Book Description

Emetophobia is one of the least known and most debilitating phobias. Ken Goodman has created an easy to follow, step-by-step program to help emetophobe and panic attacks sufferers transform their lives. Unfortunately, people don't make real change by learning new information. They change by living new experiences. The Emetophobia Manual lays out an experiential program that includes dozens of transformative exercises as well as QR codes enabling readers to watch videos on their smart phone. The tools and strategies in this program are based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which has been validated by research as the most effective treatment for anxiety. With eye-opening metaphors, powerful tools, and lighthearted humor, Goodman gets readers onto their feet and motivates them to take steps towards freedom. Otherwise, it's like reading a cookbook in bed. In the end, you have nothing to show for it.

Book Description

Emetophobia--the disproportionate fear of vomiting or being in the presence of someone vomiting--affects millions of people yet is seldom discussed. Part-memoir, part clinical history, Dara Lovitz provides a brutally honest account of her life as an emetophobe. Written with her therapist, Dr. David Yusko, her story unravels the mystery of emetophobia. Lovitz spent years trying traditional talk therapy and self-help books--nothing seemed to reduce her anxiety. In desperation, she tried the radical exposure therapy. With a therapist's guidance, she exposed herself to the thing she had avoided all her life. Within weeks she showed improvement and within months she had overcome emetophobia. The history of exposure therapy for treating emetophobes is covered.

Book Description

This story is a must read for any parent whose child is suffering from a specific phobia and is struggling through daily life. This is a true story about the journey that one mother endures while trying to save her daughter from a debilitating battle with a specific phobia and anxiety. Emetophobia, an irrational fear of vomit, is listed as one of the top five most common phobias. It receives little attention compared to other irrational fears; and trying to treat it can be quite difficult. With her daughter losing weight daily and refusing to even leave the house, she knew she needed more than weekly therapy to help her child. Exposure Therapy was their last hope for help. The only way to try and help her daughter was to make her face her greatest fear. In this second edition, the author continues the journey with her daughter's relapse and shares new insights into how they continue to overcome obstacles.
