The Nighttime Scaries | Emetophobia Recovery

Welcome to Handle Emetophobia — a podcast about recovery, anxiety, OCD, and learning how to live without being ruled by fear.In this episode, we talk about the “Sunday Scaries,” the "Nighttime Scaries" (nighttime anxiety because of emetophobia), why anticipation often feels worse than reality, and community being a crucial component to recovery. We explore how fear builds, how safety behaviors keep us stuck, and why acceptance is one of the most important tools in recovery.We also break down a simple but powerful idea:you can’t eliminate discomfort from life—but you can learn to handle it.If you’ve ever felt trapped by emetophobia or anxiety, this conversation is for you.You don’t have to do this alone.Working towards recovery and want COMMUNITY?Check out the HANDLE Community: handle.mn.coNeed recovery resources?https://www.handleemetophobia.comYour Anxiety Toolkit with Kimberley Quinlan:https://www.youtube.com/@youranxietytoolkitFearCast Podcast with Kevin Foss:https://www.youtube.com/@fearcastpodcast700
