Traveling and Motion Sickness...

I've got it :( Each summer we usually drive 17-18 hours east or west to visit family, just depends which year it is. Each year it seems to get worse, and I'm really limited on the activities I can do in the car. I can't read, write, or color or I just feel terrible. This year decided to try something about it, but couldn't find the non-drowsy dramamine before we left, so then I looked for it when we stopped. I managed to find essential oil mixed for it, you're supposed to put it behind your ears when you feel sick. I thought I'd try it. I also finally found some less drowsy dramamine, some ginger gum, and some bracelet contraption all designed to help with motion sickness. Since I have three out of the four, I decided to give them all a try and see how they work and what I can get away with. Will it just make my tummy feel better, or will I be able to read without feeling sick too? How often do I have to take it, how often can I take it? Effects? Those types of things. Keep an eye out, it's on its way!
