Fear of vomiting? (please help)?

Ok, so ever since i was little i have had bad emetophobic (fear of vomiting). I dont vomit alot though (thank God) but i have an emensce fear of the Stomach Flu. I take vitamins and drink orange juice everyday, wash my hands before i eat, all that good stuff. But i still cant shake my fear of getting it. I know I'll get it sometime in my life so how do i deal with it? If any of you also are emetophobic how do you deal with this?

P.S. It runs in my family so both my 18 year old brother and 13 year old sister have it to and its getting worse as we grow up.

I used to have the same fear until I got pregnant and had to face morning sickness LOL

You can always look into support groups for emetophibia - call a local health resource and explain your situation :)

welcome to the club, i'm an emetiphobic too! i hate it. ever since i was a kid i was like this, and i just cant shake it. i try to stay away from situations that might have vomiting involved. like at the amusement park, if i see someone eating a bunch of food before getting on a scary ride, i will not sit near them. and if i see someone getting sick i will run or jump out of the car.

I used to be like that too, but then I started making myself vomit out of fear of becoming fat and now even sometimes I dread vomiting but force myself to.
