my boss/friend gets the barfy nausea kind of anxiety so i took all the alcohol pads from the first aid kit and put them next to the register so she could grab one open it and sniff it whenever she starts getting nauseous since that helps it

i’m also extremely emetophobic (fear of vomit) so it is also my little way of making sure she doesn’t do it in front of me 😭 mostly cuz i want her to feel better tho

i have the same and i have a few notes- alcohol pads may work short term but huffing alcohol to stave off nausea is not a good solution. i’d recommend something like a sachet of lavender, some dramamine/zofran if she can get a prescription, and an emesis bag. this will keep things contained + knowing you have something to barf into actually takes away a good portion of the fear

dramamine is for if she can’t get the prescription for zofran, but she should be able to pretty easily.
