Getting rid of a cold
 

Any advice for getting rid of a cold?

I've got Vicks, I've been trying to drink water (not particularly successfully admittedly, because the water here tastes horrible), I've been trying to get lots of sleep - but I can't breathe at all and I feel absolutely lousy!! It's also making me snore (because I have to breathe with my mouth open), so I feel bad for everyone else in my dorm!!

Any cunning ideas, or shall I just grin and bear it .. and tell everyone else to buy earplugs?!

Anything with vitamin C in it, and lots of it. Like orange juice, a course of vitamin c tablets maybe? Fruit will help. Hot water honey and lemon can help you feel good. Put some of that vics in hot water in a bowl (be careful) and put a towel over your head and deeply breathe this in it will make you feel less clogged up.

p.s. to help with the snoring, try sleeping on your side.

An oil burner with eucalyptus oil in it, cold and flu tablets, try the hot water with honey and lemon in it and most of all get enough sleep.
