Having the fear means that you are just like any other person that is not bullimic, alot of people think that they want to throw up but just can't thats a good thing, trust me you dont want to once you do its addicting.

i know. and its a good thing that im not bulimic..but idk what im supposed to do about the guilt >.

....is there a name for fear of vomiting?...anyone know?

I completely understand wow I didnt know there was anyo ne else. I wish I could. but I guess Its a good thing I dont I'm already small enough I guess I look at it as a quick fix. I'm anorexic. I completely understand

Fear of vomiting: Normal.
No one I know would vomit willingly unless compelled by something as horrible as an eating disorder. It's normal, non-ED behavior to fear vomiting. It's uncomfortable, feels unnatural and sometimes it's painful.

Yea. It is good that people who fear it dont become bulimic..i understand that. I think a lot of people, if it wasnt a fear would do it...i believe once i heard a name for it as a phobia one time..? idk. anyone have an answer?

emetophobia
I think I understand what you're talking about. If you feel guilt after you've eaten then there is something wrong. Maybe instead of trying to work out how to deal with the guilt you should get some help in working out why you're feeling guilty about eating.Having a fear of vomitting stop you becoming bulemic is convenient, but it's not really ideal. It would be great if you didn't want to make yourself sick at all.

idk. i've lost my appetite recently..and i've barely eaten anything for the past 4 days or so. when i do eat...i feel horrible about it...any suggestions?

All I can say is thank god you are scared of it. Because if you weren't scared of it, you'd end up in a worse position.

I was always afraid of throwing up even when I was still a healthy child. I thought I would choke to death. So whenever I got the stomach flu I had diarrhea instead of vomiting.
After I became anorexic I tried it a few times. Last time my whole body was itching even my head and I was read all over. I had to undress completetly and put lotion all over me. It was so painful I'll never do it again. Plus it takes so much effort on my body that I think I will have a heart attack. It's good to be afraid.

Sorry you are feeling guilty about eating Punkee. This stemming from low self esteem or just that you arent hungry? I find what works is telling urself something positive in the mirror each morning (You work up an appetite being positive ;)) even if you don't really mean it. This does really work ^_^!

well i cant deny have an incredibly low self esteem...but its just lately..like the past week..i havent been hungry at all..i cant eat like i used to. i cant finish what i used to be able to..its weird..and kinda scaring me....
