I have had recurrent phases of chronic nausea several times in my life, lasting sometimes days, sometimes weeks, occasionally months. In the past I've tried tinkering with my diet, have spoken with a nutritionist and a natural medicine doctor and attempted to follow their advice, and have also been on several medications prescribed or recommended by my traditional medical doctor.

Now that I've been working with T for awhile I'm wondering how much of it may have been a mind thing related to anxiety and stress.

Over the last few days I've fallen into the misery of constant queasiness again. I am thinking this time around I want to work harder at trying to combat or at least manage it through a mind over matter approach, rather than obsessing about foods to avoid or try. I am thinking along the lines of:

1) Distraction. Don't focus on how miserably nauseous I am. Instead concentrate on a person, conversation, idea, image, task, anything but on feeling nauseated.

2) Guided imagery. I've heard it can be effective in helping with nausea symptoms felt by chemo patients and I've downloaded some guided imagery and music from Amazon designed for that purpose.

3) Continue to work on reducing and managing anxiety and stress overall.

I am wondering if anyone else on here has had troubles with debilitating nausea and if you have any tips or recommendations. What have you discovered that has worked for you?
