I know there may be other threads on this, but i thought to start this. I know you would think this is silly but my fear of vomiting is having a hugely negative affect on life.
It has got so bad that I AM SCARED TO EAT. I am so scared of vomiting that the thought of food in my stomache churning away can often be so bad that i will not tough food for hours and hours on end. I have not found one correct answer to solve this issue. It is ruining my whole life. I have researched this all so much but no right answer has turned up.

Hi there,
I have suffered from the fear of vomit for almost my entire life so have a good idea of how you're feeling. And as I am only 16 it's not a great phobia to have! It has never really stopped me from eating though apart from carrotts!
My advice to you would be to get advice from your GP and ask to talk to someone who is trained in that area. I have only just been able to get my Mum to take me to the doctors about it but now I have just had my first session at a mental health clinic and already feel better about the situation.
Good luck and if you ever need to talk just ask :wink:
