Teaching with Emetophobia: How Two Teachers Overcame Their Fear
Experienced teacher’s Claire and Michelle, talk openly about their own journeys through and over Emetophobia and the impact it had on their individual teaching careers.
Claire's story: Claire currently teaches children aged between 14-18 and struggled with Emetophobia for 33 years. Claire's main fear was other people/children being sick. After reading a lot of misinformation on the internet, Claire thought she was stuck with her fear forever but found The Thrive Programme's Emetophobia-Free manual online and decided to give it a go. Once she fully committed to overcoming her fear, Claire was able to overcome her fear in just 8 weeks!
Michelle's story: Michelle taught children between the ages of 4 and 11 for over a decade and suffered throughout her teaching career with Emetophobia that lasted for over 20 years. In contrast to Claire, Michelle's main fear was being sick herself. After trying lots of different therapies and interventions, Michelle was able to finally overcame her fear while still teaching in a primary school.

------------------------
Emetophobia is the fear of vomiting/sickness: either yourself, other people, or both. Research suggests 0.1 to 8.8% percent of the population have a fear of being sick (Hout & Bouman, 2011). Emetophobia is a debilitating phobia, which significantly impacts your life: sufferers are chronically anxious and go to great lengths to avoid encountering anything sickness-related, which provides temporary relief but often results in a rollercoaster of anxiety, fear and exhaustion. Issues associated with emetophobia include: OCD, eating difficulties, anxiety-related gastric problems, phagophobia, tocophobia and more. Our goal is to raise awareness of this severe phobia and provide a solution for sufferers and their families.
You do not need to live with Emetophobia - you can COMPLETELY overcome it.
