Emetophobia
Does anyone also suffer from emetophobia? Am I alone in this? It feels like I am and like no one truly understands me.

That’s normal :) I just read a little on it earlier, that it can come with Ocd or it’s just something people get I don’t remember

Yes I have emetophobia as well you are not alone! In fact whenever I feel the slightest bit of nausea or feel like I’m gonna vomit I get a intrusive image of when I was a kid and threw up all over the floor and I feel a rush of anxiety, I’ve gone out of my way to make sure I haven’t thrown up in years because it scares me to my core. I’m sorry your going through this I wish you the best 🫶

I have emetophobia and you are NOT alone! 💕 I have felt alone with this my entire life so I understand the isolation. People around me in my circle look at me like I'm ridiculous when I have panic attacks about being sick or when I engage in avoidant behavior. People think that it should be one of those things I just "turn off" and "just relax" or "it's not a big deal". I send myself into panic attacks over feelings of nausea to the extent that I scare people because they just don't know what to do. I've been dealing with this for 20 years, since I was 8 years old. I see you! 🙌🏼

anyone else?
does anyone else experience extreme fear of developing psychosis or schizophrenia or derealization. I literally freak myself out so much that it makes me physically sick. I’m so scared of developing these and it keeps coming up all over my TikTok and Google. It’s freaking me out.

Can someone please help me?
I think when people are saying OCD is egodystonic is really triggering me and I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else? I’m going through a really bad relapse and right now I’m trying to figure out if my thoughts are truly egodystonic, like I how do I know I won’t act on them, how can I trust my emotions and everything. I feel really confused and I feel like I don’t know who I am anymore or how I carry on with life because it’s so long and I’m so unsure of everything that’s going on in my head. Like how do I know that this is OCD and true desires/urges. I’m so confused.
