Kstarnet 1,502 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I have motion sickness since young. I'm afraid of taking planes because of the turbulence. I'm going to travel by plane next week, which is less than one hour away. So I need help in distracting myself from the fear or help me get over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrazzyJazzy 4,132 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Stream DAY6 albums. Jk. Uh tbh you just have to be rational. There is medicine and stuff you can take for physical aspects of motion sickness but the rest is up to you. I do genuinely reccommend music tho.

Zahrengold 96 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I close my eyes and pretend that I'm in a train, because the feeling is kind of similar. I'm not sure if it'll help you, but it worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 If it's a longer flight, try and fall asleep. For example staying up the night before :O ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego ista 1,344 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Drink water it helps with headaches when your eustachian tubes open up and equalize pressure faster afterwards when the plane is already up and normal chew gum, food etc chewing can trick your brain into thinking you’re safe and relaxes you a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeker Of Slaanesh 475 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Take some medicine 1hr before hand and let the power of science do it's thing. On another note, i have seen that people with Ms suffer more if they read and move their heads a lot. So i guess don't read instead listen to music and close your eyes. Plane travel, usually, is better than other forms of transport, esp for people suffering from ms. It doesn't really have that erratic and winding movements. It feels like the plane is literally stationary. Turbulence is only scary if they trashing around the air like those in a bad action film. A plane is very resilient and is supposed to be able to bear through the pressure. Don't be scared if the wings bend and jerk, it's normal. Experienced very bad turbulence during a flight to Japan. Plane shook like it was in a tornado gurl. Nothing happened. Planes are very safe. They are very very very well made with different sets of backups even if any engine were to fail.

Kstarnet 1,502 Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 I close my eyes and pretend that I'm in a train, because the feeling is kind of similar. I'm not sure if it'll help you, but it worked for me. I'll try that on my plane trip. Thanks :D If it's a longer flight, try and fall asleep. For example staying up the night before :O ? How do you fall asleep on planes? Help me juseyo. I get motion sickness from planes too, but you can get pills for that. They work great for me. The problem is my mom. She prefer something natural and questioned me when I get pills Take some medicine 1hr before hand and let the power of science do it's thing.

I would still get pretty anxious when turbulence happens Chew gum ~ I also have motion sickness just headaches tho, but chewing gum makes me feel better You're lucky that you only got headaches. For me, I would vomit all of my last meal out. Reminds me of an overnight bus trip back home, I sat on double decker bus with my mom and relatives. I tried not to have that thought, instead focus on sleep throughout the trip. End up puking all the way back home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ideonsshi 936 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Eating out chewing gum may help. Also try to drink ginger as a substitute of medicine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeppuda 243 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Don't eat breakfast and drink pills that way, when you're aboard, you'd sleep like a baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
