If you found my site and don’t know what Emetophobia is, here is a succinct definition from Wikipedia:

Emetophobia is an intense, irrational fear or anxiety pertaining to vomiting. This specific phobia can also include subcategories of what causes the anxiety, including a fear of vomiting in public, a fear of seeing vomit, a fear of watching the action of vomiting or fear of being nauseated.

Emetophobia is clinically considered an “elusive predicament” because limited research has been done pertaining to it. The fear of vomiting receives little attention compared with other irrational fears. Emetophobia is not limited by age or maturity level. There are cases of emetophobia present in childhood and adolescence, as well as adulthood.

My personal definition:

Emetophobia is a life-sucking, super-irrational and debilitating fear just as real as being chased by a bear or falling off a building. Imagine having a fear such as those and not being able to run away from them at all.

In short…. it sucks!

But it can be beat!
