What is Emetophobia? and can Hypnotherapy provide a cure?

There are many names for Emetophobia including Vomit Phobia, Phagaphobia, fear of being sick, fear of gagging, globushystericus and many more. Essentially emetophobia is where a person has a completly irrational fear of being sick, or someone else around them vomitting. However, the one thing that is certain with Emetophobia and different to other phobias is that it always has a significant negative impact on the sufferer's life.

This can range from having a limited social life as Emetophobes are oftern worried about eating in restaurants and drinking alcohol (or being surrounded by people who are), to refusing to fly as people may be sick on the plane, or the movement may make a person feel sick or nauseaus.

Emetophobia affects more women than men. Quite often female sufferes of vomit phobia will put off having children due to concerns about coping with morning sickness and babies being ill. In cases where emetophobes do have children they often feel intense guilt if their child is unwell and their partner has to step in and assist due to their phobic reaction..
