Crowds/Fear of Being Sick/Nausea

keptainicandozatt profile image

Recently (about a few months back),I've been feeling nauseous when it comes to being in crowds and even when I'm with my own friends.And worst thing is..I have a fear of being sick (e.g. throwing up in public).Lately,I'm even starting to dread being with my friends because I feel nauseous 90% of the time. To add on,I have motion sickness as well so the fear of throwing up triples whenever I travel by car (which I try to avoid these days).

I feel shortness of breath sometimes (that usually passes),but it's the nausea that I find difficult to deal with.It makes me dry heave a lot and it's really uncomfortable and affecting my daily life too :( No matter how little I eat,I'll feel nauseous after a meal..but this only happens when I'm outside. Should I go to the doctor or are there certain coping methods that I can try?

P.S. So glad I stumbled upon this site!
