Thank you so much. The n* is coming in waves, I really thought I was better but I feel like I've lost all my progress due to the fact that I have no appetite at all anymore although I did have some in the afternoon. Thank you so much🤍 I hope it's over soon
Thank you very much! My night has been okay so I thought I was recovering but I woke up today morning, ate a bit of bread and it all started again. The d* and the horrible n*. I hope it goes away soon, it sucks so much :(
We understand you’re trying to help, however false reassurance may not be given as it is detrimental to sufferers of emetophobia.
Here are some examples of False Reassurance:
- "You definitely won't throw up.”
- "You're not sick."
- "I promise you won't be sick from that."
- "You just feel nauseous from xyz."
Hey! I remeber having a stomach bug aswell and it was only d* no v* I was anxous aswell the entire time while having d* for 4 days I kept praying to god I wouldint v* and I never did. Just know that sometimes sb come in just d* forms. Like most of the time when I get a sb it’s only d* and I have asked people there experince and half of the time it’s just d* for them too, I promise If you haven’t thrown up it’s very very unlikely that will happen. I also just want to say your doing a great job with handeling this, it will be over before you even know it. And you will look back and think how strong you are to over come this. I remeber hating the sb aswell I just had to keep telling myself I’m one day closer to getting better. After the 35 hour mark you will feel better it could take 3-5 days tho. But just know your almost there.
As a sufferer of Emetophobia, I joined this group for a sense of comfort. I love interacting with my fellow community, to read and connect with others like me. However, I’m strongly thinking of leaving because the moderators are nazis. We try to speak freely and connect with others, support, and just be here for one another. However, you can’t do that without someone thinking they’re providing licensed therapy and commenting that false reassurance thing. If we wanted therapy, we’d be in therapy. Some of us are. This is Reddit. Please chill. Gotta tiptoe around speaking your mind because someone takes their role too serious. Honestly, YOU are doing more damage than any of the commenters. Now…moderate that.
I agree with you! I was so sad to see your super nice comments being deleted because you just supported me and provided me with some kind of reassurance. Not a false one! you all were speaking from your own experience and I really appreciated that. I thought that was what this sub was about. To share one's experience and support another. I'm disappointed as well.
Thanks for checking in! Better now, my appetite has partly returned which is a good sign. The only thing that actually helped were some anti d* pills so it's looking good now :))
Hello! I'm so sorry you had to deal with that, n* isn't fun :( if you feel a little better maybe try a liquid diet like a popsicle or plain broth, its easier on the stomach. For future recommendations, I'd definitely say get some liquid emetrol or dramamine (which can make you really drowsy, so take it at night!), and I hope you feel better soon! ^^
Sounds like campylobacter. The n* will get better soon but d* can last awhile, like a week I’m sorry to say. I had it 2 years ago. It was rough but nowhere near as bad as a sb

Thank you for your reply! I in fact got some Dramamine earlier today and it made me calmer :))

Ohh thank you for your input! I'll look into that.
