Amazing! How often do you get them?

I find I most frequently get hiccups when I’m in the supermarket, which I find super stressful too! They’re definitely linked to stress levels for me, and periods of higher sympathetic activity.

Oh wow!! I have a theory about hiccups and nervous system formation, (I had hiccups a lot when my mum was pregnant with me too!) and your story supports the theory! I’d like to know if your mum had a stressful time during her pregnancy and whether she is likely to have had high levels of cortisol while you were growing. This has a huge impact on the formation of the foetal nervous system and my learnings about Polyvagal theory make me think there could be a link!

I actually have a theory that it’s a ‘buildup’ of fight/flight energy/activation that isn’t allowed to be expressed through physiological avenues and so it’s the body’s way of venting excess sympathetic nerve energy.

It’s like a daily occurrence with glasses and phones isn’t it?? 😅

Hehehe thanks 😅

Oh wow! POTS and ADHD! Does that mean you have syncope? I’ve recently been speaking to someone who has started having that symptom frequently and has been searching for a cause/diagnosis. I wonder if POTS fits their situation?! How long do your hiccups last for?

@@kriskingwell9961 For slow ones is 1 hour and 50 minutes. But for fast is 32 Minutes or less

@@marymonsterandcreatormary3783 That’s so long!!!! Do they just go away by themselves or did you have to do something to get rid of them?

@@kriskingwell9961 They go away by itself.

I have POTS and adhd as well, are they linked? I'm here because i hate having hiccups and can't do anything until they go, was wondering if hiccups was linked to adhd. Crazy

Well I’m only on a starting dose of Vyvanse at the moment (been on 30mg for a couple of weeks), my psychiatrist expected to increase it from here. I have actually noticed a small difference in working memory though I think, for just a couple of hours in the morning. I seem to be remembering everything I need to take with me or the kids for the day… 🤞and the morning school prep routine is a little less stressful. Definitely have noticed a little less anxiety, more patience and peacefulness too though! Just a touch, but I’m hoping that will increase when I move the dosage up in a week or so! ☺️

Thanks so much! It feels like a pretty hip club to be part of…. I haven’t seen it and will definitely check it out! Useful videos are exactly what I need right now! 😊

@@kriskingwell9961 Hippest club EVER! :) I have a video called “I Think I Have ADHD” or something like that and in the description of that video are a bunch of links to dedicated ADHD channels. How to ADHD is by far the biggest of the channels but every channel in that list has helpful information.

Yes, I’m trying to balance the desire to go down that road with repeated reminders to myself of what I’m grateful for in my life now that I may not have. I think as part of my processing I will probably do a thorough analysis of every event in my whole life ever and how the outcome could have been different 😅 but I don’t think I’m quite ready yet…

@@kriskingwell9961 lol. I'm NEVER doing that. At 50, opens up waaaaay too much room for unnecessary regrets. But that's me. Lol. A lot to do with environment, probably.
