So basically, whenever I get anxious, I don’t even feel nauseous, I just gag. I do other things too, mainly to prevent me from gagging, such as weird mouth/ tongue movements to try and prevent/ delay the gagging, but most of the time it wins over me. I’ve been having this specific symptom since around 1st grade. Once I got to high school, the anxiety faded a little. However, for no reason, about halfway through my senior year, it hit me like a freight train. It wasn’t uncommon for me to throw up in the bathroom twice a day, multiple days a week. Even to this day, having graduated high school, I still experience this quite often, depending on the situation. Most kinds of social gatherings, with the exception of my extremely tight-knit friend group, make me anxious. Sometimes I feel it at random. I have never gone to a therapist/ psychiatrist, mainly because of my plans to join the military after I finish trade school. But, I know that if I do enlist, I will feel these anxious feelings throughout the entire MEPs/ bootcamp, which worries me, and a lot of the time, I get anxious just thinking about it.
