my most remembered experience

[roxy]

I have suffered from Emetophobia since i can remember..


and i remember all my experiences in it...


i wont go through them all...


one i remember was when i was 15...it was my mates 14th bday...


we went to a feild far from home with a few other mates and her brother and his mates...


they where all drinking and having a laugh...i didnt have any...altho i have drunk alcohol before then...


there was one boy...one of her brothers friends and he was downing it...fast...drinkin bottle after bottle, can after can,


and then...he made himself sick...


i was stood right near him...i saw it, heard it, smelt it.


i screamed...i cryed...and i ran as fast as i could untill i cudnt run anymore.


my friend followed me...but she couldnt keep up...i dont think ive ever ran so fast in my life..


when my friend finaly caught up with me...she asked me what was rong...even tho she knew dam well what was wrong...


Then up comes this lad...he said sorry...but i was so frightened and scared i didnt want him any where near me..


tears still streaming down my face...


That experience put me off alcohol...i never drink now...not that i ever really did...i dont like it, the taste.


I hate drunk people...i even hate going anywhere where people are drinking...


I know that it was only that one boy who was sick...and that he made himself sick...


but seeing people drink infront of me just brings it all back..


brings that feeling bak...and i panic...i start thinking that they are goin to be sick...that they are gonna make themselfs sick..


people think im not normal for not drinking...but i dont need alcohol to have a good time...they dont know how scared i get...


That one out of many experiences stays in my mind...haunts me...i wish it would leave...

I undestand that you are haunted by this memory, but, think of the positive side of it, you don't drink. You will never ever v* because you drank to much. That's a good thing. You will never experience a hang over either. Those are 2 nasty side effects to drinking that you thankfully will never experience. Just remember, if you are around people who are drinking to much, and if they should happen to get sick, just understand that it's because they drank to much, not because of a sv and that you will not be able to "catch" the v* bug. It was a powerful experience you went through, and although the images are scary, it gave you a greater benefit.

Yeah I agree with what Babygap said. I also have a fear of people drinking...every once in a while I'll have a beer (Just one beer and that's it). A friend of mine has friends who like to get drunk and whenever he's like driving them anywhere and wants me to tag along I'm always like "Are they going to puke?" So I understand how you feel. If you don't drink GOOD FOR YOU...you really aren't missing out on anything!
