Sounds pathetic but please help

[miniegg1980]

I'm not on my antidepressants at mo as breastfeeding my 10 week old. They are for a number of things, one in particular is my phobia of sick.

My two year old has just been sick twice and i am now petrified i'm going to be. I know this sounds really pathetic and silly, but am only just holding it together. Am trying to feed ds2 and am physically shaking. I'm gagging, sweating and just want to cry.

Want to get in my car and drive as far away as possible.

Someone please tell me how stupid i'm being

Well done for having 2 dc's with a sick phobia, I dont think I would have.
Your being stupid....if u drive off.
Take a deep breath, get some big gloves, suck on a mint so u don't gag and clean it up, once u get it done you'll be fine.

Have cleaned and changed bed and picked up sick. It's now i panic. Its so stupid. I just want to be there for him and i can!t even kiss him goodnight now

Thank you for replying :)

I retch at poo but not sick, with the exception of baby poo. Makes me feel like a wimp, but I'm not phobic. So sorry you are finding it difficult.

Do you know any breathing techniques to calm yourself - eg slowly in through mouth and out through the nose?

NLP fast phobia cure does work - you need a trained practitioner to guide you through it though.

Am trying the breathing....

Notvheard of nlp fast phobia?

Am meant to be catching up in sleep, but am now wide awake.....waiting....

Did the breathing work?

Fast phobia cure works by dissociation, you detach from yourself (twice) ie watch yourself watching yourself have the phobia on TV, run the phobia and tell yourself anything you need to know from watching yourself, some versions run phobia backwards very fast, then you reintegrate into yourself.

The person guiding you keeps you safe, makes sure you are correctly dissociated, and that you properly associate again. The process Does Not involve you 'confronting your phobia' - it is quite gentle.

Not a real TV, one in your head!

Thanks for the explanation, sounds an interesting idea. I did have CPD but its got worse again since catching a bug from lovely son last year :(
