Emetophobia: Fear of vomit or vomiting
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emeto...o εμετός,irracional relacionado con el vómito.
Hi and Merry Christmas to y'all, here is my story:
Since i was a kid i always considered myselft a pretty strong person, if i ever felt the necessity to puke i was always able to pull it off without puking. Only time i puked before turning 15 years old was at 2005 christmas (7 years old), i ate a very greasy turkey and spent all the night doing you know what.
Since that christmas i endured myself to not to puke, no matter the situation. My fears were always the symptoms (watery mouth) and the act itself (chest pain, my chest hurts A LOT whenever i puke, like its about to explode), i've never felt anything if i watched someone else puke.
But since i turned 15 everything has turned to worse, at that age i got an insolation, that night i just had slight headache, but when i had my dinner containing fresh white cheese (also known as Ranchero cheese in Mexico, it also contains a bit of whey) a few hours later my mouth got all watery and i couldnt hold back. It hurt A LOT (Ranchero cheese's whey is very acidic, so it burned my esophagus).
Looks like i got PTSD from that night, since then i get too anxious when i feel like i'm overheating (possibly because i associated with the insolation half the bad things that happened) my mom also associated my sickness with artificially curdled cheese, but we lived in a rural area, and thats very rare there, so i forgot about it and starting extra care with sun exposition.
I started drinking at 18 years old (minimum age in mexico) and I've been always very cautious with it (eating before drinking, consuming water when i have the chance) so, i lived a very peaceful 5 years (from 15 to 20) but last year, last year i got insolated again, and that day i fucking ate cheese again, i ate the same cheese a week before and nothing happened, but that day the cheese felt different, saltier, so when i got sick, i was again wondering what triggered that but all my family got sick too, so i blamed cheese. That day fortunately i turned my nausea into diarrhea, i don't know how, i just hold the nausea until that turned into the feeling was that i wanted to take a shit. I was dehydrated by the end of it, but at least i didnt puke, yay!!
But 4 months ago (august) i had to arrange some business at 2 pm, so i got fucking insolated again (and the mask i was wearing just made it worst for the overheating), the day after that i had 2 sandwiches for dinner, but guess what, i decided to put some Ranchero cheese slices in them, im now living in a city, so, artificially curdled cheese is very common, i ate them at around 9:00 pm, by 3:00 i wake up feeling cramps, i burped and felt cheese flavour, so im doomed i said, got up from bed, took pepto, anti-vomit pills and some tea. It didnt work, i couldnt turn it into diarrhea this time. When the watery mouth started there was no turning back, i puked like never before, i even cried out of fear and pain.
So that brings me here, christmas, i ate some tamales (six) three of them had cheese, cooked cheese, but Ranchero cheese nontheless. That was 1 hour ago, pressumably i have a maximum of 6 hours left to present symptoms or declare VICTORY!! i've never got anxiety attacks, but i feel that im pretty close, goddammit.
Its worth mentioning, before august i ate cheese regulary, but that time my family didnt got sick, but the cheese reflux was what waked me up, so i didnt know what to blame.
