I’m both hungry and also have hiccups. Anyone have any ideas?

    How to kill hiccups in three easy steps - guaranteed to work every single time:

    1. Fill a pint (or any big glass) with water
    2. Exhale all air out
    3. Finish that pint in a single continuous gulp without pausing

      LOL, I’ve heard of that before.

      I’ll pass though, I took some Alka Seltzer earlier and so far so good. 👍🤞

    Every time I have hiccups I stop it immediately by changing the rhythm of my breathing and making sure I breath using my diaphragm.

    1. Get water
    2. Sip the water slowly and constantly
    3. Always be swallowing
    4. Don’t stop
    5. Keep Sipping
    6. It should start to feel weird how long you’ve been sipping this water
    7. Keep sipping
    8. Enjoy not having hiccups

    It took me years to work out when people say drink water, they don’t mean, just take a mouthful and swallow. You actually need to slowly sip the water.

      Sadly I don’t have any right now, but I’ve already tried Pepto Bismol and also gas relief pills, like the closest things we have around right now. No dice, still hiccups… ☹️

      Honestly I feel like if I could just have one good long fart that the hiccups might pass LOL!

    What works for me is looking into a light and continuously swallowing my saliva as often as possible

    My go-to for hiccups is to empty then fill my lungs past where they’re comfortable and hold as long as possible. It’s not comfortable, but has been the best remedy. Peanut butter sounds like it would be good since it’s slow to swallow

    Gaslight yourself into believing hiccups aren’t real. Sounds crazy but it works. Just tell yourself they aren’t real and really believe it

    Sit up straight. Breath in as much as you can. Then a little bit more. Hold as long as you can. Let it out slowly.

    Works every time for me.
