Is it normal that i have a fear of vomit?

79% Normal

As I've grown older, I've noticed that I get anxiety when,

1. Someone throws up in front of me
2. Talks about throwing up and/or stories about it
3. When I think I'm going to throw up, and when I do.

It's been a fear of mine since as long as I can remember. My family finds it strange, and I'm starting to question my sanity. All I know is, it feels like my heart is going to jump out of my chest at the thought of any of the listed sentences above. Is this normal?

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

You must be living one hell of a life with all this vomiting and talk of it. Honestly how often would this even come up?

  A lot more than you would think. It's like it purposefully pops up in front of me.

You have an irrational fear of something. Welcome to the human race.

When I was a kid I felt that way, but not so much now.

Normal to be afraid of vomit, although not to the extreme extent you described.

Afraid of vomit? How about avoidance of vomit? I can be scared of a lion but not really going to be shitting myself over a pool of bile.
