Im scared to drink liquids, whats going on here?!


Question: Ok several months ago I drank some nasty drink that tasted like licorice fast and I almost threw up. Ever since then ive been scared to drink normally or fast because if I do, I get that same feeling. Sometimes it happens if I drink slowly.
Is there anyway I can get rid of this?


Answers: I suggest getting medically evaluated first to rule out something physiological.
After that, I would consider that it might be psychological. If you get used to swallowing without it happening, it will probably break you of the feeling. Look into what's called "systematic desensitization" - it's used for fears primarily, but I think may help in your case.
