Emetophobia:
A fear of vomit/vomiting.
A fear of; seeing someone vomit and/or vomiting yourself.
Hi, My name's Kara Overton.
I'm starting this petition so I can hopefully get a couple hundred people to sign this petition so I can start a campaign and awareness about it.
Now, a fear of vomit/vomiting may not seem like a big deal, but just like any phobia, (that you may have) you'd know that if severe enough you would rather kill yourself/die than have to face your fear.
A lot of kids/adults die every year from suicide and 30% of these suicides are from depression/anxiety/fears etc.
And from every emetophobia sufferer I have met and spoken to, 90% of them have attempted suicide and/or have thought "I would rather die than have to vomit"
I have suffered from Emetophobia for almost 7 years.
One woman I have spoken to has had Emetophobia for a gruling 40+ years.
I have spoken to men, women, teenagers all over the world who suffer with this, and I thought it was about time to not only help myself but to help others.
I and many others who suffer from this phobia have the effects of severe anxiety/panick attacks, depression, severe nausea, etc.
I suffer from severe nausea 24/7 and have for almost 7 years.
They say that the fear comes from a past traumatic expierience with vomit in some way, whether it being something you have expierienced yourself or seen someone else go through.
I have been through hypnotherapy and found out that my anxiety/fear started from when I was in my mothers womb.
She had a bad sickness happen whilst I was in her womb which triggered my anxiety which then later on the Emetophobia kicked in.
Now i'm not here to make this all about me.
But this is a really horrible thing to go through.
As well as anyone with Anxiety/depression/a phobia.
So please Sign this petition, it will only take 2 seconds! then share amongst your friends and family so I can get this ball rolling and help all Emetophobes/anxiety/depression/panick attack sufferers know they aren't alone and to make themselves feel better.

I have severe anxiety and nausea as a result of being emetophobic and it's shocking to know that people are suffering with it without the knowledge that there are people who can help. The fact that it is 'common' should be a clear indication that more needs to be done.
