for anyone who is freaking out right now so am i. I read through all these comments just like you are and for some reason i still find myself freaking out when people say its okay and to breathe. So heres what i have to say to you, what makes me calm down a bit is literally just typing things on my phone like im doing right now. I also like to play videos and have my airpods in my ears and just have noise or someone talking about what the hell ever in my ears because it makes me feel like im not sleeping alone . I find it the worst when i go to bed if thats also what you're going through try watching some videos but earpuds in and just wait till you pass out. Its currently 6am where i am rn and i cannot sleep bcuz i am super nauseous but you're not alone. Find things that tend to calm you but always make sure you're drinking water and breathe it may not work instantly but if you keep doing it soon enough you will start to calm down i promise💖 you're not going to throw up i promise its all in your head. All of this is all your mind messing with you , believe it or not you're not even nauseous right now it's literally our minds making us feel that way. Tell yourself you're not sick because truly you're not. we cant let our anxiety and minds take over our bodies like this any longer! You're in control tell yourself you're okay. Im trying to get over this phobia and i think it is time you do too! We can do this , you're probably wondering how? Well its not easy of course. Im starting to just tell myself its okay you feel nauseous right now and i tell myself you're not going to throw up and if i do then i do. Little do i know im still going to freak out but first step is trying to tell yourself its okay to throw up so that you're telling your mind and anxiety you arent scared when they both are making you scared. second thing im working on is actually getting up and going to the bathroom or trash can when im feeling really nauseous because usually when im going to throw up i wont allow myself to . i will do everything in my power to not let myself get sick so i wouldnt even attempt to stand up or anything because if i get up and go to bathroom thats telling myself okay you're going to get sick but if i stay where im at and not by a toilet or such then its making me think im not gonna get sick so thats my second step is to actually let myself know its okay to physically get up and go to the bathroom if needed. and third just letting it happen and as easy as it sounds its truly not going to be and thats just the honest truth sadly. Im 18 years old and have always for as long as i can remember have had this phobia. Just a couple months ago i got sick and threw up about 3 times because i have acid reflux which is just the worst thing to have when you have a phobia but i was calling my mom and crying and she had to leave work early to come home and help me because i felt nauseous and it shouldnt have to be that way. Im an adult and i still make my mom sit with me while i dont feel good or have her guide me through if i get sick and tell me its okay. Just know you're not silly or a "child" because you want the comfort of that special someone to be there for you its okay. Everyone is soo different. This was super long but i hope you reading all this kinda took your mind away a little bit because i know typing all this helped me a good bit just now. You're not alone. Lets kick this phobias ass together! If you would like my snapchat or number so we can text and maybe try to help eachother out ill be glad to give you it! but you got this and so do i! lets do this :)
ik its been 3 years but im seeing ur comment now currently very nauseous i have already gotten close to vomiting several times tonight and i just wont let it happen im too scared but i wish i could just get it over with. Your comment really helped a little bit but i still find it so hard to just finally vomit. I haven't vomited in like 5-6 years so the anticipation really sucks. Im mainly scared of the feeling before you vomit. Gosh i just wanna get it over with.
can i just say that this is exactly how ive felt with my emetophobia my whole life. so you making this video means so much to me to listen to. thank you so so much for this
I have been suffering for over 4 years and I felt like i understand EVERYTHING about my illness, this video ring so many bells for me right now.. Iam so happy RUclips recommended this for me, i needed it. Thank you.
I feel relieved after watching this video. My emetophobia started when I was 5, so I have no idea what the cause or trigger is. I was too young and my memory was not clear before 5 years old. I have this kind of fear over 25 years now and it’s getting worse every year. I've been doing many research about emetophobia and most of them states that, "It is easy to cure your phobia by fixing the trauma you have or the cause of your fear" in which I don' t know what they are as mentioned in the beginning. I feel hopeless because their theory sounds reasonable and I can't cure myself. Your video have saved me. I have a hope again. Thank you very much. I can't wait to see your next video.
I think hearing about other peoples experience might help. I'm at like a 7 out of 10 on this emetephobia. Bordering on losing control of my life. hope to see more videos!
When I was little, I was fascinated with watching videos of people being sick. It’s super weird and I don’t know why I did it. At first, I suddenly realized that I didn’t like being sick or watching people be sick. Now I have panic attacks even when someone mentions being sick
Hey, I'm from Brazil and I have been suffering with this phobia since 5 yo. Man, I can relate to everything you said! I was talking to my therapist and I told her that one of the reasons for my phobia is my fear of losing control. It may have other causes, but it's been a while I had realized that this one of the main causes to my problem. Lately I have being able to deal with it more peacefully, but it's not always easy. Thank you for this video! Take care
For me, it’s more about other people around me being sick (specifically at night for some reason). I can handle myself for the most part but i have the hugest anxiety of other people torturing me with THEIR sickness 😩 it’s a very helpless feeling and very exhausting... I have tried to overcome this by going out and facing my fear of control (like you suggested) but i have experienced people being sick around me so many times that it makes my fear more real and validates my assumptions that people are going to be sick around me! :(
It's completely debilitating. I have two step kids. I basically stay in constant fear all winter long because of the "kid bug". This is the first time I have openly spoke about my fear other than my wife. I also have hard times at night. I will wake up at 12 a.m. and feel a tiny bit of discomfort in my gut and instantly think the worst. It's so hard to overcome sometimes. I don't like it coming to this but I will take a Valium if I think things are going to happen. I usually get better in an hour or so, but not without the help of very heavy breathing. I get really bad shakes too. Sorry about the long reply. I'm just venting. I'm so sorry you have to feel like I do. I really truly am.
WTF. You really, really reaaaaaallly get it. I don't even have the words. I fee like my head is spinning. I would love to have coffee with you and talk to you for hours.haha. You are a really intelligent voice for emetophobics. I've read a lot and watched a lot of people on youtube and I never felt much comfort from any of that. I still felt like something was missing. I hope you keep doing this work- keep talking. Keep enlightening.
This helped so much! Especially with all this corona virus stuff it’s made my phobia so much worse, I just found out it was even a real thing I thought I was losing my mind. thank you✨
this is so necessary, especially that part about being sick because to someone without emetophobia they describe it as gross eww but to me that sounds like eww that’s terrible never want to experience that when in reality its eww welp lets move on, please keep making more content x
@Tash Crawley-boevey THIS!! My emetophobia only got worse after reading experiences from other people, because everyone was like "i hate it. It's the worst feeling" and i took that so literally. But then i realized, it's so easy to exaggerate when you're not afraid of something. For example, when i have a headache i could say "this is such a terrible headache, it hurts so much and it feels so intense and bad". In reality it probably wasn't so bad at all, and even though it was not nice, it was also not a big deal. But because i'm not afraid of it, i have no trouble using big words like that. If i knew someone was afraid of headaches, i'd explain it like "oh, it hurted but there are so many more things that feel worse! It only lasted like a few hours and i just made myself cozy in bed, the pain wasn't so bad at all"
what i think caused mine was after getting sick i had that sore diaphragm sensation and for a week after every time i had to burp i felt like i was going to get sick again. I hadn't gotten sick for 7 years so i must have forgotten all the sensations and feelings. Plus being in high school and not wanting to have people judge me for getting sick. i always had to look for the nearest exit and or closest trash can. Then after months of thinking about it, it became memory burned on my brain. Then i went 16 years without doing and i was feeling really good and finally overcoming the fear. Then i got sick again but this time i was good and didnt dwell on it. I happened again last month and i felt that fear coming on again. But this time i was able to identify what and why i was feeling the fear. It was the sore diaphragm and burping. I got past the first week and have been ok since.
I’ve researched abt it for a long time trying to find a solution and it’s the first time i’ve seen this kind of explanation and it makes a whole lot of sense. Like when I face loss in my life my emetophobia skyrockets due to the uncertainty it causes me and well im realizing it right now. You translated it so well, like people with other phobias they avoid the situation and it’s okay, we cant avoid it bc it’s related to our body and it drives me crazy!! There’s nowhere to run even for a second. If you could please talk more about it, it’s so helpful im crying
Hello, my name is Jamie and I'm a 14 year old male, I have suffered with emetophobia for a large chunk of my life and I have finally decided to try and find a solution to overcoming emetophobia. This video actually really hits home with me. I can relate a lot with your story. When I was really young like 4-5 around then I remember having an episode of sickness which felt horrible, I can remember this episode very clearly down to who was with me and what I was wearing at the time, my emetophobia didn't really kick in until I was about 9 or 10 and over the years it has got worse and worse to the point where I will be trying to keep my hygiene up by washing my hands constantly and I will wash them that much my hands begin to go super dry and begin to blister because of the hand soap and water. However, when I was younger before my emetophobia kicked in I used to be completely fine with people throwing up, I would even sometimes stay with them and make sure they're okay and keep them company but now. If I know someone has even been sick once no matter the cause I will do anything and I mean anything to stay away from them for at least 3-4 days and this has really effected my social life and my mental health to a point where it is near unbearable at times. And as you said in the video about people who have emetophobia tend to ponder and consider life in general, I do this all the time and I don't think it helps. And where some people have a desire for control, I also have this slightly but I more or less have a desire to know what is going on around me, for example if someone is throwing up I want to know what caused it whether its food or a illness or whatever. But besides that, this video has really helped me realise what I need to get in check and what I need to do to improve my feelings towards my phobia. Much appreciated ~ Jamie
Thankyou so much I had no idea how to cope with this and I literally found about what it was today. Your videos really helped me like a lot and I’m very thankful for it
I always thought that I have this phobia because when I was 7 I had apendicitis and I threw up so many times from there I just got scared and now whenever I feel slightly nauseous I get in full panic mode and shake uncontrollably
Now, I don’t mind getting sick. When i was younger my dad told me one of his fav singers died due to drowning in his own vomit which is were the vomit goes into your lungs but you have to be half conscious for that to happen very rare but my brain won’t believe me which is the problem.
When I was 7 my dad passed from cancer and my mom suffers from diabetes which I remember got sick . My dad I saw in the hospital not looking himself and I think that really scarred me
I also know I suffered from acid reflux and would get sick often as a kid from eating things that would harm my chest/stomach I wouldn’t eat the food for years if I got sick from it or if I saw someone get sick I couldn’t eat
Hey, really appreciate your thoughts on that topic and I agree with most of what you said. But there is something I don’t really understand from your explanation of the “cause” of the phobia. If a person wants to be in control, has a concrete plan for its live and does not want to take directions form others, doesn’t that mean that person is confident in its resources to deal with difficulties? I am someone who hates responsibilities, I am not confident at all, underestimate my capabilities and overestimate those of others. It always made sense for me, that I have this phobia because of my perception of me being not able to deal with things.
I remember when I was 9 or 10 I got really sick and ran down the hallway vomiting everywhere! I was literally out of control because I was getting vomit all over the house. I could not stop vomiting, I was so scared I felt like dying. After that I developed an eating disorder until I was about 12. My emetophobia disappeared in middle school and all the way through my early college years. Now I’m 23 and it has come back 😔
honestly ive been going thru this for about a year i think due to stress its gotten waytty better but still very bad and im just now looking into this im not even sure if i have this or not but in my opinion as well as my family i do. i want to get over this but dont know how im so scared everyday and it has affected my diet .. i try to think positive and not think of it but its so bad as well as i get sooooo scared and i have panick attacks and im just clueless in what to do . i honestly thought i was just crazy and i was the only one who suffers from this i need to get rid of this and w ur help i will!
when i was 5 my dad would always drink and he would be really intoxicated one night he got sick all over the bed and the floor and i think that’s when my phobia started than also my cousin had tonsil problems which would make her get sick daily . ever since when i’m sick i always overthink it and i freak out i cry, start to shake, its my biggest fear
Hello my name is Amy Blackburn I am 26 years old and I would love to know how to cope with emetaphobia because I have had it all my life although up until 2 years ago it never bothered me to much yes I’d stay away from people who got ill and if I ever felt ill I’d panic but it just didn’t affect me that much as I’d eat loads chocolate fatty foods you name it I ate it lol but then 2 years ago I got very stressed out because of certain things going on in My life and then I gradually got worse like i went from eating to only eating certain things like pastry off sausage rolls and cheese and onion mini cheddars and then it’s like my body became immune to them as even they started to make me feel ill so I stopped eating completely and not many people believe me when I say I don’t eat any thing but I don’t I went through stages of living off coffee and loads of sugar and then I went to drinking hot milk and sugar and then I started to drink cold milk and for about a year it wasn’t to bad I had my bad ish days but 3 days ago I had a massive panic attack and really thought I was gunna be sick after taking a sip of milk and it’s knocked me back to square one and I have been living off a sip of water here and there and I mean tiny sips of water and it’s not enough I’m really dehydrated my lips are sore my whole body hurts so if you could help me with ways to cope with panic so I can try to sort my life out I would really appreciate it....thank you for reading

I know it’s been years but thank you so much for making this video.
Hey dee hope you felling better
This makes a lot of sense but one part I deviate from is the fear of death my phobia hasn't gotten so bad I'd rather die than be ill
I feel relieved after watching this video.
My emetophobia started when I was 5, so I have no idea what the cause or trigger is.
I was too young and my memory was not clear before 5 years old.
I have this kind of fear over 25 years now and it’s getting worse every year.

I feel hopeless because their theory sounds reasonable and I can't cure myself.
Your video have saved me.
I have a hope again.
Thank you very much.
I can't wait to see your next video.
Erika K. I can tell this came from your heart
Mine started in 2018 I’m only 10
for the first time, someone who gets it.
I think hearing about other peoples experience might help. I'm at like a 7 out of 10 on this emetephobia. Bordering on losing control of my life. hope to see more videos!

I don't know if I have it. If someone pukes I faint. If someone says they feel sick I panic.
Daisy Rose sounds like you do 🤷🏻♀️
This video helped me so much. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video. It really makes a lot of sense to me 🤗
Thank you so much for this video!
I always thought that I have this phobia because when I was 7 I had apendicitis and I threw up so many times from there I just got scared and now whenever I feel slightly nauseous I get in full panic mode and shake uncontrollably
Now, I don’t mind getting sick. When i was younger my dad told me one of his fav singers died due to drowning in his own vomit which is were the vomit goes into your lungs but you have to be half conscious for that to happen very rare but my brain won’t believe me which is the problem.
He just read me like a book.
When I was 7 my dad passed from cancer and my mom suffers from diabetes which I remember got sick . My dad I saw in the hospital not looking himself and I think that really scarred me
I also know I suffered from acid reflux and would get sick often as a kid from eating things that would harm my chest/stomach I wouldn’t eat the food for years if I got sick from it or if I saw someone get sick I couldn’t eat
I think i might be embarrassed by vomitting?
Hey, really appreciate your thoughts on that topic and I agree with most of what you said. But there is something I don’t really understand from your explanation of the “cause” of the phobia. If a person wants to be in control, has a concrete plan for its live and does not want to take directions form others, doesn’t that mean that person is confident in its resources to deal with difficulties? I am someone who hates responsibilities, I am not confident at all, underestimate my capabilities and overestimate those of others. It always made sense for me, that I have this phobia because of my perception of me being not able to deal with things.

Love your videos! I'd love more of them. Informative and helpful. Thank you.
honestly ive been going thru this for about a year i think due to stress its gotten waytty better but still very bad and im just now looking into this im not even sure if i have this or not but in my opinion as well as my family i do. i want to get over this but dont know how im so scared everyday and it has affected my diet .. i try to think positive and not think of it but its so bad as well as i get sooooo scared and i have panick attacks and im just clueless in what to do . i honestly thought i was just crazy and i was the only one who suffers from this i need to get rid of this and w ur help i will!
The greatest cure, for me, was to go to army basic training
when i was 5 my dad would always drink and he would be really intoxicated one night he got sick all over the bed and the floor and i think that’s when my phobia started than also my cousin had tonsil problems which would make her get sick daily . ever since when i’m sick i always overthink it and i freak out i cry, start to shake, its my biggest fear

How do you know that a lot of emetophobes have desire for control?
Thanks dude
I disagree with you about the actual act- I don’t think it was a 2 or 3- I thought it was horrible and I’m still afraid of it.
Hello my name is Amy Blackburn I am 26 years old and I would love to know how to cope with emetaphobia because I have had it all my life although up until 2 years ago it never bothered me to much yes I’d stay away from people who got ill and if I ever felt ill I’d panic but it just didn’t affect me that much as I’d eat loads chocolate fatty foods you name it I ate it lol but then 2 years ago I got very stressed out because of certain things going on in My life and then I gradually got worse like i went from eating to only eating certain things like pastry off sausage rolls and cheese and onion mini cheddars and then it’s like my body became immune to them as even they started to make me feel ill so I stopped eating completely and not many people believe me when I say I don’t eat any thing but I don’t I went through stages of living off coffee and loads of sugar and then I went to drinking hot milk and sugar and then I started to drink cold milk and for about a year it wasn’t to bad I had my bad ish days but 3 days ago I had a massive panic attack and really thought I was gunna be sick after taking a sip of milk and it’s knocked me back to square one and I have been living off a sip of water here and there and I mean tiny sips of water and it’s not enough I’m really dehydrated my lips are sore my whole body hurts so if you could help me with ways to cope with panic so I can try to sort my life out I would really appreciate it....thank you for reading
Hope itts been better for you amy
