What do you do when you have the hiccups?

[Q-T_3.14.exe]

I usually hold my breath. Sometimes it works on the second attempt.

[Mr. Smiles]

Burp and fart at the same time.

Works every time.

[Rumpelcrutchskin]

Drinking water works.

[Kobs]

Like someone else said it's a diaphragm thing or more precisely a diaphragm spasm.
What you want to do is stretch it for a bit. So like someone else (again) said, inhale as much as you can and hold it for as long as you can but while you do it, lift your arms up to give that diaphragm even more of a stretch and hold them up . When you can no longer hold your breath, let it out slowly lowering your arms down to your sides.
if it's not gone at the first try, twice should do it.

Nothing, I just wait.

Nothing works for me.

Holding my breath and drinking water has used to work years ago, but after encountering it just a few weeks ago, it was hopeless.
Not only did it occur more than five times per a day, but I was unable to get it under control.
It was quite funny, but I wouldn't wanna repeat it.

i just watch some old 2017 jumpscare clips

[Mr_Blank]

I ask them to leave and they do

[Supersquid]

Nothing.

[Angel]

I breathe heavily to disrupt the spasms in the diaphragm.

[Vince ✟]

deep breath holds.

Light a match, and put it out in a small glass of water. Then drink the water.

Don't know what the match is for, but it seems to work.

[Here is my card]

Meditate. A simple two, three minute meditation helps for hiccups, nervousness and incoming panic attack.

Something with Sulphur? Interesting. I have never heard of that remedy before. Next time I have hiccups, I'll try it

Drink a few gulps from a water glass -- upside-down.

You have to bend over, and put the rim of the glass so you're drinking with your upper lip.

So, either do it outside or over the open dishwasher or bathtub.

It works.

I stop them with sheer force of will. :P
