Pages placed by emetophobia sufferers:
http://emetophobia.bravepages.com - This is an EXCELLENT site with a list of Frequently Asked Questions about Emetophobia. Worth reading by all sufferers and friends and/or relatives of emetophobes. It's quite enlightening - and you'll probably recognise yourself in some of the scenarios! (The site was previously at http://www.fortunecity.com/greenfield/dwellers/790/emetophobia.html but there have been difficulties with the web host and it might not always be there!)
Emetophobia information in Norwegian and English at : http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/1920/
The International Emetophobia Society: http://www.emetophobia.co.uk - this site is temporarily unavailable. When Gut Reaction last visited it, it was noticed that quite a lot of information had been directly lifted from this site (without my permission) and some of the scenarios outlined were those relating to myself!
http://www.emetonline.co.uk/ - an excellent emetophobia website written by a couple with experience of emetophobia. Highly recommended site.

ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES
www.freeyourmind.info - 'Emotional Freedom Technique, an alternative therapy. This may help emotional, psychological and psychosomatic problems.
www.emofree.com - Emotional Freedom Technique, a therapy based around the idea that "all emotions are caused by an imbalance in the body's energy system" and that by balancing the energy system as you think about the problem, then the emotion simply cannot happen. It can also be done over the phone, which is great for anyone with agoraphobia!
