Must-see video diaries...

Here at Emetophobia-free, we have many testimonial reviews, both written and recorded testimonies, left by happy, thriving people who have recovered from emetophobia after completing our programme.

Occasionally however, some emetophobes offer to record their journey from full-blown symptom to being emetophobia-free in order to not only catalogue the process but to also inspire other newcomers to the programme.

Here you can see a small selection of these video diaries, each one a personal, honest account of the journey to being emetophobia-free...

Heather...

Meet Heather. Before starting the programme, Heather's quality of life was very poor. She avoided doing normal everyday things that might make her sick or expose her to vomit (emetophobia) and it particularly challenged her love of horse riding, to the point where was getting panic attacks when transporting her horse anywhere.

Living on a farm and with her whole life revolving around livestock, it was a massive blow when she couldn't enjoy her beloved horse riding anymore. Following a breakdown, Heather's condition worsened and she couldn't even leave the house without suffering extreme anxiety or panic attacks. Even going in a car was challlenging. During this time she was on valium, xanex, anti-nausea medication and various other pills.

Eventually she stopped eating solid food altogether and she lost nearly 40 pounds in a few months, taking time off a new job or working form home. She tried seeing specialists including neurologists but they couldn't find anything wrong. But, as she was to find out, the condition was one she'd created in her mind, meaning she could also be the one to cure herself.

Eventually, she stumbled across The Thrive Programme's Cure your Emetphobia & Thrive book and it changed her life. After studying for a few weeks, Heather made huge progress as she learned how her phobia worked through following the exercises carefully. Heather tells it in her own words below.

Jenni...

Jenni, who lives in Thailand, spent 19 years suffering from emetophobia. As with many emetophobes, Jenni developed her fear of vomit/sick very early in life and carried it through to adulthood, all the time restricting what she did and ate in a bid to manage her phobia.

She ended up missing out on lots of experiences that she might have otherwise enjoyed, school field trips for example. Social anxiety was also a bit issue for Jenni as she worried about being ill or encountering vomit in every situation - for example, she had to know exactly where the toilets were every time she went out, in-case she needed to be sick. She would constantly worry about being sick in public, but it hardly ever happened.

After researching various treatment options online, Jenni came across The Thrive Programme's Cure Your Emetophobia & Thrive - a programme devised by Rob Kelly over ten years ago. It's not CBT or therapy, but an educational programme that helps people address challenges in their life and overcome phobias, addictions and other issues.

In essence, it helps people Thrive and live the life they've always wanted. After completing the six-week course with a trained Thrive Programme Coach, Jenni is now living the life she's always wanted and is planning holidays, social events and even a mountain climbing trip, something she never would have done before the course. "I'm a totally different person now, compared to how I was before. The Thrive Programme has turned everything around for me and I'm so happy I did it," said an elated Jenni.
