Bella Ramsey said they had suffered “strong fear” of vomiting, which left them for months for more than a dozen months.
Appear in Louis Therooks Podcast This week, at last Stars reveal the battle Phobia (The intense fear of vomiting or seeing others vomiting) makes them see “everything outside” [as] threaten. ”
“The concept of having stomach problems or having norovirus is enough [to activate the phobia],” they explained. It was an all-encompassing fear. It was unpredictable…”
Bella said their homophobia became so intense around the age of 13 that they felt they were “can’t leave” the house”, adding: “The only safe place in the world is home and sometimes it isn’t safe when it comes to bacteria.”
Game of Thrones alumni say phobia put them in overfixion on the disease and “see germs.”
They claimed, “You go out… like you can see bacteria, it’s like a disease everywhere.” “Scary… it’s also going to affect me.”
Bella continued: “Say, if I’ve been in contact with people with norovirus, then over the next two weeks, it’s one thing that feels about me.
“Like, if I go out and the tube and then the symptoms come and I start to feel uncomfortable? Now I’m throwing it on the tube, how bad is that?”
Bella once said they were so shocked by their phobia that they thought they “would rather die than throw it away.”
They told the hosts that they sought help from phobia by reading a book called Thrive Program written by Rob Kelly. They shared that they no longer feel phobic, but admit that they still “respond to vomit more strongly than the average person” and “are more disgusted or afraid of it.”
