It’s impossible to invoke my hiccup cure while also reading Mastodon. It requires absolute concentration. (Hiccups cured after locking phone for about a minute.)
I can stop hiccuping by concentrating on it, but it does take 100% concentration. I can't even let my mind drift.
Is that what you're doing?
@billyjoebowers Yeah, I’m focusing on calming the spasming diaphragm, pushing it down and stilling it. It requires concentration, but only takes a minute or so if you can focus.
It's really the most consistent way, the only way that works for me besides shear luck.
Or sheer luck, that sometimes works too.
Yeah, thinking about a naked man on a white horse requires concentration. What? That's not your cure? Works for me!😂
@lorihc Curious about your cure -- only because I like to keep a few in my brain.
