I feel so sick right now...

The feeling will ultimately go away, but I just get really carsick easily. If I'm driving my car, I'm totally fine... but when other people drive, I just feel sick.

My mom's driving has actually made me puke before... on multiple occasions. Her speed is just SO erratic. Instead of keeping her foot in one position on the gas pedal, she pumps the gas pedal, which means I'm constantly getting jerked backwards and forwards.

Basically, she'll be driving at 30mph... Then she'll slam her foot on the gas pedal until the speed hits 40mph. The second it hits 40mph, she lets go of the gas pedal until the speed goes back down to 30. rinse and repeat. It's really bad.

I was carpooling with some guy to work today. He doesn't do that crap my mom does, but I still feel sick.

I wonder if it's my meds that're doing this. I never used to be like this before meds. (Well, my mom's driving always made me go nuts...)

Hello bluebicycle: My spouse has this problem. She's not on any medications of any kind.

I'm sorry you suffer with this. I've had car sickness as long as I can remember. I have a phobia of being in cars. It's better when I'm in control of the wheel though.
