Vomiting when dehydrated is your body’s worst attempt at first aid. It’s like hitting a fire alarm to put out a grease fire. Technically a response, execution: zero stars.
Your body is smart, but also kind of an idiot. It means well. It’s trying to protect you, but it uses the wrong tools. Nausea and puking are its hammer—and every problem looks like a nail.
So be kind to it. Drink water before you’re thirsty. Eat salty snacks. Avoid the “dry heave horror show.” And if you do end up hugging the toilet, just whisper: “I forgive you, weird flesh mech.”
