Not sure about the hypnotist thing but i have another friend that gave up smoking after being hypnotised and in many respects that is harder.

Good luck

PS it cost them about 拢100 for the hypnotist

I tried hypnotherapy for this, and I'd like to say it worked, but it didn't! Problem is, it's not something you are ordinarily exposed to on a frequent basis, so no way of really knowing until it happens whether it's worked or not.

I spent several months in hospital year before last and was sick fairly regularly due to the nature of my condition. I must admit that although I never got to the stage where it didn't bother me at all, over a period of time, I think I definitely 'panicked' less with the more it happened. I also had to listen to a fair few people being sick as is to be expected in hospital, I guess, and the same applied, I was never exactly comfortable around it, but I think I did get a little used to it (still had to look away or hide under the sheets though!). There was one girl who I made particular friends with, as she was a similar age to me and we were bed neighbours for 2 weeks. The painkillers she was being given were making her feel yukky and one day she looked (and felt) particularly dreadful. She said she felt so very very sick and eventually she did actually throw up, although I physically couldn't get out of bed to help her, if I had been able to move, I'm sure I would have leapt over to grab a bowl or something for her, as every instinct wanted me to. Afterwards, when she was feeling better, I did think "ugggh" again, but at the time, I was just so concerned for her and felt sorry that she was feeling so obviously crap, that my instincts just took over and I wanted to help her!
