Emetophobia

In the past year or so I have had many medical problems that require I take multiple medications and vitamins.
I have thrown up a few times and fainted once since taking the medicine- and lately all I have been able to think about is barfing.
This is a large setback at school because I become fidgety and dizzy, and I call home most days. I usually ask to go to the bathroom and feel a bit better, but the second I come back to class it's like I'm scared for my life.
I am crazy skinny and even when I'm hungry I become nauseous.
I'm even in a prestigious school that expects a lot from me, but I've been so afraid I want to try homeschooling.
