Things You Need To Know About Emetophobia (Fear Of Vomiting) Fact 3

Many emetophobics are misdiagnosed by the medical personnel treating them. This can create a lot of confusion and frustration for the patients.

Sufferers of this nasty phobia often have a lot of issues around food. They are nearly always terrified of eating chicken, for example, as they believe that it’s notorious for harbouring unhealthy bugs. Emetophobes will also often refuse to eat out at restaurants, cafes, food courts, friend’s houses… and so on. This is because they have no control over the preparation of the food. They can very picky around food, even at home, and this can lead to doctors misdiagnosing them with an eating disorder such as anorexia.
