I have this fear too, though not my biggest. Oddly, it's only one personal incident that burned this into my mind: when my mother told me (when I was sick) not to keep throwing up or I wouldn't be able to stop. That ended up fusing with later years' horror stories about bulimics who *also* weren't able to stop throwing up even when they wanted to, and now I pretty much fight it when I can as 99% of the time it's allergies that bother my stomach.
Is it normal that I'm really scared of throwing up?
