How I Freed Myself from Living in my Bathroom

Host: Anna Christie, Psychotherapist and Emetophobia SpecialistAnna Interviews: former emetophobic Lisa Lopez from Chicago, USA. Trigger Warnings: The word "vomit" is written once (below) and spoken a couple of times by me, but mainly Lisa just says "was sick" and doesn't really tell any stories at all about sickness. We were first supposed to be talking about emetophobia and relationships but as I interviewed Lisa her amazing story came out. She was so terrified of vomiting at one point that she was sleeping in her bathroom and never went out of her house. Now she is married, has a career and can do just about anything. I was blown away by the courage and strength of this young woman who used meditation inspired by Guru Raphael Zernoff as a way to begin her journey out of emetophobia.
