WHAT
is your phobia? I am expert in phobias - most therapists, even
psychiatrists - suffer phobias. Emetophobia can't be cured as 'exposure'
therapy is counter-productive. Do you have ideas that are not tried? I
am a trained (applied psychology) health professional and still - #Phobias

- Sara Angel Blakey Not particularly, just that unmentionable and I don't know why, or what caused it, but has been worse since my son had two unexplained ones.
- Sara Angel Blakey Not that I'm aware of. I would like to ask my mum if I did as a child but it's not easy getting answers from family members long story. Xx
- Sara Angel Blakey I have to write lists as my short term memory is terrible. Worse when anxiety or bpd is playing up.
- Danielle Card My mum always says to me when I ask her about when I was ill when I was little oh I'm not even answering you as it'll give you something to worry over x
- Leah Aradia Sadler Don't know if it's a phobia or not but the sound of people eating, crunching or smacking their lips makes me fly off the handle and I get so ANGRY xD
- Ghod Sue Danielle - hear ya - but nobody's perfect, mostly people are doing their best with the hand they were dealt, same for all folks really -,if you 'feed' fear with negatives, it grows. If you feed the mind with positives or 'blanks' when anxious, it reduces the pain (see Mindfulness) Increase tolerance to all things, this opens your life a lot. Diversify!
- Elizabeth Hopkins Packed trains tubes or buses i have massive panic attacks its taking over my life ;-(
- Danielle Card Emetophobia is ruling my life daily and death phobia stops me doing so much in the fear I'll drop dead have heart attack
Like right now in sat here worrying I've caught a bug as my stomach feels off but this is a daily thing - Ghod Sue Danielle, me too.I suffered all my life and tried every therapy known. One thing I learned is we're all unique, we often have personality types and disorders,and that challenging our belief systems is vital in order to break negative patterns (gotta run, feel free to ad/follow) x

- Nicola Fisker I find it really scary that anyone can put themself up as someone who is an expert when really they don't belong to any of the above organisations that Zara listed at all. I think I will stick with the NHS thanks and people who have trained correctly.
- Andy XIl-Ilx terrible there are lots of these kind of people setting themselves up and making money out of peoples misery and usually messing people up more than they were in the first place.
- Nikki Knackinoonoo Peakes I noticed that. Expert? My arse! If it looks too good to be true, it probably is...........
