How do I get over a phobia without facing it?

I AM SUPER DUPER EXTREMELY SCARED TO FREAKING DEATH OF VOMIT!!! I’m scared of people who vomit people who think they are going to vomit I’m scared of vomit… well vomit in general. Like baby spit-up does not bother me but if a baby like shows me what it ate I will freak out… My motto is what goes down your throat should stay down your throat! Like in my school for example the stomach flu was going around so I was like a germo for like a month…LoL… I’m really not scared of anything else. It scares me to the point of running away and screaming and crying and once I was shaking so badly my mom thought I was having a seizure… So I really want to be a Neo-natal Intensive Care Unit Nurse but my mom said I will have to be an RN (registered nurse only) for a while which means I will have to deal woth vomit. So I do not want to do that RN thing. How do I rid my phobia without facing it like without being around it? I really want to know!!! So please help me and can anyone say they have the same phobia? I’ve had it since I was like 4 1/2 and it was REALLY bad then it’s gotten a little better but not a lot like when I was 4 I couldn’t even stand vomiting when I was the one commiting the crime! So please help me!!!

Well I guess there really isn’t much of a cure for phobias without actually facing them. But I also used to be afraid of vomit(ing).(not super afraid though) but then my mom made me think it’s not so bad cause after your done vomiting, you feel relaxed and you feel like there’s a load off of you and you can just relax. Of coarse if I vomit I feel shaken and yucky but really if you think about it, it’s not so bad. sure the worst part is that it tastes and looks absolutely revolting , and feels terrible coming up, but it’s releasing all bad fluids in your body which makes you feel good.

I hope I made you feel a bit better. :)
