Holding my breath works for me, or maybe it just passes the time. Usually goes away in about 2 full breaths.

BOO!

Still got the hiccups?

Drinking from the far side of a glass has never not stopped my hiccups

Ever get hiccups together with acid reflux? That's an extra special level of hell.

My wife gets bad hiccups sometimes. I meanwhile can just control my diaphragm and stop hiccuping on command. She doesn't seem to find that very fair.

You can't really do it to yourself, but I've had really good luck ending other people's hiccups by offering them $5 if they hiccup again

Gargling and/or drinking upside down have always worked for me. Hiccups suck

Breathe shallow but slow, relax. Hickup is a cramp in the diaphragm, mostly caused through stress.

A friend of mine told a story about his brother who had a major surgery in his abdomen and HAD to control his chronic hiccups while in recovery or risk opening his wounds or worse. His doctors helped. I don’t even remember all the remedies he mentioned because there were several and the point was that each person can be different so you have to figure out what works for you.

I have found a method that works 100% of the time for me. It sounds silly but bear with me. After the hiccup starts, I tell myself "hiccups arent real" or some equivalent phrase, in my inner voice, as convincingly as possible. Like I actually believe it. It stops immediately, before the second hiccup.

I am spreading this method among friends and family, I would say around a third of them report successes, but Im pretty sure not all of them have tried it seriously and some brush it off as bs.

Hiccups are involuntary muscle spasms. Applying heat can help stop muscle spasms no matter where they're occuring. Drinking large gulps of very warm water (as warm as possible) has stopped hiccups for me 100% of the time.

Hiccups suck so bad, people will try all manner of crazy witchcraft to get rid of them.

As someone who gets the hiccups 10-20x a day every day for the last 16 years, fuck hiccups

Hold your breath count to 10 in your head if you hiccup start again until you get to 10

Spoonful of vinegar does the trick

I've never understood why people tolerate the hiccups. You just keep holding your breath. If you hiccup while holding your breath you take another breath and start again until it's gone. I've never had the hiccups for more than a minute.

My dog having the hiccups is the cutest thing ever. But everything he does is cute. Burping is cute too.

Eat a tablespoon of peanut butter. It works.

So, I'm glad I'm not the only one...

I despise the hiccups, and do nothing else until I can get rid of them.

Holding my breath and drinking while continuing to hold my breath works pretty well for me if I can't straight up will them away!

My family thinks it's funny how much I hate them.

Plug your ears and drink water.

Or drink water upside down.

These are the treatments that seem to work the best

I just breathe real slow for like 2 mins and by the time I start breathing manually, it's gone. Nothing painful, nothing required.

My remedy was almost always a teaspoon of mustard.

Remind yourself you are not a fish and it goes away.

water stops mine, but some people can have it pathologically.

Giant scoop of peanut butter works EVERY. TIME.

For me, at least. YMMV.
