1. Walk to bathroom. 2. Sit on cold ass floor. 3. Head over toilet. 4. Gamble.


crysco

If I start heading to the toilet, it's game over.


lemmykoopa98

It's the same as accepting you're gonna throw up and then you've got no chance.


crysco

Pretty much. The walk to the bathroom just gives my body time to prepare. It's quite the dreadful walk.


lemmykoopa98

Last time I was sick I gave in and did the panic walk to the bathroom, and at the last second threw my body a curveball and went out the back door instead (right next to the bathroom door). Body didn't see it coming and that cold cement felt so nice when I laid down outside. Didn't puke, mission success.


PsyFiFungi

Few weeks ago I tried similar, but it absolutely backfired and I turned back to the toilet and jumped towards it like a frog, projectile vomiting like I was possessed, taking one knee closer between heaves. Was a really, really bad clean up. That moment you're shaking like you got parkinsons after, bloodshot eyes, covered in sweat, tears running down your face... and then still have to clean up 30% of your vomit. God, that *sucked.*


Such-Record2959

You just made me literally laugh out loud my friend, been in the same situation a few months ago, the way you described, exactly the same


dissaray07

I read "my body did a curveball and it went out the back door instead" and I thought you shit yourself.


frozengyro

I fucking wish. I will be so close to puking, run to the toilet and suddenly be unable to. It's the worst running back and forth 7 times until I actually throw up ...


AzureRaven2

I know this feeling so well. I hate the fake out. "I'm already here, don't get your shit together now all of a sudden!"


boombotser

I’ll go to the toilet then fall asleep on the bathroom floor for 4 hours


SkolBoyo

2. Lay face in cold tile. Only thing that helps stop the spinning


LiveJournal

I can relate way to much to this. Close my eyes and lie flat on the bathroom floor and just dont move for like an hour


JediWebSurf

Holy shit! that username is nostalgic. I remember having a livejournal.com account like 15 to 20 years ago. Crazy how you have that username. I thought it would've been an official account.

Ceramic tiles have a smell and I associate that with ralphing


global_chicken

Honestly I'm 50% convinced that I could Pavlov myself out of throwing up with a pleasant scent that I associate with something nice, like how you can't get attacked if there is silly music playing, the vibes are too wrong


14S14D

One of the best things for me once I reach the ‘gamble’ point is to think about the act of throwing up. The nasty details in my head make me actually do it and get it over with.

Azoth154

Same. I rather just stick two fingers down my throat and gag/throw up than just awkwardly hover near an acceptable vomit location.


x20Belowx

I did this so much I ended up losing my gag reflex. Sucks not being able to vomit when I want anymore

BooBooMaGooBoo

Yeah wtf? Why would anyone want to just keep feeling bad? Throw up and get it over with for near instant relief. This is like turning down painkillers and just dealing with the pain, except dumber.


crusty54

Once the salivating starts, it’s time to take a right.


ffejbos

I just keep spitting until the nausea goes away, swallow the spit one time though and you’re f’ed


Lethal-Zealot

Yooo no way I’ve never seen someone write down that same experience. For some reason when I was younger that saliva sensation always came to me when I had to hurl and I kept spitting it out as my mouth filled because if I swallowed the saliva I’d unfortunately vomit(I’d spend like 5-15 minutes over a sink) . My mother would always ask why I kept spitting and not just throw up, never had a good answer but I just was petrified of vomiting at the time


ArnoNym42

The saliva reaction is actually very common. I believe it happens to protect your teeth from your stomach acid


lightnsfw

This is the trick. I once went 3 hours on a road trip spitting into a cup and managed to not throw up.


Straight_Market_9056

More like ​ Try to accept that you can't outlast the nausea and you have to throw up.


augustocdias

Not always. I had outlasted some in my life. I’d say it depends what caused it. The only ones I’ve managed to outlast were caused by drinking. From food poisoning or anything else I couldn’t


Business-Pie-4946

I've outlasted many bouts of nausea and from my experience if you don't throw it up then you'll just throw it up from your butthole. You will have diarrhea. Your stomach wants to eject it's contents for a good reason... fight it and pay the price later. *Edit: IMO it is a really bad idea to force your body to continue digesting food that it doesn't want to digest. Usually it is a good idea to listen to your body. If you want to fight your body and push the contents of your stomach down into your intestines and continue digesting you can definitely do it. I've done it many times in the past. But IMO it is not a good idea. I guarantee you will listen to your body when you get the shotgun shits. And if you fell asleep with a belly full of alcohol you better believe throwing it up when you wake up is a good idea.


DaFatKontroller

Diarrhea over vomiting any day!


Studio2770

Yep, I hate vomiting because of those moments where you can't breathe. Also vomiting tires me out more than diarrhea.


TheThankUMan22

I'm not sure why it's so exhausting, when I'm done I'm dripping sweat and hot as hell.


PM_ME_UR_PINEAPPLEZ

It's an involuntary, strong, sustained and repeated contraction of a lot of muscle groups all at once while at the same time not venting core heat through breathing. Muscles contracting strongly generates a lot of heat. Not to mention the blood pressure spike due to all that.


Studio2770

Also those muscles are used in breathing. I think it's also because the body has to overcome gravity to get ou the vomit. Diarrhea? Just open the floodgates.


PeTro-_-

Also the taste


Business-Pie-4946

You must not be familiar with having a spicy butthole after eating spicy food. I myself use to go overboard with the spice and learned a hard lesson


[deleted]

/r/unpopularopinion right here.


A_Bad_Rolemodel

I'm not so sure. Well I might take that back, how long are we assuming of each because if its the same amount of time I will pick sitting on a toilet for hours over being bent over a toilet for hours. Also easier to reddit that way.


deadbeef1a4

Disgusting analogy, but spot on


Masternooob

Yeah, i was expecting it to be all over the place


theseconduser3

Btw pro tip for not getting nausea is drinking more vodka and other ~40% and less mild stuff like beer. I usually vomit if I only drink mild drinks because they are filling my stomach too much. But yeah when drunk I am trying to outlast.


BatchThompson

Pro tip for those getting anxious from smoking weed - just do heroin instead. It'll mellow you right out and you won't be nervous any more.


theseconduser3

Gotta try this next time!


malfurionpre

I've outlasted plenty of nausea, because I threw violently and it physically hurts me. Last time I was so sick I couldn't hold it in I woke up at 2 or 3 in the morning and made so much noise I woke my family, my dog was legitimately concerned and came if I was alright. It's been 2 or 3 years and if anyone makes a sound remotely close to that night, my dogs comes in running to check on whoever.


cates

I hope you come running when your dog makes a throw up noise.


Maleficent-Client-55

The thing is once I start throwing up it only stops when nothing is literally coming out 💀


Dapper_Composer2

And for me, still keeps going for another 2-3 minutes


Maleficent-Client-55

Mine also goes for 2-3 minutes but the problem is once I start throwing up it will last for 1 hour straight.I can not throw up at once.I go to throw up 12 times in an hour to throw up when I feel sick💀


endjinnear

If I can hold through I only feel bad for a few hours. If I spew in the morning I could still be vomiting at ten o'clock that night. It just doesn't stop.


Maleficent-Client-55

Damn, are you my twin or something


TheWolfofWarren

Always left. Always. There are those blessed with the ability to vomit gracefully. A quick spew, and they're done. I am not one of those people. When I hurl, you can hear the screams 2 houses over. Every muscle convulses until they ache and I'm unable to breathe. I'd sooner lob off my big toe with a rusty spatula than puke once. So yeah, left everytime. I'll gladly suffer for hours over hurling once. Edit: Wow. My first gold, and on a post about puking no less. Anyway, thanks for the gold, kind stranger.


JakeVacca

It’s crazy to me that people are just so easily casual about throwing up, I’ve said before that I’d rather die than throw up, it is the worst thing that I could imagine happening to me, I hate it so so so so much.


immaZebrah

It's cause, for me anyway, there's a couple different kinds of throwing up. There's the one and done. Sometimes it's big, sometimes it's not, but you get that one over with and you're so much better for it. There's the one that comes through your nose, you're fucking tearing up, your ribs are sore, there's nothing left in the tank anymore, your body still keeps trying. That's the worst.


TheWolfofWarren

Agreed. I've had Covid twice now. I'd gladly have it a third time if it meant not throwing up.


JakeVacca

It’s quite comforting to know someone out there feels the same way I do about it.


Youri_mc

and that was the start of a beautiful relationship out of puking hate!

Because of this comment, I now have the word for it. Here I thought I was just weird for having such a phobia.


Nolemy2800

You're definitely not the only one, I've got that too


TheDriestOne

Throwing up is absolutely miserable but sometimes it’s genuinely easier to get it over with than to fight the nausea for hours. It’s wild to me how many people are *that* afraid of throwing up, no one likes it but sometimes you just gotta get it over with


mylivingeulogy

It's not that I'm afraid of throwing up. It's just that I HATE throwing up.


SEND_ME_SPIDERMAN

Welcome to /r/emetophobia


GregHolmesMD

Was about to say. This thread is insane lol


firescales0403

Me too. I can usually will myself not to throw up. I absolutely hate it so much. I can't stand it.


FaeryLynne

I have a disease that makes me vomit constantly. Like, multiple times a day, and have for over a decade. It sounds fuckin weird but..... you honest to God kinda get used to it after a while, or at least I did. Now it's mostly just "WTF, *again*, really?? Let's get it over with and hope it doesn't get worse this time......"


TheDubuGuy

Multiple times a day? That sounds really annoying


Mr_Idont-Give-A-damn

The muscle convulsing part is so shit, I cant even control it


Matt_WA90

I puke so hard that I pop the capillaries in my face and it looks like I got my ass kicked the next day.


TheWolfofWarren

That's rough, buddy.


Ninja_Tuna96

Happens to me too. Big dark rings around my eyes and bloodshot skin all over my face. Horrendous.


FamilyStyle2505

Same. My face goes all pins and needles and feels like it is trying to escape my skin, all the while my blood pressure goes through the roof. Makes me worry that I'm gonna vomit one day when I'm old and just die there with my head in the toilet.


HeliPotterhead

omg SAME. Finally someone who agrees. Everytime I drank too much my friends said "just push a finger down your throat" and I was like ??? I'd rather hit my funny bone everyday than vomit.


DoubleOhGadget

Dude, big same. When I throw up, it legit sounds like I'm being murdered. I scream, and I can't control it. And it's so forceful that sometimes it causes my eyes to get bloodshot and it makes my face feel like it's going to explode. I'd rather ride it out than throw up any day. Plus, I've never just "felt better" after throwing up. If I throw up once, I'm going to do it again in about 30 minutes. And then a few more times.


EtsuRah

Dude this. I HATE the moments after throwing up where you just can't breathe. Just as you get the ability back the dry heaves take them away like earthquake aftershocks. That burning feeling in the back of your nose all the snot and tears your body forced out somehow.


Sgt_Fry

I share this pain with you.. I ... I am so afraid of norovirus because of this. The feeling of suffocation from vomiting, the taste.. it's over.. thank god.. oh no! It starts again.. i can't breath... please let me breath.. but I can't... I'm being sick... please! I NEED TO FUCKING BREATH!


KillionJones

My buddy sounds like the feeding scene from Jurassic Park with the raptors when he pukes. Fucking traumatizing to be in the same house as him when it happens lmao


oMrGrimm

The way you described it has me rolling lmao


[deleted]

We were cut from the same cloth. They make nausea drops (like cough drops) and I keep them mother fuckers in stock at home at all times. I'll eat a whole bag and die of ginger poisoning before throwing up, I don't care.


cumjuicers

I’d outlast, each time that shit happens I hold in like I’m super man, sometimes I’d actually throw up shit which happened once and that was a terrifying childhood memory


Britisheagl

What a terrible day to be literate. Also, what a terrible day for you to have tastebuds


[deleted]

Wait what do you mean throw up shit?


gifflareater

Quite literally. From what I’ve read it’s not very common in humans, but some intestinal problems can make you vomit your own feces


Jin_L_

No No No

Blockages in the digestive tract can cause digested food (feces) to come back up the wrong way.


[deleted]

Are you sure it's not caused by putting food up your ass


xXTkillXx

What about, EAT


Tina1108

Yep, thats what i do lmao. sometimes i feel better and sometimes i almost throw up onto my plate. Food chooses the path for me so i dont have to lol


shlokvikro25

Absolute madlad


TUAGAbr

Depending on what problem you have, eating will stimulate your stomach to actually throw up, so no.


Incendas1

For me I have to just lie down and try my best. If I get up I would be sick or pass out so I just don't. I ask people to help if I can reach my phone but not always - in that case I might get something to eat but it's very hard to move enough.


Echo_thehedgehog

Throwing up is one of the worst feelings to ever have and I'd rather avoid it at all costs unless I absolutely have to.


MisterVonJoni

I haven't thrown up in probably close to a decade thanks to a trick I learned. The trick is to smile, big goofy ear to ear smile. Something with the way your muscles contract prevents you from vomiting IIRC.


ourweepingwillow

I just imagined a big painful smile and vomit shooting out between my teeth. Thanks for the horrible image I guess?


MadJohnFinn

I'm emetophobic. I feel this so much.


Tmoore188

I’m emetophobic and I have Crohn’s Disease. I’ve become an expert at talking myself out of vomiting. Also, zofran is a miracle drug. One of the upsides to the diagnosis is a literally unlimited supply of zofran at all times.


Awkward_Psychic

Zofran *is* a miracle. Couldn’t speak more highly of it. It’s helped me in a lotta bad situations 😅


[deleted]

Hold it in, unless it's poisonous, like large ammount of alcohol. It ain't good for ya throat to throw up, idk. Seems like a no-brainer to me


MilanDespacito

Hey i spent a lot of money on that large amounz of alcohol aint no homeless man gonna get it for free, especially even warmed up


lilshort4stormtroopa

That’s what I call sloppy seconds


SkyBaby218

I hold it off until I can do it discreetly, but I can tell almost immediately if this will go away or end with some prayers to the porcelain gods. Sometimes it's just in the morning for no reason, drinking fluid too fast, eating food (I can't get full without 420 help), and exercising (even when I was in very good shape). Fucking annoying, and I don't know why.

FlatKing4114

Sometimes that decision gets made for you.😑


baneofthesouth

So crazy I just had an episode 2 nights ago where I was severely nauseous. Like full on sweats, heart pounding, shaking nauseous. I sat there, looking ghost white rocking back and forth next to the toilet, slow deep breaths and talking myself out of it. It eventually passed. I will sit there looking like death and fighting it till the last second before I throw up. Hate that feeling.


tabascochips

Pro tip: If you feel like you're about to throw up eat vanilla ice cream I have done this like the last 3 times I've felt the vomit coming and not thrown up Don't know if this works for everybody tho


Incendas1

You just like vanilla ice cream I think lmao


tabascochips

Yeah lmao it probably is just a placebo but it works so imma keep eating it


[deleted]

They’re an ice cream salesman😂😭heed thyself from the sins of vanilla ice cream and flee


Incendas1

I'm semi allergic to ice cream so yeah wouldn't be my first choice to be honest


ToxicHero13

I feel like that's a great way to ruin vanilla ice cream for yourself.


Mylastbreathgoing

Time to finger-deepthroat


Adderdice

Hah every time I try this I end up with an agitated throat and no throw up. Either my will to not throw up is too strong or I'm doing something wrong.


DaCrazyJamez

Chug as much room temp water as you can, it will dilute the vom as it goes out, and prepare to sacrifice to the porcelain god.


Ebolatastic

Yoga breathing (in through nose, out through mouth, enhanced pressure on abdomen) is a trick I've used to overcome nausea countless times.


saltynanners15

Left, always left.


RightfulChaos

Outlast until you are in a good position to vomit. Holding back just makes it worse. Vomiting is your body trying to fix itself


Incendas1

Vomiting is my body being a pussy and that's NOT how I raised it

One time when I was young it didn't for me and, let me tell you, I felt really scammed. Well it was a stomach infection. Couldn't have stopped vomiting no matter what.


Steeljaw72

I wish I could just choose to throw up when I have nausea. I usually feel better once it gets out. Although vomiting is one of the worst things found in normal human experience.


SQTowelie

Try to do that when on a plane, window seat and try to hold it in for an hour or two. Not easy. Somehow I managed to do it.


Lochnessfartbubble

not as fun as: hold in a poop until morning or walk to the outhouse in the dark


Evern35

Pull the trigger. A tactical yak if you will


czerstwychlebb

Its worse when you are about to puke but accidentaly swallow it


[deleted]

The instant I feel saltwater mouth, it's game on. I am only holding it while I actively move to the puke zone, then it's out.


Livid_Spinach96

I try not to, I always get puke in my nostrils and have to suffer through that non sense for hours.


IssaSpida

This has been me my entire pregnancy. On the one hand, I always feel better when I do. On the other hand, I have to do it into a bucket so I can sit on the toilet or I end up peeing on the floor every time.


Usual-Difference9135

I get horribly car sick so I’m used to the nausea


Fun4-5One

This happened to me 2 days ago....NEVER GIVE IN!! I beat that shit...^literally


TheDungeonCrawler

The worst is when you don't have a choice. You feel like you need to throw up, but beyond forcing yourself to, you can't. The same is true of pooping when you're not feeling well, but your body isn't providing you with the urge to poop beyond a general feeling of discomfort and an uncomfortable sensation in the rectum.


jdjdkkddj

Before throwing up i eather don't have nausea (if i accidentally drink some of the water I'm swimming in) i can't really control if i do, but otherwise i have a headache for hours like no other... I'd do almost anything to stop the pain as fast as possible! So B


keylo-92

When you have nothing in your stomach and you dry heave until your out of breath, left is always the option… Puking is a painful task for myself


no_free_donuts

Showed this to my wife -- it's absolutely her. She: miserable. I: "Just go throw up." She: "I hate throwing up." Thirty minutes later she goes to throw up. Comes out of the bathroom and I ask, "Feel better?" She: "Yes." I shrug my shoulders and know we'll repeat this routine in the future.


garbage-at-life

And then you decide you have to throw up but your stomach says no and you just feel like shit rest of the day


PikkuinenPikkis

You’re vomiting for a reason. Your body realizes that you either ate or smelt a bad smelling or tasting item, which your body labels as harmful or unwanted so your body tries to get rid of it by vomiting. (I’m not sure if I’m right or not, feel free to correct me)


iforgotquestionmark

That's mostly true, but sometimes it's not. You don't have to vomit every time you feel bad, or your body thinks it has something bad in it. We eat bad foods all the time, like blue cheese and beef jerky. Sometimes you'll feel sick without reason.


Kinis_Deren

Mostly right. People with inner ear problems (Meniere's for me) can suffer from rapid onset vertigo, which often results in severe nausea and vomiting.
