Hi Barb,

Fear is equally great whether home alone or out in public. No fear of choking or not breathing properly. Just thinks that vomiting is the most disgusting thing there could be. Has said "It should be outlawed" and that nobody should have to do something so disgusting and awful. Like I said, I really think the food poisoning as a child is key here, causing this adult phobia (it didn't surface for over 12 years mildly,10 more years before it became this severe), especially since it's so vividly remembered in detail over 30 years later. I guess there had to be a predisposition for this to trigger a phobic response even years later...but what, why? I just don't know.

Thanks,
Sunny
