Last night I had a dream that I was sick twice and it felt so real and now I’m really freaking out and it’s making me feel sick and I’m scared that it was my body telling me that it’s going to happen. I’m panicking so hard right now because I just made a bowl of cereal and now I can’t even eat it because I’m getting so anxious and then that’s making me think it’s about to happen. I don’t know if it’s in my stomach or just a anxious throat feeling but either way it’s so bad and idk what to do

So I was going over to my boyfriends mums house today to watch the eclipse with him and his family and I asked if after he wanted to stay at my house. He said no because he was feeling a bit shitty. I don’t know if he meant literally or mentally or both? I had a bit of a panic attack over it on the phone before I left because I told him I can’t go over if he thinks he could have a sick bug. He’s not really been round anyone except his family and every one of them is fine and not showing any symptoms of a sick bug. He said his body just felt a bit heavy and he didn’t really want to eat anything, but he DID eat and he was fine. He’s not showing any symptoms of nausea, stomach cramps, diarrhoea, high fever, he’s showing none of it. I’m thinking maybe if anything he just has a cold coming? It has been a bit cold and rainy for a few weeks cause I’m in Scotland so unlike England it has been colder so it would make more sense and seem as he’s hardly left the house. I didn’t kiss him today at all, I gave him a hug though and held his hand but sanitised it straight after incase. I fully believe with my heart he’s fine and he’s not got a bug cause it doesn’t really make sense how he would have one but my head just won’t listen. I keep thinking in my head he’ll be throwing up tomorrow and then there’s nothing I can do at that point. But if he’s only got a heavy feeling body out of EVERYTHING not even the slightest bit of nausea then surely that means he’s fine? Help!

I know I’m okay in my heart but my mind is going crazy rn. I had a Burger King with my gran and cousins and it was amazing, everyone else is fine from what I know, I’ve not really heard from them. My brain is telling me I HAVE food poisoning when it literally makes no sense. I don’t feel sick, I don’t have stomach cramps, I’ve been passing stool normally there’s so indicators as to why I WOULD have food poisoning but I’m panicking so much of the thought of me having it?! Anyone else have this? I literally know I’m being stupid but I can’t get it out my head. The thing that set me off was a weird feeling in my belly but the only thing I’ve ate today WAS that Burger King and it’s currently midnight so like maybe I’m just hungry and I’m mixing hunger with feeling sick which I do often. Another thing is my throat closing up but that always happens to me when I get anxious over stuff like this. I always get super anxious when I can hear my stomach too if anyone else can relate? Like normal bodily functions such as my belly rumbling or feeling my digestive system work just FREAK me out and all that’s happening rn. I don’t know how to persuade myself that I’m actually fine and I’m being irrational. I KNOW that I am because it doesn’t make sense when I think about it but like my body won’t let me fully believe

Okay so I am an extreme overthinker and I’ll probably be calling 3 different optician practices after this to make sure.

I went to Specsavers yesterday to ask if they were selling any solar eclipse glasses. The woman said they weren’t but I’m safe to use sunglasses AS LONG as they have uv protection on them. What does this mean? Can I look at the eclipse with those glasses just for like 2/3 seconds? Will it be uncomfortable but it won’t cause any severe damage to the retina?

I bought cheesecake from Tesco about 2 days ago and it was up on the 8th (yesterday). Just there I thought it was the 8th today so I had maybe 3/4 spoonfuls just from like the tub itself. It didn’t smell off, it didn’t look bad, and it was in the fridge since I bought it. Will I be okay after having those small spoonfuls bites?

There’s a solar eclipse in my country on Wednesday, I’m going out to see it but should I make some eclipse water?

I just wanted to ask if the anxiety you get during an emetaphobia attack or an anxiety attack is different to how sick you feel when you actually are about to be sick? It’s hard to tell when you have emetaphobia because we get the slightest bit of nausea and we think it’s gonna happen when it’s not 😭

I’m from Glasgow, I’d love to go to a renfair but I’m just unsure where I can go for one. I’ve probably missed all the main ones since I suppose they’d all be in the summer but it’d be good for next year :)

Hi I’m super super freaking out this time like I’m actually shaking so much gc I’m

Basically I tried a weed pen for the first time and so it was my boyfriends and it was the fried I’ve tried ANYTHING. Basically at the start I wasn’t even taking it right I took like 3/4 hits that lasted a half second and I i didn’t even inhale then then I took 2 like 1 second puffs still was hardly inhaling but then I eventually took 3 normal puffs which my boyfriend me through so that I’d actually feel something. I still don’t think I was even high because I think what I was feeling. Part of it was a placebo since it was my first time. My vision was normal and my eyes were honestly fine since the last one I took, wasn’t coughing till the last one. All I was and am is just still kinda hungry and really really tired like I’m falling asleep while writing this. I honestly don’t think I took enough to be feeling bad side effects even my boyfriend said that like it joust kinda in my head

I’m so so tired but I just can’t seem to settle down. I ate fish goujons and smiley faces earlier on and they were super nice like they’re literally a safe food and I eat them EVERY time I’m at my grans. But I’ve been overthinking since I ate them about 7 hours ago because they were a bit soggy and floppy. They were 100% cooked right and I had drenched them in vinegar like always and they always are a bit floppy yet this time after the amount of times I’ve ate them I’m just freaking out about it and have been all day. I don’t have any symptoms of food poisoning so it’s the only thing keeping me going. I think I can’t settle either because I’m not in my own home sleeping. Recently I’ve been finding it hard to sleep anywhere except my on room which is annoying because I used to love staying with my gran :( anyway I’m just super stressed although in my head I know I’m fine but the anxiety just won’t go away

My stomach is getting such sharp pains but at the same time I can feel so much gas so I think I might just have to pass a lot of gasbut it’s still stressing me out cause the pain is quite bad. I’ve had two croissants and some apple just so hopefully I can feel a bit better.

Good news is though I finally went to doctors about my anxiety today. I spoke about my anxiety, emetophobia and low moods and I’m going to get counselling so hopefully things can get better for me now!

I’m still full up from the ice cream I ate a few hours ago + I had a big dinner but I don’t necessarily feel SICK. I was just about to go to sleep when my mind started thinking about the possibility of getting a sick bug, the possibility of someone I could’ve met in the last few days or even tomorrow, having a sick bug and what would happen to me if that did happen. Why does this happen to me!! Like I’ll feel completely fine and calm and all of a sudden I’ll think about things and it freaks me out so much.

I made a post a few days ago here because I felt sick because of my break with my boyfriend. It’s got to the point I physically couldn’t eat drink or I’m hardly sleeping, I feel so weak and I’m freaking myself out anymore cause it doesn’t make me feel healthy. Yesterday I done okay, had egg in a cup, yogurt with granola and a smoothie, today not soo good, only had a sandwich and a little bar of chocolate. Worst part is I can hardly drink water because my throat is closing up then cause my throats closing up I’m taking that as a sign I’m about to be sick because I associate EVERYTHING with being sick. The thing is it’s not exactly a break break it’s like really strict distance to better ourselves, to become less dependent on him, find my spark again because I had a really rough few months and things are just really shitty, I do wish we could’ve got help together but I respect his decision. My mum gave me a reality check tonight that reminded me of my worth and to stop letting it control me SO IM TRYING! I’m getting my hair done Sunday and getting my lashes done. Just gonna try give myself some self love but I just had to come on here cause I’m really panicking. I think I got through the worst of it though at the start so I doubt anything will happen. Again I think it’s just because my throat is tight

Today my boyfriend told me we should go on a break from our relationship and even though we spoke about what we want from it and how we both want to try again when we’re both mentally ready this honestly just feels as bad as a breakup.

I know it’s best because we’re both not in the right headspace, we’ve got a bit lazy with the relationship and we’ve lost ourselves like our personalities. He hasn’t been in a band in about a year etc and I’ve went through a major friend group loss + had been dealing with a r*lapse and s*icidal thoughts just a few months prior and it’s just made me into a person I don’t want to be.

I do plan on using this time to get therapy, make new friends and deal with my anxiety a bit better it’s just gonna be so hard now because I have even less motivation and I feel so lonely. He was one of the only people I had left and now I only have 2 friends, one lives 50 miles from me and the other we kind of fell apart.

I can’t stop crying, it’s giving my a sore head and a sore face in general like in my eyes and ears all hurt. It hurts more because he understood my emetaphobia and he always let me come to him when I was taking a panic attack and now I can’t.

I just don’t know how to handle this like I feel like I’m going to die from broken heart syndrome. I’m currently listening to the cd he made me with the stuffed bunny rabbit he got me

The last few weeks/months have been quite hard for us we have a disagreement nearly every week and I just want things to be better. I don’t want things to end and I don’t see why they should. We’re both still in love with each other, we really are, we’ve always been good with communication but the last few weeks have been very snappy. I think we both have issues that we need to work on such as my anxiety and his undiagnosed ADHD + our own image of ourselves/insecurities. I just need advice from those who have been through a rough patch with their partners and things HAVE got better in the end because I want this to work so so bad, we both do.

About 9 o’clock I had a massive sandwich, like a full loaf of sourdough bread with salami Parma ham cheese etc and it was honestly super delicious like I don’t even regret it. But I do regret eating nearly the full thing because I am STILL full up and it’s making me a bit anxious. I don’t feel sick essentially but I’m super duper full up still. Also recovering from a cold which has gave me multiple panic attacks this week so I’m still a little shaky. I don’t have a stomach ache or anything I’m honestly really tired but I don’t wanna fall asleep on a full stomach as much as it’s tempting. I just gotta know I’ll stop feeling full soon😭I also think another thing is that my boyfriend told me yesterday that he thought he was gonna be sick from eating so much when he was stoned the night before and I think that’s just stuck inside my head like the fact he ate so much he was gonna be sick and now IVE ate so much but like it’s the only thing I ate today apart from poptarts in the morning so like surely that doesn’t count as overeating, maybe in the moment yeah but that’s the only thing in my belly rn 😭

I just woke up after sleeping for like an hour and took a really bad panic attack. I kept swallowing saliva and it made me feel so much worse. Ive calmed down a little bit but im still really panicking. Waking up in the middle of the night just makes me think I’m gonna be sick. I did have the cold just there but it’s gone away now so I know it won’t be that, I’ve not ate much today because I’m still getting my appetite back so maybe I’m hungry? I thought maybe it was the two bites of my boyfriend’s sandwich I had before I fell asleep but he scoffed the whole thing so I’m sure I’m safe. I had like a weird feeling it my stomach not a pain but idk how to explain it but now I honestly just think I have trapped gas because I can genuinely hear it in my stomach. It just freaks me out though when I wake up randomly. I also think the only reason I woke up is because my boyfriend is sitting watching soul SO loud because he’s stoned and I felt bad for freaking out when he’s stoned cause idk how to act when someone’s stoned like will me freaking out make them freak out? He’s not done it in 2 years and it was his first time again but idk, he managed to get me to control my breathing though.

I didn’t know where else to ask but whenever I’m downloading an app it just gets stuck on install for a good few minutes before finally starting to download and finishes in a second? Is this normal and am I just impatient? I don’t remember it happening on my old Xbox 1 or even my partners Xbox series x
