I also have Emetophobia!.
Try to manage your anxiety before it can build up!. Take deep, slow breaths!. Tell yourself, you're going to be OK!. Tell yourself, you have been through this before, and you were OK!. Now you are going to be fine once again!.
I am happy to say I haven't thrown up since, I think 1983!. If it did happen, it was when I was coming out of anesthesia!. I am not sure if there was blood coming out of my mouth or the big "V" word!. I felt nauseous after the surgery!.
When I go to a restaurant I order something I know is safe to eat!.
Once you trust the restaurant, you can relax and not worry about the food being bad!. I try to make sure the food I buy at the grocery store is fresh!. "When in doubt, throw it out!." I hope you have a "V"- free life!. Best Wishes!.

My sister has that everytime i say i feel like im gonna throw up she freaks out!. The only way to conquer a fear is to do what it says not to do!. unfortuately i have a fear of getting sick so i just have to accept that and not worry about it!. My sister has thrown up before and she is fine she only has a problem when other people do!. I make her sit there when i am throwiing up that is the way that she is getting better!. You need to expose yourself as gross as it seems!. Whats the worst thing thats gonna happen you get scared!? GOODLUCKWww@Answer-Health@Com
