Question by Dennis: How to counteract cough medicine sleepiness?

Best answer:

Answer by Kiplin!
You can’t and you shouldn’t.

Taking a stimulant while on cough medicine will only make things worse because Cough Medicine causes your blood pressure to rise and so do stimulants.

You need to find a form of cough medicine for “day time use”.

If you mean this as in “Getting High” and staying awake to see the hallucinations, that too is something you can’t really do…

The only thing to do then is to have a “Sitter” there to wake you up and keep you talking and focused.

Abusing Cough Medicine can kill you…

Question by Tommorws Dreams: What is there to do on a Carnival Cruise Line ship for 19-20 year olds?
So my parents want me to come on this cruise with them, Carnival Destiny I think. I am 19 and I want to know if there are any fun things specifically for the “not really a teenager but cant legally drink” crowd to do. I know we can tan on the deck etc. But do they have activities planned just for that age demographic? If so, what are they?

Best answer:

Answer by Cave Creek
The ships have a teen club you are too old for. There are all sorts of things to do on a cruise. As you said, the pool and hot tubs, Miniature golf, climbing wall, theatre, movies, deck games, basketball and volleyball, a library, dances and a disco, a walking track, cooking classes, card games, trivia, and finding young people of the opposite sex to hang with. There are zany contests all the time and a lot around the pool. Being with your parents in a relaxed adult atmosphere– see them in a new light. Life memories. You will enjoy.

Question by SunShine: What is the best over the counter acne treatment?
I need an acne treatment that I can get at walmart or a drug store. I don’t need a facewash. Just “spot treatment” for acne that I can put right on the pimple. What have you used? What works best? Any skincare tips?

Best answer:

Answer by Molly
Aside from the obvious of eating healthy and avoiding junk food, consider taking vitamin B and baking soda scrubs. I also put a bit of salus spray on baking soda and it works remarkably well. Try it. I get the spray from ebay and it lasts forever if refrigerated.
Cheers, Mol
