Emetophobia---fear of Others Vomiting Posted: 12-23-05 10:33am
I am so releived to know that there are
others who suffer with this obsession and
phobia. I need to know how to rid myself
of it.
I am obsessed with concern that someone
near me is going to throw up. If I am on
an airplane, I watch the person next to me
the whole flight in fear of him grabbing
the sick bag.
If at a bar, I obsessively watch for
really intoxicated bar patrons and make
sure I stay far away becasue I am in fear
they will vomit near me.
If I know someone has ben sick, I will not
even get near them for weeks...Just
beacuse I know they have vomited.
The worst part is, particularly when
flying is I cannot get thoughts out of my
head about the smell and the sounds. I
literally have to tell myself to think of
something else. Am I crazy or can someone
help me?

Hello,
I have the same problem that you have. I
tend to be most fearful in public
restrooms. My heart starts racing and my
cheeks turn bright red. How do you handle
your fear ? It's nice to "meet" somebody
else who faces the same problem.
