Rule out medical: conditions by seeing your doc first. Then consider stress management. See www.relaxationresponse.org for some self-help. Peace and good health. You MAY have developed a phobia about vomiting. You are now fearful of over-using a bodily process that is only necessary when we have toxins that need to be expelled.
