I'm sorry if this is the wrong topic to talk about this, but I really need advice. I just absolutely hate throwing up. I always feel so awful. Then, sometimes I get dreams about my siblings or relatives throwing up in the dreams. When I wake up, I feel quesy. Also, in like class at school, when someone throws up, I feel queasy again..OR, if I hear that someone threw up. What I'm worried about most is that when I go to California this year for a vacation, and then we will have to drive from LA to San Diego, it will be a 2 hour ride. And then my cousin is coming, same with my aunt, and they get car sick, and I dont want to have that feeling the whole way. It's not because I'm carsick. Then I'll be having my period, so having that feeling might make me feel worse. Is there any way to not make me feel this way? Or something to do? Thanks a lottttttt!!! :)

Also bring a clear pop like sprite, or up. It helps from getting quesy or that feeling of having to throw up. Also for cramps or bloating eat chocolate, maybe buy a small bag of chocolate bits. Take pills before you leave for your cramps or to prevent any kind of pain. If you are uncomfortable that usually where the trouble begins. I woudln't suggest reading a book, the flow of words and reading inside your head might make you sick even before you really leave. Request a spot when the air will be flowing directly at you. If sit in front of the air, it will keep you cool especially when you get hot, sweaty, and eventually nauseated. This will help prevent that.

I don't really have any medical advice, and I'm not a doctor so I don't feel right in doing so.
I think occupying your time with something like your iPod and a book would be good ;]
