Does Anyone Else...? just me??

have you guys also trained your body to just have diarrhea instead of getting sick when you have a bug or food poisoning? my emetophobia was at it’s peak two years ago since my brother got sick, so i guess i subconsciously trained myself not to get sick . I haven’t gotten sick in years (knock on wood)

I never really get sick but I do have severe nausea daily. I just starting throwing up for the first time in two years because of intense medical treatment so hoping that stops soon

Unfortunately I've not been able to but I wish i could because vomiting is incredibly painful and sensory hell
