 Drinking water upside down like this is the best remedy for hiccups I've found

 🤙 In high school, when I got a bad case in Algebra II, my classmate told me to believe I didn’t have hiccups; I didn’t really understand what she was talking about. But a moment later, no hiccups. And I’ve not had successive hiccups ever since. I think either she put a spell on me or it has to do with consciously relaxing my diaphragm 
 So you're telling me hiccups aren't real?

 I found for me that holding my breath and drinking water works #homeremedies 
 Holding breath works for me everytime as well. 

It’s more of a mindfuck to your body though so you have to really buy in haha
