I just came back from the docter and the vertigo effect I sometimes experience when playing games is because I am hyperventilating, aka, I breathe too much. Too much is not good and I am thus lacking carbon dioxide. When I go play games under these circumstances I get nauseaus, dizzyspells and the feeling of falling over, not to mention chest pains, heart pounding etc - all symptoms of hyperventilation. Even panic attacks are a symptom. Ok?

So what exactly is there in a game that affects my breathing. I don't have a clue, at all. At first I thought it was because of the eye vs screen movement. I remember playing my first FPS and I got sick from playing (same things I mentioned above). I thought it was merely motion sickness, but appearantly that's only partly the case, in my case o.O

Seems whatever takes place in the game, wether it excites, angers or frustraties me, obviously influences how I breath. I can only assume the less I let it affect me, the less obvious these influences will become - but who plays a game that way?

Isn't this a Catch 22 situation? Or am I just being a nut. Again?

Dare I install and play Il2 again? Risk it? Yes no? Help?

see?

that's what happens when women try to do stuff

You meany

but it was funny haha

I think I've seen my mom in an outfit like that hehe. Oh wow.

Guess I better go back to the kitchen then. You going to teach me how to cook? huh?

Vertigo?

I get motion sickness when playing certain levels in CoD.

Thankfully no vertigo - otherwise I'd not be able to fly

THe trick is to wear a gas mask or one of those wee masks people use when out in the traffic - it'll cut down your O2 levels

I'd also recommend playing in a sealed room with no plants, in the dark and wearing rubber gloves.

Hmm... must talk to someone about these fetishes...

Yes yes very funny.

But I still am hyperventilating, and flying a plane while blowing air into a paper bag isn't going to win any wars now is it?

c'mon you guru's, help a stray kitty out here! Meow!

Got Milk?

Oh wait, I am on a diet, no diary. Gah!

Nightmare.

... maybe you could use pegs clamp your nose shut, then i have about fifty zillion plastic bags, if youve ever bought a fish you know the ones you can tape over your mouth and.....
go kinda this colour

Hi Kitty,

What about booze?

Couple of large Lagavuilin's or Bunnahabhain's always sees me calm down .................and shot down.

(As opposed to Stella which makes me jump like a frog on a hot frying pan.)


Or try a spot of meditation before you go burning, bombing, machinegunning.


OMMMMmmmmmmmmmratatatatatatatatatat

Yes booze does cure it but I seem to get other symptoms then

Booze makes me snooze

I drink occasionaly, but in my experience alchohol usualy is a downer, which in my case isn't a good thing to get afterwards

The mix of meditation and metal is probably more feasible for me I really really like how Ooooohmmmmmratatata sounds

So whenever you hear

Ooohhhmmm

the ratatata is near

ahah!
