Do you get motion sick?

[Foxhound5366]

I misread that. I was going to say "Have you tried their eggs??"

ROFL my bad, the medicine is called Stugeron. Although frankly eating fish eggs is probably gonna do as much for curing motion sickness, if you are anything like me.

Other: none of the above, but merely stepping inside a hospital ward gets me green around the gills double quick

sometimes I can suppress it, and I do try for the sake of whoever has been admitted that I'm trying to pay a visit to, but f-me sometimes it hits hard and fast ... I've actually had nurses come over and ask if I need their assistance

seems I'm allergic to hospitals

Gun to my head answer = boats (only) & even then "it depends".

This. Used to go fishing on a boat and every single time I'd throw up early into the trip once then be fine for the rest of the trip. Not sure if it was actual motion sickness or just that horrible 2 stroke oil burning from those outboards.

Almost never. Only times I've ever had motion sickness was when I played games without a crosshair. The last time was many years ago.

Crosshairs are vital in some games, even just a tiny little dot in the center of the screen.

Not sure, not cars not planes. Never been on a boat

 

[Bobbin]

They said I'd grow out of it.

I'm in my 40's, still haven't grown out of it.

Boat, plane, car, whatever. I can't even take a short paddle-boat myself for more than 15 minutes.

Only if I'm the one driving in a car then I'm mostly fine - unless it's that bloody long windy road to that dam in Lesotho.

Haven't tried VR though.

Never experienced it. The rougher the better/more fun. Laughing @ others getting sick.....yes, psycho.....

 

[LazyLion]

Not when I was younger, but once I passed a certain age, the motion sickness set in....

 

[Fulcrum29]

I have only ever been sick to motion once, and that was mainly due to already being nauseous. I can stand some rough weather, so to speak.

 

[Smugs]

Used to get it when I was younger.. Even though I would hold onto my bed as tight as I could with one foot on the floor that mofo would spin like a merry-go-round.

 

[PaulKempTheSecond]

Big, slow sail boats/yachts at sea with their zig-zagging can go get bent.
Ski boats, dinghies, paddle boats etc are a non issue.

 

[getafix33]

Fished deep sea since I was 12 - never ever been sick.

Tired VR once. 2 minutes with those goggles on and I was done.

 

[Thinking]

So my first SCUBA dive was in Moz: Out on the rubber dingy at 6:30 in the morning - get sick on the way to the dive site, descend to 15m; stay for about 30 minute, upchuck through my regulator; surface, stay on a slowly rocking dingy for 1 hour (get furiously sick) and then when back on dry land, had to stay in my tent until about 8PM before I could move.
So yeah, not SCUBA diving any time soon.

And I tried the heavy anti-nausea stuff they prescribe to epilepsy patients...

 

[SlowInternet]

I get very motion sick on a boat on the sea.

 

[Lupus]

Only if it goes over a min... Oooooh the other motion nope cool with that

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Not really no, the only exception is longer VR sessions which definitely makes me feel light headed after 30 minutes or so.

I'm sure if I was on a small boat in a storm that might do it, although I have been on boats in rough waters before but not crazy storms.

 

[bwana]

Tossed my cookies taking photos of a plane but my stomach was already dodgy before we took off.



Since that day I've also suffered from tinnitus so it's an experience I'll never forget.

Didn't know I got motion sickness on roller coasters - went on a 3 rides and then it hit me like a ton of bricks. Never been so ill in my life. You wish you were dead.

Since then I can't do roller coasters and can't read in a car. Fine if I'm driving but start feeling woozy if I'm a passenger and don't look at the road (So reading a book or something)

I recommend Medazine, as I shared above. It really works for me. I was sick on a bus trip, found a Medazine in my bag and took that, and was buying a Steers burger at the very next stop. It just works that well.

To the Medazine brand manager: you owe me some influencer swag.
