So I know it's going to sound silly, but the other night I had this dream that my sister got the stomach flu and while that was happening I was completely distraught, and my mom was calling up the hospital because I had to go there because I couldn't take it. Then I woke up.
Then last night I had another dream where my grandma never died, and they all lied to me about it and my grandma was back in the hospice, but healthy and walking around like completely normal and she told me that it was okay for me to use her Ipad (well, all of us). Then I was asking my sister if she had the flu and she never answered me and completely bypassed the question. Then I woke up again, and now I'm terrified that she's going to get the stomach flu because she doesn't really wash her hands and she touches her face and all that... I'm like totally convinced in my mind something bad is going to happen and I'm honestly going to HAVE to go to the hospital until it would be over because I will **** myself if that sickness ever came over in our house, I am THAT terrified of throwing up and getting sick.

This doesn't sound at all silly in view of what you've revealed about emetophobia and your concern about germs. Your mind is working overtime, and it's no surprise it should surface in your dreams.

Has anything or technique worked for you to blunt the fears? Dealing with such while dealing with depression makes everything more difficult.

I told my therapist, and ever since then this fear has skyrocketed out of control. My whole family hates me for it because it's all I ever talk about. "I just ate that and I'm nervous" "God I'm so nervous I can't even see straight". Even right NOW I feel like crap because I ate when I shouldn't have and my sister said that I was psychotic, and my mom says I'm never moving forward... Like SHE'S all about moving forward... Smh.
