Jackson, FL USA Vitamin C (via oranges or orange juice), and chicken soup. Angela, 18
Bella Vista, AR USA For a headcold, motrin and maybe an anithistamine (over the counter), tissues and 8 solid hours in bed each night till it's gone. For a chestcold, same as above but will also drink lots of hot tea, usually with lemon, throughout the day. And for any cold....much grumbling; it helps. Fisch, 46

Gahanna, OH USA i believe in over the counter meds to help through my suffering. However, my fiance believes in natural comfort like Vitamin C drops and such. He never gets sick....maybe it really works. But until I get proof that Vitamin C alone cures the common cold, I'm stickin' with the old traditional tissues, Stephanie, 25

Lowell, MA USA Under ordinary circumstances, I eat right (well, for me) and fortify myself with Vitamin C and get lots of rest so that I don't get a cold in the first place. But when I do get one, I do pretty much the same thing I would to prevent one. And I try to get more rest and hot food. Karen, 22
Ames, IA USA My happiness depends on my attitude, not on outside events. Jill, 61
Saylorsburg, PA USA I'm not sure. It's been awhile since I've been truly happy. Felicia, 36
Lowell, MA USA First I deny I have it until I'm literally passing out from symptoms. Then I try and live with it and when that fails I resort to the greatest medicine ever created - NyQuill. When I've reached that stage I'm like an addict with methodone. Heck even DayQuill will show up from tiem to time (but watch out for the heartburn). But it's the Green death taste that will always have a warm place in my (sleepy) heart. ;) Keri-Jade, 21
Brampton, Ontario CANADA My treatment for a cold is Orange Juice, Orange Juice, and more Orange Juice... Frodo
