Ok so all day in school I've had the hiccups and they're so annoying. It's hard to write a test when every four sec you have to hiccup. I still have them now and I already tried these:
- hold breath for 10 sec - drink a full glass of water - exercise a bit
I don't know what else to do and I'm kinda desperate at this point and I want to know what you guys do so I can get rid of these hiccups, thanks.
The thing that works for me some how is I just stop hiccuping. I don't know how I just think about stoping and I do. My 5th grade teacher always said to try to hiccup and they will go away. Worked for half the class.
I wait for it to go away, because its not really annoying for me...
Same goes for me just ignore them they never last that long tbh only in special circumstances they last longer then 30 minutes and it is rare that I will have them longer for 3 minutes
Hiccups are caused when you have a build up of oxygen in the body so holding your breath is usually the best cure. I just hold mine as long as I can, breathe a bit, and do it again until they're gone.

Uh...no, it's not. It's a muscle spasm.
Lol i had hiccups then a Car almost ran over me, the the hiccups were gone, i guess that works.
That's because you forgot about you hiccups. It's like if you try to hold your arm in the same position for a few hours, you might start twitching. Then you watch it twitch, and it keeps doing so. But once you move your arm around a little and forget about it it stops.
Basically, there's three ways to stop hiccuping.
1) Do some action which involves distracting/moving your throat muscles. 2) Forget about them 3) Control them and stop them yourself <- Is what I do.
Here's a surefire way to get rid of hiccups. Get your self a spoon and fill it with sugar, honey etc... then eat the contents of the spoon. Or, eat a sour fruit.
(Yes, I realize this guy probabaly does not have the hiccups 3 months later but it is a remedy.)
What i do to get rid of hiccups is hold my breath and swallow my saliva. If that doesn't work then i get a glass of water and pour a mouth full in my mouth. I then go upside down against a wall and attempt to drink it, fail and then watch the water go all over the floor. Luckily, my hiccups are then gone!
