Rocket: something about food shopping is super calming to me. I am happiest at a grocery store, no matter how busy. How can you be stressed when you're surrounded by ALL THE FOOD?

I have emetophobia. Supermarkets carry a high risk of someone being ill and then making me ill :( I usually go when it's really quiet but don't have that option at the moment.

Cloths shopping is different though. I love cloths shopping and act like an excited child trying stuff on.

Look on my Posts, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away
I finally went through a box I meant to sort through over a year ago and found 2 new pairs of shoes still in the box in the sort box. It's like Christmas! But seriously how the hell did I forget I ordered 2 pairs of shoes??

Really? A doctor's office or hospital I could understand but I've honestly never seen anyone vomit in a grocery or would considered it a "high risk" for that (any more than any other kind of store). :confused:

This is me when I go to Whole Foods. But I went today and only got three different types of cider and string cheese (tho right now I'm regretting I didn't get the cinnamon popcorn they had samples of). A Trader Joes just opened up in town and I'm terrified to go in 'cause I hear they have all sorts of amazing stuff I'll squander $$ on.

Aren't horses pretty much just big vegetarian dogs anyway? I don't really see how you can like one and not the other.

That's part of why you feel so powerful when you're riding one. The horse could really kill you at any time, but instead it defers to you. Big trip.

this is why I feel uncomfortable around some dogs too I guess, I get worried about things that have the capacity to murder me if they get startled

Well, again... with a horse, you have an animal up to a ton, but you can communicate with it and it wants to please you. It makes you feel like your input is important. That's why I like horses, always feels like teamwork to do something special. :3:

I feel you. There used to be a Blockbuster that had the magic power to make me feel sick every time I walked in.

I have misophonia but the only public places I really avoid now are Mexican restaurants. So many chips all crunching.

So wait are you afraid of just getting sick in general? Because emetophobia is specifically a phobia of vomiting. Or is it more like "I might catch something that will make me vomit?"

Sorry, just curious.

I used to have emetophobia, as well as IBS and frequent panic attacks. At its worst it was taking me like three goes to make it in and out of the supermarket with my brown rice and frozen veg ("safe" food). I cured it by learning to drink at age 26.

Yep, if someone is ill I instantly assume it is a stomach bug that includes the dreaded V. If there is talk of one of those 48 hour V bugs going round I won't leave the flat.

I use to work in a grocery store and we had to clean up vomit at least once a day. So I understand. But as a long time ocean fisherman and bartender I got the fine art of puking down to a science. The smell still bothers me but the routine is easy.

Oh god I think I've started a Christmas Eve argument on the town swap'n'shop page on facebarp. Some stupid lady put up a post wanting to get her chihuahua boned by any old random male chihuahua for backyard puppies and I all posted like four links about backyard breeders and why that is a poo poo idea. I'm like the fyad of Facebook on that page and no good advice ever goes un-shrieked-about.
