For instance, I get sea sick and occasionally car sick, but I don't get sick on a bus, or a train, or a plane. Does anyone have any ideas please, this is really puzzling me. No silly answers please.

Motion sickness is caused in part by a discrepancy between what the eye sees and what the inner ear feels. (This is why the driver of a car gets sick much less frequently than a passenger: the driver is continuously watching the road, getting a good idea of what is coming next.) It may help to close your eyes the moment you start to consider thinking about getting airsick.

It is motion sickness and if you will get some Dramamine it will help you a lot. You can buy it over the counter. My niece has to take some about thirty minutes before she gets in a car to go just a few miles.

I believe it might be connected to the movement or the sound of the engines. I got a bad case of vertigo on a plane and solved it by sitting in the very front or the back of the plane where the sound was less loud.

sometimes its not motion sickness. it can be a purely mental thing. its the fact that some people cannot deal with not being in control of the situation.
