Question of the Day - Tuesday, November 15

Greetings everyone! 

Do you get car, sea, plane or train sick?

I only get motion sickness in the car - As a passenger, if I look away from a window for too long, even just for a few of minutes, I can get really queasy. It's much better now than when I was a kid, as I used to actually throw up if not careful. But nevertheless, I still can suffer from it today. Obviously the back seat is worse than the front seat.

I'm totally fine with all other modes of transportation   Can do any activities, can flip me or shake me around and am totally hunky dory. 

I used to get car sick as a kid- especially if I tried to read, Now I'm fine. I've never been seasick, airsick or train sick. 

My brother and I were the carsick twins back then. Yes, we used to puke. We had to take Dramamine. He also got airsick which was the only real memory I have on my first plane ride. That was fun. I'm a sympathetic puker. 

No, although I do get nausea a lot especially when I wake up in the morning.

Nope. 

Not as an adult.  As a kid, I once got airsick.  Yuck.  

No, 

As a kid, car sick, always. It didn't help that my mom would smoke like a chimney in the car.

I haven't had any problems with it since.  Except if on a boat under very extreme conditions where everyone else is as ill as I am.

nope. I love the boat as it goes up and down on the waves when deep sea fishing...love planes when it takes off. cars that go...no issues..love any type of movement

All of the above. Yuk.

I could see myself getting sea sick, just because the idea of being so far in open water is terrifying to me, but because of that I'll probably never know if I'd get sick.   I'm fine with other modes of transportation.

My little sister has had car sickness trouble her entire life. One of my most vivid memories as a kid was when we were driving to Chicago for a Cubs game and stopped for gas. She got some chocolate milk, and once we were back on the road puked all over MY BLANKIE! I was furious. 

Can't sit in the back seat of cars very well, and boats just slay me.  I've been in planes in ALL kinds of weather, and in a LOT of very stressful situations (my dad landed us in a cow pasture with no landing gear once, and we took off in the dead of night fleeing Nicaragua during a general strike once...that was fun) with nary a quease.

I used to get sick soon AFTER disembarking an airplane. I suppose that's airsickness, though I can't figure out why it happened after I got off. I also used to get carsick from sitting in the far backseat of a minivan (I could sit in the middle seats. I think it had something to do with being able to see out the front window). I never did get seasick, although I haven't been on a cruise or anything to really find out. I do know it really messes with your brain to be in an interior room in rough seas, because we once took an overnight ferry and it got a bit choppy that night. I didn't get sick though.

Fortunately I seem to have outgrown motion sickness. I wouldn't want to test it too much though, lol.

LOL. Exact same thing here.

to some extent, i do experience some car and plane related motion sickness. in cars, i can not read while the car is moving, or look out the side windows and watch the scenery speed by. in planes, it's the turbulence. if there's turbulence, i can feel (quite) queasy.
