    Hiccups

    I have the hiccups and I feel like every 4 seconds my brain is slamming against my skull then bouncing around in my throat. :D

    What is your crazy solution for hiccups?
    Do you ride it out or do you try to hold your breath?

    I used to eat a teaspoon of sugar. It seemed to work for whatever reason.
    Nowadays, I just ride it out and it sucks.

    Holding breath or downing as much of a large glass of water as possible without breathing.

    When I get the hiccups, I say the word 'hiccup' and the hiccups stop

    the difficulty with hiccups is the trick to fixing them doesn't work once you learn it, it can only be done easily by another person, although it technically can be done to yourself after knowing

    let me explain

    the trick is to get your throat in a state of waiting, not necessarily taking a deep breath and holding it, but.. waiting

    for example I find the best way to cure them for someone else is to make them do something stupid or embarassing for 15 seconds, the simplest thing, like holding a hand on top of their head -- they'll be waiting for you to let them stop and also wondering wtf this is supposed to do


    a hit or miss trick is to tell someone to hiccup, "Come on, do it. Hiccup. You don't even have the hiccups do you? I don't hear any, well? Go. Anytime now." etc. They'll protest and insist they had them a moment ago, but it's this 'waiting' state of the throat muscles that does the trick (so long as they don't hiccup immediately after you tell them to, this dispels the 'trick' and they won't be waiting)


    tl;dr - don't hold your breath -- just don't breath for 15 seconds, try to feel as though you're waiting for something to happen

    not gonna lie, I was a little impressed with myself when I figured the cure for hiccups on my own by seeing what worked

    then a little nonplussed when the psychological tricks didn't work as easily on me since I knew the 'trick' lol

    Hold your breath for as long as you can. I find it helps to do it in a pool or large body of water. Use ankle weights or concrete block if you have trouble staying under.

    Shit this looks like it might work. I will try this. I know I hate being spooked so the scare me thing would just make me irate lol so I tell my man not to do that. But yours sounds more like distraction than scare. I do the wanting for something to happen when I orgasm, can't cum unless I hold my breath lmao!! man I always end up on sex.


    It seems like the most prevalent suggestion is hold breath or some kind of breath control.

    @Shiro, my man uses the sugar thing but he likes it. I have pet peeve about grains of sugar on my teeth so I am a wuss and won't try it.

    I think I remember there being no scientific explanation for hiccups.

    no no, not unnerving. people freak the fuck out, they sob and run. a lot of things make me uncomfortable but i don't think i have any phobias on that level.
