Suggest Treatment For Nausea And Headaches

I have this problem where when I stay over anywhere other than my house I feel very sick. Many have told me it s just nerves or homesickness but sometimes I ACTUALLY be sick. It starts of fine then just suddenly I don t feel well although sometimes it s gradual . I get like a nerves or car sickness feeling at first then a real feeling of like slight nausea. I also sometimes get headaches and am REALLY cold. I ve tried not eating that much late , before bed I ve tried eating what I usually eat at my house nothing works. It s very embarrassing and would do anything to stop it. I was wondering if there was any type of medicine I could take to prevent this, since there is ones for car sickness, until I grow out of it

Hi,

Even though they appear to be more of psychological origin, as they are interfering with your quality of life especially when away from home, your problem needs to be addressed.

First of all, don’t worry. There is no question of being embarrassed as it’s not your mistake. Just relax and follow the below given simple steps:
1) First of all, try to have a companion whenever you are away from home. The purpose of it is to keep you engaged such that you'll forget your symptoms.
2) Tablet Vomikind or Ondem MD can be taken for nausea.
3) The best solution for you would be mental and physical relaxation either by exercising, freaking out or watching your favourite programs or talking to your loved ones.
4) Other ideas like gardening, reading books, playing with kids and pets can also be done if possible.
5) Practising yoga daily or at least 5 days a week would help you combat your problem in a better way.
6) If you are an introvert, just come out of it and try to mingle with people as much as possible.

One most important thing is that our mind sometimes works as a magnifying lens and thus we feel even a rat as a lion. So, you aren’t suffering from any disease and only a slight change in thoughts and food (as you had already done) should be more than enough.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
