I discovered that whenever I have the hiccups, just focusing on it would make it go away since I gain control over the muscles causing it. Just simply sit down, focus on it, think about it, expect it... and it never comes.

That's why I think there are so many different remedies to hiccups that "are sure to work". Because they all do since it makes you focus on the hiccups itself while expecting it to be gone.

I've tried teaching this to friends, but only one has understood and succeeded so far. The rest didn't manage to lose the hiccups and turned to their methods.

Though, it could also be similar to the placebo effect, where focusing on your hiccups just makes you think that will improve your hiccups, and because of that you hiccups actually improve. Who knows XD

Well after I managed to stop it WITH THE POWER OF MY MIND (*dramatic face*) I haven't hiccupteded in.. at least 7 years. Doesn't matter really. Hiccups are uncomfortable and best cured one way or another.


If you have a small cut like a paper cut, putting some nail polish or super glue on it will sting for a few seconds but then serve as an air and water tight seal to let your skin heal without getting ripped open whenever you stretch that skin.

Maybe so. It's pretty good IMO and a quick fix. I know athletes do it a lot nowadays.
