I feel like I'm in a boat when I get home

If you puff a doobie, you will feel just fine!!! It goes away for me with a warm shower!

I didn't know you could get in on freshwater. *I've never experienced it in freshwater but all the time on the ocean. *Maybe because we typically are on the water much longer? *Sometimes it can be weird taking a shower when I close my eyes. *Sitting on the can will make life interesting too. *Also find my legs are sore the next day from maintaining balance. *

after about a week on a houseboat.i feel it.usually takes me a day to get over it.closed in places will usually make the "land sickness"worse.

yea, takes awhile to lose your sea-legs and get your land-legs back.
I got used to it in the Navy, it doesnt bother me anymore and usually subsides in a couple hours.

Or do like a friend of mine swore by, drink until you stagger straight

Yeah...i get that feeling a lot. It's weird and it lasts awhile after we get home. By suppertime sitting at the table eating, i still feel like we're on the boat. One time after spending about 12 hours on Melones last summer, my husband & I both felt quite w-a-v-y. It was pretty funny. And they say "get a life" Ha HA!

Navy guys call it getting your sea legs. Ever seen a bunch of Navy guys get off a ship and try to march. Funniest thing I've ever saw. They move back and forth when they march in a line.

I get this every time I go out,whether on the delta,ocean,lake.
I just got back last night from fishing the Freeport derby all weekend & still feeling the rock & roll of the river.
It ussaully last anywhere from a day or 2 up to a week.Nothing real bad,don't make me sick or nothing just feels like I'm still floating on the water.

Somebody once said taking monster doses of vitamin C , something around 2-3000mg would help prevent it too.

I always figured sea or car sicknes was in your head.

Consider yourself lucky. I assure you, seasickness is not a figment of our imaginations.

I love fishing, I'll go out and chase salmon in the Ocean even though it means I'll spend more time "chumming" than fishing. But then, there are times when it just becomes too much. Even after taking the dramamine the night before and the morning of, and focusing on the Horizon, and eating ginger snaps. I assure you I'm very "strong minded" and believe that mind over matter has benefited me greatly in other aspects. Seasickness is definately a PHYSICAL condition.

Can you tell I'm defensive? [smiley=roadblock.gif]
