Common Questions and Answers about Social anxiety vomit
anxiety
I would recommend counseling to help you deal with your anxiety. It's common to have a sick stomach when you have anxiety because of excess stomach acid. Ask your Dr if it's safe for you to take something for this before and during your pregnancy.
Hi everybody. I have suffered from SEVERE emetophobia and social anxiety for about four years now. My biggest fear is vomiting and/or having a panic attack in front of my friends or people that know me. In the beginning, I used to be able to "control" my vomiting, I just felt nauseous and anxious when being social, but now it is at the point where every time I do something social I will vomit. I have been on 100 mg of Pristiq for almost 6 months now, and it has helped somewhat.
I suspect what you are seeing is anxiety - probably social anxiety. I might suggest that you google the phrase "children and anxiety" or "social anxiety in children" to see if these descriptions remind you of your son. If so, then you should discuss this issue with your son's pediatrician or family doctor. By the way, if anxiety is the issue, your son will not outgrow it nor will it go away. Please write if you think that I might be able to help.
Before I get into this, let me say that I have had social phobia, GAD (generalized anxiety disorder), and depression all my life. But this only started in 2014. I'm currently 21 years old.
So this began to happen July of 2014. After living in this apartment for about 9 years we were getting evicted, which meant that we had to get rid of our three cats that we had had for closer to 10 years. One of the cats was /my/ cat that I loved very much and I still get a bit weepy thinking about her.
Not sure why you wouldn't be eager to see a therapist. It would give you someone not close to you to talk to who is a professional and can offer some insight and help. As to the label of what you have, while it sounds like depression started first and now it's shifting to also be an anxiety problem, a professional will be better able to help with this than us. I would see a psychologist, not someone like a licensed social worker.
So I've just recently become open with my social anxiety. I remember being in middle school and thinking that something was horribly wrong with me. I would get so nervouse around people. My body would tremble, my voice would shake and I couldn't think clearly. I've become more comfortable with being uncomfortable, and yes I do notice that there are plenty of people that are shy, but I really hate the fact that my real personality can't show when I'm around people.
Anyone else get social anxiety in big groups? I have always been an anxious person in general but i have always Been able to manage it and show up to group events. I have noticed now though the farther along i get the more anxious i get and the more i get the overwhelming urge to bolt from events. Its getting bad too. Any one else or any ideas?
Yes, it does sound like social anxiety. Have you thought about getting in to counseling to help with this?
I have a presentation coming up next week, so I decided to go and seek medical help today. I went to my doctor and he diagnosed me with social anxiety. He said that the best treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy, but he prescribed me some medication to get me through this semester. He prescribed 10 mg propranolol (inderal) 3 times a day and an extra 10 mg inderal 1 hour before the presentation + 0.25 mg Xanax 1 hour before the presentation.
I know, when you feel the anxiety, it leads to more anxiety because you are anxious they will notice your anxiety... Higher heart rate, blood pressure, chest pains, wish to immediately leave the place... And to me, it seems better to leave home at night or when it is colder or rainy, because there are less people out there, on the street... You are not alone!
I would also have to agree that counseling can really help with social anxiety. First of all, don't feel ashamed or embarrased about it because many people suffer from this in my opinion. In my experience, counseling can she some light on why you are feeling anxious, make it less confusing, and gvie you as step by step approach to confront it.
have a time limit. I know that if she had my social anxiety or whatever my problem is, I would leave with her once she reached her limit. But my wife won't do it. And it ticks me off. Then I get angrier inside, and I withdraw even more. Many times, I take 2 or 3 trips to the bathroom just to get 5 minutes to myself for some peace and quiet. By the end of the night, I'm exhausted, mentally and physically. She doesn't understand how emotionally draining it is to socialize.
Yes you do have social anxiety. I have had it for years and now it has turned into agoraphobia. I also have panic attacks. I am not saying all this could happen to you but just be aware of these things.
Have you seen a therapist? I stay secluded to my home but my therapist is trying to help me with these issues. I take xanax for the panic attacks and anxiety. But they do have different meds.
I suggest you go to a mental health facility in your area. They can be quite helpful.
So I have endured Social Anxiety all my life. Along with Depression, these two make a great pair!
My question is this. How does one go about getting a job, going back to school, buying a car, etc, when you don't have money, because you can't get a job because you can't be around people (social anxiety)? This *****. It's really a nasty circle.
If you find the answer to this question, let me know. Iam the exact same way. People seem to think i am stuck-up, or a b tch. My husband is the only one that gets me. One thing I have learned, when i do talk to people, i try to talk enough to bring up my shyness and it seems after that they know im not stuck-up and they reach out more. I dont take it anymore but when i was on lexapro, i was more confident with who i was and was able to talk more to people.
However, sometimes those symptoms described above make me think or fear that I may actually vomit, but it is not a fear of vomit that causes those symptoms. These symptoms mostly occur when I have to eat lunch or dinner around people. They almost never occur at a breakfast meal. The symptoms can become real intense especially if I have to eat around people that I never have before. Also, sometimes the symptoms do not even occur.
I get the sudden urge to vomit, it happens randomly, with and without full stomach. When that happens, I’m confident that I won’t vomit but my stomach forces me to do so, my mouth gets filled with saliva which I have to swallow repeatedly. My conscious mind acts abnormally, thoughts which make no sense (as if in a dream) pops up in my brain. The thoughts are similar everytime it occurs.
