My #1 biggest fear is throwing up. I always thought I was really wierd for this, but apparently there is a large population of people that are emetophobic.

Emetophobia

Good one. I never though of this is a phobia, but I feel this way too. When I read this, I thought "holy crap, this is me"

[ QUOTE ]
Most emetophobics claim they can will themselves to avoid vomiting, and a survey of an Internet group of emetophobics found that the average member had last vomited at least twelve years earlier. On average, it is suggested that most emetophobics have been sick five or fewer times in their lives.

Last time I puked was from a case of food poisoning more than 20 years ago, and I feel like I can keep myself from vomiting no matter how sick I may feel. I am Supernopukeman.
