I'm having trouble consuming food without feeling nauseated and i have trouble swallowing foods liquids and tablets. i have emetophobia and was sick. ?

A serious condition: Emetophobia -fear of vomiting- is a debilitating phobia that causes intense anxiety and suffering. The first thing you need is to be in therapy with a compassionate, cognitive behavioral therapist who can tolerate discussing and exploring all aspects of your horror of vomiting so that the two of you can begin to desensitize these fears. Be clear in seeking a doctor, what you are struggling with!
