Today, after battling for hours to get just a little sleep before my early morning work shift, I finally began drifting off. Then I got the worst attack of hiccups in my life. FML

I'm not sure if OP's username would actually help the situation, but whatever works.

If you dissolve chocolate in your mouth they will go away. Every time I get them I grab some dove chocolate covered almonds (yum!!) and they go away super fast.

Who says '**** my life' because they got hiccups? I'd be grateful as hell if that's the worst of your problems...

Take a paper towel and put over a glass of water and drink. Looks funny but it really does work. It helps with the air bubbles.

I've heard that you're supposed to take the deepest breath you can, hold it for 10 seconds, then without letting it out, suck in more air, hold it for 5 seconds, and then finally suck in the last little bit of air that you can. Hold that for another 5 seconds and then release all of it. It immobilizes your diaphragm which will not allow it to continue spasming. Works for me!

massage your rectum! sounds crazy I know, but I've read a lot about it. (no personal experience though as I don't tend to get hiccups to that extent haha!)

How the hell do you massage your rectum for the love of God?!

Lol, I've heard great things about it!

Just try holding your breath for 30-40 seconds, you may need to repeat this a couple of times. Disclaimer: Holding breath for too long may cause irreparable damage, even death.

My dad went through chemo therapy and one of his side effects was having hiccups for 2 months straight. I can't even imagine.

if your ugly it will be that way for a long time
