Suggest Treatment For Motion Sickness

I want to take a cruise in November and am severely worried about seasickness as I am very prone to motion sickness, and have been all my life. Could you please advise me on what options are available to me and how I 'might' prevent what I believe will be inevitable.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your descriptions. I suggest you not to worry much. You have not mentioned your age and occupation in the description. Motion sickness is due to psychological as well as physiological causes. Once physiological causes act, they also create worry, stress and anxiety and embarassment. These makes the sickness intolerable. You should understand that you have a condition and learn to accept it. Carry mediines for motion sickness and consider sickness with ease. Ignore it. Let it happen and don't shy away. So many people have it. Take confidence and courage from those incidents and be bold. Always say - SO WHAT?-. You need cognitive behavior therapy. I can help you with that. Please post a direct query to me with every minute details possible. I shall prescribe tailormade cognitive behavior therapy techniques to you which should clear your problems within weeks.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
