My real-time reaction as an ex-emetophobe
My 3 Year Old Caught a Sickness Bug
(And Here's How I Got Through It)
This is a real, unfiltered story recorded in real time. Below are ten short videos, around an hour in total. In these videos I walk you through exactly what happened when my daughter got a sickness bug, what I did, what I thought, and what I'd want you to know if you're facing this situation yourself.

My Emetophobia didn't disappear overnight.
I worked incredibly hard to get to this place but it was worth every bit of effort so I could be there for my daughter in the way I wanted to be. 😌
If you're an emetophobe reading this because you're currently dreading the next time there is a sickness bug in your house, or because it just happened and you're trying to hold it together, this series is for you. I filmed it as it unfolded so you could see the real thing, not a tidied up version after the fact.
But don't worry, there is NO EXPOSURE here! ❌
You don't see or hear anything at all, it's just me chatting through what was going on in my mind at the time.
You can watch the videos in order or jump to the bit you think will be most useful for you right now. I hope you find them useful. Much love, Michelle 💛 x
