Psychological vomiting is a disorder where a person encounters a situation that, for any reason, forces him/her to vomit. It could literally be for any reason. The encounter creates a psychological anchor in the person and whenever a similar situation arises, the person feels the uncontrollable urge to vomit again. The examples I could give would range from absurd to completely understandable. Here's the most common example that most people fall under.

When you legitimately feel ill and need to vomit, you'll inevitably find yourself sitting in the bathroom with your face in the toilet, waiting to throw up. That musty, pissy, mildewy smell can be quite potent. It fills your nose and mouth, making your throat feel thick as your glands begin to swell right befor..... BAARFFF!

After that happens a few times, some people only have to feel a little ill, go into the bathroom and hang their head in the toilet. The sensation, the smell, the visual of the porcelin surrounding their face is all that's needed to puke again.

This is how an anchor is formed in your subconscious and how it becomes more and more firmly rooted there.

Some people's anchors are about many different things. My daughter used to gag on her own saliva when she cried as a toddler, making her throw up. As a fourteen year old with much better swallowing control, she still becomes ill about a third of the time when she cries.

Other people throw up after eating a large meal, not because they want to, but because of a time that they gorged themselves and threw up involuntarily. That moment becomes an anchor for them and they'll throw up whenever they eat too much, even though they would not normally throw up if they hadn't had the previous experience.

People with emotional development disorders, autism, and many other neurological disorders create these anchors even easier than others. They can vomit out of the clear blue sky without any sign of coming illness.

Another common example would be people who throw up when they see blood or dead bodies or signs of extreme violence.

Pia, The white discharge is normal since the vagina is like a self cleaning oven, if the discharge turns colors or doesn't smell right then it could be a infection but what you describe is normal. The cysts are probably the cause of your irregular bleeding way too much and could become Anemic sometimes going on the pill even if ur not sexually active will regulate your periods but if you don't have time to see a Doctor then the cysts will continue to grow and cause problems and the white discharge is normal try panty liners to protect ur undies. Good Luck Rita
