Welcome to the Anxiety Forum - A Home for Those with Anxiety, Fear, or Panic Attacks.
I have horrible emetophobia. I thought I had it under control, but it's getting bad again.
Its a combo of social phobia (I've always had), and the agoraphobia now. For years I didn't want to admit it to myself, but there is denying it now, Its taken control of my life. I used to always go out at least once a day (even just to do something mundane), but over the last year, I've come up with the excuses for not needed a reason to go out. I always say, its too cold / too dark / too sunny LOL....
I don't know if this is something that can be treated now since I've allowed it to get this out of control, but I'm hoping something will change, because I find myself not leaving the house now for weeks.
Not good since I was once "chipper fella" with a real life besides the pretend one in my head.

Health - mainly related to heart and cancers. Is that a thing with a name?

my biggest phobia is to faint infront of people in public. My biggest fear and only, i don't know why, but thats my fear.
Emetophobia.
Actually going to the hospital to have an operation for a problem that really exists.
I hope the show turns out to be enjoyable gypsy.

The big 3 as I call them, heart attack, stroke and cancer, not necessarily in that order.
Health related anxiety.
I had so many new fears when I first had anxiety, but I'll say the main ones:
Hypochondria (health anxiety),
fear of my parents dying,
fear of myself dying,
fear of never recovering from anxiety
and fear of natural disasters.
