Hey all, I'm fifteen years old and I've been getting very nauseated towards night time. It all started in my six week school holidays here in Australia, just as I was about to go into year 10 I fell asleep one night at 6:00pm (four hours earlier than normal) I woke up two hours later feeling very nauseous and started to freak out as I believe I have emetophobia. I started pacing my kitchen holding a cold drink of water hoping that it would wear off and stop. I didn't call for anyone because calling for someone to help would make me panic a little. So I stayed quiet, It was moderately warm inside which wasn't helping much, I opened my backdoor and sat down drinking this cold water sips at a time shaking violently to the point I couldn't stop my drink from spilling. It lasted about 10 minutes before I calmed down. It helped me calm down knowing that if I'd been nauseous this long I should've vomited already. Long after I went back to sleep and put a movie on to help me take my mind off it.
It's been six or so months since then and this hasn't stopped. I have adjusted to it and become used to it, but that's not good enough. I still stress going to the movies, going to a mates house, going to school etc. I get a bit emotional these days because it's ruined my grades for school. I've been to the doctors five times, had a blood test, a urine test and I've had an ultrasound on my pancreas. I've appeared to be healthy among all of these. I can't seem to sleep when I should be because if i'm not that tired then it gives my mind time to think, with time to think in bed I think about being nauseous as it's obviously been a common occurrence. I don't get enough sleep this way and so i'm left with my body not functioning properly which I believe means that my digestion is affected, it loops like this and there's nothing I can about it.
My father and I have looked into sleeping medication but he's worried that it could lead to having one a night my entire life. I had this problem two years ago, but it wasn't as bad and I didn't really think about it much then, it wore off over time. The worst part of my day is when the sun is going down, my dad doesn't get home from work till at least 8:00pm every night which is discomforting for me as I generally feel more relaxed when he's around. I've tried putting a movie on when I need to sleep to take my mind off it and this leads to me not having a proper nights rest, making me feel groggy throughout the whole next day. I've tried laying off heavy foods to ease my digestion, this hasn't helped either. I'm running through multiple choices that aren't helping and it's starting to scare me a little.
Things have been rough lately due to this illness of mine so I was wondering if anyone has a solution for me. I don't believe medication will get me out of this thing. If you have any life-style questions that could be affecting me, please respond and let me know. Until then I wish the rest of you the best of luck sorting your illness(s) too. :) Sebastian,
Iv never been able to burp for 20 year now I'm 21 and been getting theses burps but every one says I'm burping in side instead of out I can't do out and I have a lot of growls in my throat
But never heart burn
Do you have this
Currently up at 2.30am feeling nauseous as always and I came across this post whilst Google searching my symptoms. In a weird kind of way, reading the comments gives me some sort of comfort knowing im not the only one suffering. Boil some water with a handful of fresh mint leaves and a few cardamom pods (open from the top) and a spoonful of honey once the water has boiled- it has an instant effect on me, I hope it will help you guys as well
