Vomitting when thinking of particular things- can that happen?!


Question: Vomitting when thinking of particular things- can that happen!?
So recently I've broken up with someone, and now everytime I see a picture of them on facebook or a strong reminder of them I feel really queasy!. It had gotten so bad at one particular time, that I started to gag!.

It not only happens when I think of him, but other memories I have that a glued to my brain such as a time when I was stuck in an elevator for an hour, my friend who has passed away, and shattering glass infront of me!.

:/

I know it's certainly not normal, but is it possible to think of a particular thing and feel sick about it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
This actually isn't all that abnormal!. Stress causes a lot of people to have certain reactions, and vomiting is a rather common one!. It makes sense that if you think about an event, person, etc!. that caused/causes you stress or made/makes you feel nervous, then you might react by vomiting!. If you are in your teenage years or maybe your twenties, you may have a fairly common condition called dyspepsia, which would cause you to feel nauseous and get sick to your stomach in stressful situations!. The good side of that would be that many people outgrow it!. You also could just be going through a rough patch and this could all just be a phase!. There are certain medicines you can take to calm your stomach and stop the vomiting!. I recommend Phenergan, although you would have to have a prescription for that!.

Yep, if you felt sick at the time!. If you tend to recall the event vividly, your brain remembers the incident and remembers the emotional and physical response you had, it does not know that whatever the trigger was is not happening again, it thinks it is, so you get a similar response!. Memories that are attached to an emotion are far more vivid than survival memories (like how to do Math, how to drive etc)!.

About 35 years ago (God I am old) I went shopping with my mother and ate a cream filled donut!. I also bought a jigsaw puzzle!. Whether the cream was off, whether it was too hot in the shopping mall, whether I got car sick, I felt queasy for about an hour afterwards!. For a long time I could not bring myself to do the puzzle, because every time I looked at the box, I felt sick, for several years after, whenever I did do the puzzle I felt sick!.
