DYKT if you make a fist with your left hand with your thumb inside and squeeze hard (pic attached) it seems to turn off your gag reflex. I did the fist and poked my finger down my throat and didn't gag

*** DISCLAIMER *** don't try this at home (but if you do, go in the bathroom first) could be handy for dental trips if your gag reflex is sensitive
