The fear of being sick tends to affect more women than men, and tends to have a very disabling effect on the sufferer. The fear of being sick can trigger many avoidance behaviours; quite often you have to avoid all places where there is a possibility of being sick or seeing others being sick; this can include eating out, parties, pubs, restaurants, clubbing, eating in front of others etc. Because of the association between eating and being sick, you can feel a little obsessive and worry excessively about what and where you will eat.

 

A lot of sufferers tend to view being sick as 'horrible and dirty'. Emetophobia can dictate your travel arrangements due to the strong association with travel sickness. Emetophobia really can have a profound effect on you and can affect almost every area of your life.
