Best treatment I’ve found if you’re already motion sick is laying flat on your back in the grass

Hmm, I’ll try the happy music someday. I’m usually listening to metal lol. xD

Non-music but my trick is to breathe something herbal, or this is really bad, but breathe an alcohol pad lol. Instant dome to the head in dire situations. Helps a looootttt.

What on earth is an alcohol pad, something I’m too European to understand?

Does Europe not sell pads with IPA on them for first aid kits?

Edit: to clarify this is not a rhetorical question. I'm genuinely wondering because the name seems self explanatory to me but I've seen them all my life.

Riiight yes of course we do, once you mentioned first aid it became obvious. The word “pad” felt unfamiliar and my mind was going more towards food related.

Like these, commonly used in healthcare for disinfecting lol

If that worked for me, I dont think I would have to limit my VR gaming sessions to only 30 minutes because of the motion sickness I get in them.
