cold/flu type of sickness

[gunnar]

when you guys are sick with a cold or flu what do you do to soothe your throat, get rid of mucus, and just feel better overall?
i know most of the answers will be obvious things, i'm asking for the more unheard of options one's i haven't tried yet.
tried:
-tea (hate it)
-gargle salt water (hate it as well)
-vitamins
-crackers and water
-rest
give me some more suggestions on what i could do to feel somewhat better

You can buy very thick honey, and swallow it. That usually helps if you haven't heard of that.
Or if its any better buy Maraschino cherries and eat that, its veery thick though, and tastes good. You shouldn't have a sore throat for a while, it bumbs the pain in a way. Glad I can help if I did.

if you have severe pain in your throat or head take some painkillers or something like ibuprofen, or maybe try to get some amoxicillin prescribed to you if you have a respiratory infection.

i can't stand the taste of cherries
it makes me cringe
i'll try some honey tea or just straight honey off a spoon

I usually take Theraflu and NyQuil. They fuck me up.

Take some benadryl, or nyquil, but don't take both at one time as they both contain about the same stuff. Also you can try wrapping yourself in a blanket to sweat out a fever, other than that you can try a hot bath, and rest.

Smoke some weed and relax, when I had mono that's all I did.

Smoke some bud or see a doctor to prescribe you something.
