    I have a HUGE fear of throwing up. And if I think about it for to long I start freaking out getting all sweaty I hate it. I wish I could be cured of this insane fear of throwing up. UGH

      Emetophobia. Same here. It's not as severe as it used to be but it's still there. Mine developed when I was little, and my brother would get car sick. He was sitting next to me, and of course I couldn't get away or distance myself in a moving car.

    My phobia of bugs is so bad that I cry almost every time I see a bug INSIDE. Outside it's a little better since I know that's their actual home, but I freak out anytime a big is on me, my clothes, my room, anything. I feel like a lot of girls will be like oh I'm afraid of bugs!! And it's all cute but when it's me I scream and cry and freak out😂

      i feel for you Devyn Rayne, first of all your name is devine. so unique. as a kid i had ocd for sure checking the locks on every door 3 or four times the worst thing i had was arachnophobia , spiders freaked me out
      i used to imagine them in my bed sheets
      i think spider man sorted out the first
      i see spiders now as cool arachnids, i even fear to tread on one as the are so cool to me ,
      the door locks i stopped checking ,naturally it went away although i work in security now , and i have people and cameras checking entraces and exits ,it ended up an advantage

  • @Lysana7
    @Lysana7 6 лет назад +152

    I think you can only get rid of your fear, if you continuously challenge and confront it.... trust me... I have a phobia of spiders, bugs, insects, etc... basically everything small moving fast and unespectedly... and one day my parents decided to stop killing them for me, so i had to do it by myself and another time I had to vacuum up all the dead and alive spiders in our cellar with a very low ceiling and I basically cried the entire time, but I made it through and now I´m still afraid of spiders, etc. , but it has just gotten so much better...so there´s hope people :) challenge yourselves and/or go to a professional for help :)

    • @thegoanentertainmentchannel
      @thegoanentertainmentchannel 6 лет назад +13

      You cannot challenge and confront fear. Plz make known that you have not made yourself......... It is the subconscious mind which needs to be controlled and maintained which is possible only by hynotherapist.

    • @Lysana7
      @Lysana7 6 лет назад +10

      sorry, but I have to disagree...in my opinion, the reason for fear often lies in the subconscious, yes. and yes, hypnotherapy may work and help you, but I think you could find this reason out with a normal therapist as well, and many therapists confront fears over and over again (many of which actually were brought to surface by traumas or other terrifiying life events), and they can get over it.... but it´s okay if you have a different opinion, this is just mine :)

If there is a bug outside on the window, I won’t go near that space in my home until somebody comes and smacks the window so the bug falls off. This goes for all insects spider centipedes and cockroaches. I shivered and it made me very nervous when I wrote those words. It’s pure hell.. I wish I could be cured

So if you really do vomit you won’t get dry heaves and it will be so cold coming up you won’t feel like your choking or burning . Since I put this into practice throwing up doesn’t seem as bad or scarey .

    I have a fear of repetitive motions and sounds. It’s even worse when those motions or sounds are continuous. I can’t even look at a ceiling fan or hear it without getting scared or freaking out. I use my headphones basically every hour of the day. Sometimes there’s nothing on the white wall but somehow my mind makes me think that there’s a TV static there and static is repetitive so it freaked me out a lot. Even when I close my eyes I see these shapes which is supposed to be normal but I get so scared. Basically, even though the repetitive motions aren’t there, I see it there for no reason at all.

    I have Gerascophobia, and I’m terrified of going to 11th grade. I hate the word “teenager,” and I always “correct” people whenever they say it by saying ‘child’ or ‘kid’ overtop of them. Anyone else with this problem? Also, does anyone else have emetophobia?

I'm scared I'll lose control I overthink every little mess up I make thinking i could have got in a accident and then it makes me not want to drive ever again. I've tried enough times to scare me completely my anxiety has taken control of me from ever driving it's been a year since I have driven a car and it's so sad I can't get rid of this fear for the sake of my daughter having a mother who can't take her places. :(

Before you ask, NO that did not help me get over my phobia. In fact, it made it a whole lot worse.

      You should talk to a therapist. Where did you grow up? Because it's odd that you're scared of tall buildings and natural trees. I truly mean no offense, but were you raised in an area with not many trees or buildings? Maybe that is the reason. I would take a walk everyday by something a little big, then take a walk by something bigger everyday. When you see that nothing happens, the tall thing will never fall on you, you should feel more comfortable.
