Sometimes I eat something that doesn't agree with me and puke on purpose because I'm nauseous and it feels better afterward. I'm annoyed that I have to sneak around to do it because if I don't, people think I have an eating disorder and body image issues when all I have is an irritated stomach.

That makes sense? I mean, your body is unhappy because of the contents of your stomach, so you empty your stomach. That's perfectly logical?
I'd only worry if you seemed to be doing it, like, more than once a month or something. Then it would be like, how the heck are you finding all this bad food??

Oh god, tell me about it.

I have this weird issue where I can't burp. I've just never been able to. It's a thing. So after I eat a meal, I inevitably get a gassy stomach, but the only way I can feel better is by forcing myself to gag (not even throw up, just gag). But I don't feel comfortable with making myself gag at work, or in a public bathroom, because I don't want people assuming I'm bulimic. So I end up being uncomfortable a lot.

Have you ever tried this product called Beano? It's an anti-gas thing you take before a meal, and it works very, very well.

No, I've never heard of that. I'll definitely give it a try though, because man if it works that would be great.

Apparently there is actually a procedure to treat my problem. You get a botox injection in your throat. But it seems complicated to pursue and unlikely to be covered. So if Beano works, I think I'll stick with that. :)

Yurk. Botox. That stuff is horrifying.

I hope it works!

I get that - better out than in does apply sometimes.

Just so you're being careful not to hurt your esophagus and teeth with the motion and the acid. Always brush after, etc.

Do you think there's an underlying cause to your nausea? Is it random food or a set of specific things? Like - always greasy, or always high sugar or something?

AYRT Usually it's food that's too rich. Grease, oil, dense baked goods or dairy products... I try to avoid them, but sometimes something is more greasy than it seemed, you know?

Yeah, i get that. I used to have the same reaction to a lot of foods, too. Then I found out I a) had Crohn's and b) had gallstones. So.

Might want to talk to your GP next time you're in - there could be an issue going on you can fix.
