Hangover Cures : Lets here yours....

[Lowk]

So it's summer time...
with school being out for the moment, i have been drinking way to much lately. I was never one to get hung over, but it has been happening quite often the past month or so. Having never really had to deal with a mean hangover, i am kinda clueless as to how to remedy the problem, besides the obvious re-hydrate yourself.

So fill me in as to how you shake off a bad hangover.....
This thread will also accept stories of " I was so drunk last night i did X", "This morning i woke up with X laying next to me", and anything thing else alcohol associated.

inb4 "don't drink" as your cure for a hangover...



edit- i know i spelled hear wrong

Try eating something before bed and mix in a water or two during the evening. Aspirin and water with your food before bed.

DO NOT TAKE ASPIRIN! Sure fire way to kill your liver over time.

Drink shit tons of water 1 hour prior to pass out.

Drink green tea the next day, do not smoke, try and get some sun and workout or do some yard work. This is your best bet... there is no miracle. If there was I would have found it.

Man up and deal with it. If you're going to drink to the point of a hang-over, there is no fucking "cure." You could also try drinking something other than fairy cocktails.

Trying to prevent or making it less severe your best bet. Order a glass of water with your beer. When I drink rye and ginger I usually order it pressed. Drink water before you go to bed, and keep water on your nightstand for when you wake up during the night.

I've heard people saying you have some liquor in the morning after to make it better, but I've never tried it myself. I do what dFriend said, man up and deal with it.

Anything worth doing is worth doing right. I don't see much of a point and having one or two beers, then stopping. It has quite literally no effect one me. So usually if you catch me drinking, its gonna be till i pass out with a fith on the floor next to where ever it is i pass out. I like beer, a lot, but the thing is, i cant consume it fast enough to actually get drunk. The exception to this is, if i am at a pub drinking pints, it's something imported and tasty, and the bartender doesn't suck.

manning up and dealing with it isnt a problem, im not sitting here boo-hooing...
I just wanna lessen the blow today, and in a preventative sense in the future.

Pressed? What does that mean?

Drink clear drinks, the browner it is the worse you will feel. (Heard a rumour about this and I seem to feel better with only vodka)
Take lots of water + vitamin tablets before sleeping as the alcohol makes you dehydrated and absorbs the nutrients from your body.
So maybe drink vokda with orange juice all night and you'll be fine?

Btw does whiskey give anyone else memory loss?
I love the stuff but when your last memory is seeing a guy dressed as a nazi in a club, before waking up naked 4 miles away in your bed with sick on your shoes and semen in your underware... well it makes me a little worried.

Some of the ginger ale in the drink is replaced with water.

There is a lot of wiggle room between 2 or 3 beers and passing out on the floor. Unless you're a pussy.

Hot showers or a swim in a cold pool does it for me. Also lots of water.

oh and vitamin B12 is huge for recovery. Alcohol takes a lot of it out of you.

[Masakari]

I usually take a couple asprin and drink a bottle of water before going to bed. It's a good way to keep you from waking up feeling like shit.


Easy and simple.

Blacking Out/Memory Loss is not caused by how much you drink, its caused by the speed your blood alcohol goes up.

Personally, water by my bed, I try to drink atleast 1 gatorade before sleep, right when I get up. It has some electrolytes that'll help.

Personally the best trick I found (which works for me because I'm a super night owl) don't go to sleep til you start to feel yourself sobering up a little. I've gotten done drinking around 2, but not gone to bed til 4/5am works really well.

If I wake up with a hangover. Tortilla chips + water. Its easy on the stomach and will prevent hangover puking. Throw an Advil or two with that. And then go back to sleep for another hour or 4.

Alternatively I've had hangovers on morning I had to go to work. (outdoor heavy labor) Basically routine as usual. Big breakfast (eggs, waffles, toast, bacon that sort of stuff) get to work drink gatorade, and just get to it. About 30 minutes of heavy work clears out a hangover pretty damn fast.

Nothing ground breaking here, but when I've been out drinking all night I find two things help my hangover tremendously. I drink either a large amount of water before bed or ideally a gatorade. I also make sure I eat something before I go to sleep.

I tend to drink beer while I pregame and then drink morgan cokes all night, followed by the above two steps and I usually feel pretty solid in the morning.
