I am emetophobic and have been for as long as I can remember. The fear is mainly around others being sick. If somebody says they feel sick, they are sick in front of me, I see it or hear it, I will have a panic attack. I’ve never really known how I’d react if I were to be sick or if my reaction would be as extreme as it is when it’s others. This is because I can’t remember the last time I threw up (apart from the time I’m going to tell you about) I take a lot of steps to prevent it from happening. Around 3 weeks ago I caught a stomach bug. It only lasted 24 hours but in that time I was sick a lot. Ever since, I don’t really want to eat, I am on edge all day and I struggle to get to sleep at night because I am so terrified of being sick again. I feel like a nervous wreck. Would this warrant a trip to the gp?
