Hope for the future

Success!

Hello everyone! I haven’t been on this subreddit in a very long time. But I want to share my story to help those of you that feel like this will never end. I promise I was just as bad if not worse in the emetophobia spiral than most of you. It started in 2020 and just got worse and I felt like I’d never see the end. This sounds crazy, but one day my anxiety shifted and I haven’t been scared of being sick since! Even if it feels endless, I promise things can get better for all of you. If there is anything anyone needs please message me. I understand how isolating this phobia can be. I went through a million different treatments so I’m not saying it will magically go away for everyone. My first tip though: get off Reddit! Seeing everyone that feels the same way as you reinforces that it’s a normal way to think and it is not!! I wish you all the best <3
