Good Luck!How do you remedy motion sickness and how does it happen?Motion sickness is caused by a confusion between what you feel and what you see. Although your brain understands that you're moving (because you can see that you're traveling) and you have a sensation that you're moving, you don't quite feel like it because, well, you're sitting perfectly still.



I don't know why you suddenly became motion-sick. It usually starts as a young child and is later outgrown. It could have been a particularly bumpy road or a different kind of car. It could have been something you ate that unsettled your stomach on the ride.



As for how to prevent future motion-sickness, I recommend that you try using Sea-Bands or Dramamine. Sea Bands, worn around a point a few inches up from your wrist, while Dramamine is a pill or a tablet that prevents motion sickness and makes you very sleepy.How do you remedy motion sickness and how does it happen?Don't know how it started and don't know why. But I started getting motion sickness in cars about 7 years ago. I was 32 at the time. When I'm driving, no sickness. When I'm a passenger, sick. Cure: When a passenger, sit in the rear seat %26gt; no motion sickness. Why? Don't know. But it works for me! Good Luck.How do you remedy motion sickness and how does it happen?
AHH me too I hate it, my mom buys me Dramamine and it works really well. You just have to take it like 20 minutes before you start to drive (:
