Is it normal to be deathly afraid of vomiting?

66% Normal
12 Comments

I am so afraid to vomit. I have only thrown up twice as an adult and it terrified me. I constantly worry about getting sick or being around other who are sick in case I catch it. When my kids were young, I got extremely nervous when they threw up. I couldnt clean it up or be around it. This fear tortures me.

Is It Normal?

    Puking is highly unpleasant and uncomfortable, but it's not something I'm afraid of, it's just something that happens.

    I have just finished a chemotherapy treatment, which involved vomiting 4-5 times (EVERY SINGLE DAY). Take it from me, if you think about it all the time, it WILL happen to you or anyone else you're related to. Its not even that scary and it doesnt happen often at all. Have some peace of mind :)

    I'm scared of it too... not so much if I myself am ill, but others around me. It's horrid.

    I have never thrown up, maybe that's why it's a fear of mine.
