not doing anything"
and she replied that if it didn't hlep
then its in my head?

That is right Alex. You just don't vomit
for no reason at all. Normally, it is from
somthing you eat, nerves, flu or stomach
disorder of some kind. Alex, this is just
my opinion, but I think you are talking
yourself into wanting to vomit. Now, if
there is any pain or abdominal discomfort
along with this feeling, you need to see a
doctor as soon as possible. Meaning that
there could be a real cause due to a
stomach problem. Even acid reflux should
not make you feel like you want to vomit
all the time. I have had it for years and
there is no neusea associated with it as
far as I am know.
It really helps and
it feels like shes someone easy to talk
to, Much like my mom. Except the other
day, I was just so sick of feeling rotten
i just tweaked out and started screaming
and having a tantrum, I was so frustrated
with my situation i think i just held the
