what ever you do don't drink salt water, i was made to drink a pint of salt water when i was young, to try and get me to be sick, it didn't work, but what it has done to me, is i can't have salt at all. i now suffer with dehydration if i have salt at all.
I love my bacon nice and crispy, but then i have to drink plenty as the dehydration kicks in on me.
i would say go see your GP or a walkin place, to get the right help.
Hope this helps

If you feel ill making yourself sick won't help. The bug is already in your system. Drink plenty of water to help flush it out more quickly, and keep warm if you are feeling shivery. Take paracetamol if you have a high temperature.
And try chicken soup (but only if you actually like it) apparently it really does do you good.

If you need to be sick, you will be sick, your body is keyed that way. A good nights sleep and a hot water bottle will make you feel better! Drinking salt water will make you even iller!

i've heard that drinking warm, fizzy lemonade (not sure if its anything fizzy you could give it a go) helps make u sick if ur ill. also, i thought you were meant to keep the room cold (eg. open windows) to stop the bug breeding ? if ur feelin shivery put some layers on would probably work better? hope ur better soon anyway x x

I go sick straight away when I try to swallow salt water...Yeh if you drunk alot of it it could be dangerous...But it's very very difficult to keep down!! That's the beauty of it...
(I don't have an eating disorder btw)
And I agree with the chicken soup thing!!! Even chicken cup-a-soups work!!!!

Salt water will not make you throw up and it is dangerous to drink it

IF it comes to needing to make yourself throw up for medical reasons, or reasons like being hung-over or having to throw up, there is something called Ipecac (sounds gross, tastes gross) that will take about 2 minutes to make you throw up, ask your pharmacist, but he won't give it to you if he thinks you're bulimic.

it does make you sick, but why would you want to do something like that, it could lead you very easily i may add down the slippery slope of an eating disorder
