So I've spent the last few days
dry heaving and not bringing anything up. Due to my Emetophobia, I haven't puked since I was 19 - so 16 years - or even come close.
It wasn't that bad. (Well, apart from the panic attacks while I'm sat in a bathtub of cold water, fully clothed, heaving over the toilet)
Don't get me wrong, I don't think I've fully overcome the emet, but I think now I can handle it better if/when it does happen. This pleases me immensely.
I'm also proud that I actually ate today, because last time I was like this (8 years ago) I checked myself into the local loony bin for 3 days as I couldn't deal with it and ate nothing but toast or soup for 6 months. Tonight I nommed on baked chicken and veggies and some mashed potatoes.

Yeah, I think I've come a long way.

*proud smugness*
