Hangover secrets

[yeahnatenelson]

I try to drink water while drinking alcohol heavily, and before bed I chug a coconut water.

 

[jmgrub]

I just dilute all of my beers. 50% beer 50% water seems to be about the right ratio.

But seriously, tons of coconut water and/or iced tea in the morning.

Or just drink bourbon and water. For some reason that gives me no hangover.

 

[ggfunk]

Biscuits and gravy.

I can't believe none of you have mentioned how effective cocaine is at sobering you up and thus making you not feel hungover as long as you drink water with it.

MordorMongo am I wrong?

Oh I just assumed everyone knew.


Apologies.

I find that drinking will cure any hangover. When camping I mix pedialyte and vodka and see where that takes me. Back in the day it used to be a 4loko a day keeps the hangover away.


Hope this helps.

Thank you. Sad to see "start drinking again" fall to page two.

Amateurs.

Preventative:
Eating a fuckload of McD's at 3 am and then pooping before bed.

Reactionary:
Pedialyte and excess grease.

To be fair all of this is ********. All depends on age.

13-18 hangover every time I drank
18-22 drink all night. Sleep all day
23-25 drink and Drugs.

**** it. I kept trying to add after this and I got nothing.

Think I learnt the stop drinking when I have had enough, yet also drank lots of water pretty early in life.

Get old, drink water.

Also drink daily. It helps. Srs.

I know im getting older by the fact that my hangovers are starting to last full days instead of just a few hours. I dread the time in my life when hangovers last longer than a day. I think at that point i'll just ask someone to ole yeller me and I'll know that I lived my best life.

Think you skipped some posts.

Get older, not get hangovers. Seems
That is the way to go.

I had a hangover in the 90’s, it sucked. I decided to avoid them since then.

Mine is different.
13-18: no hangover whatsoever
18-21: mild hangover, less if you puke before bed
21-25: hangovers intensify
26-29: hangovers continue to intensify
30+ can barely even drink anymore

Your experience seems like an outlier.
I dont get hangovers often, but over time theyve become longer and more annoying when I do get them.

Wow

I am different than everyone else


I am calling bullshite on that.....or not

I think I'm trending more towards tosh. While I still get hangovers, when I was younger I'd get them so bad it hurt to live. Hours of nausea and an all day headache. Now I might get a slight headache and body aches but not the nausea.

I always chalked it up to drinking a lot more quantity of swill back then but I've tied one on a bunch this last year and I haven't been deathly ill the next day.

Outdoor exercise (run, walk, hike, etc).

This is the only thing that works for me. Get your miserable ass out of bed, drink a bunch of water/coffee, make a big breakfast, and then go on a hike or do some yard work.

 

[2plums4one]

Short of a couple IV bags of saline, night-of water and next-day Pedialyte for sure. Then unnatural amounts of bacon and eggs. Need to try brewer's yeast.

[2plums4one]

The key is to know your current tolerance, drink plenty of water while drinking...and if you really drank too much, drink ome water before bed, then keep 1/3 cran juice and 2/3 water in a 32 oz cup and drink throughout the night. Works for me anyway. Then again I've been on keto so lately its been 6-7ozs of bourbon a day max, which as long as you don't drink it all at once you shouldn't really have a hangover.

I am always game for experimenting with food options. Especially regional Mexican dishes. Minus ******** cilantro.

Pozole

Menudo

Birria de Chivo

Chilaquiles

Tortas ahogadas

My family, well, my aunts anyway, would start making the massive pots of Menudo the day before any big party, or hell, most weekends, for the men to eat the next day.

I got intro'd to hangover Menudo at much too young and age. But that's how it went in mexican culture.

If you've ever watched Menudo being made from scratch, at least as a kid, it's borderline traumatizing. You got your grandma cutting up a cows stomach in the kitchen, then boiling it for hours.

Oddly, I still crave it whenever I smell it.

Being Italian, tripe was eaten a lot as a kid growing up. Not sure how I would feel about it now.

Same here actually. I used to be a can't drink or I'm a waste the next day type. Now I just dont let myself be and the hangover goes away quickly.

Shaun Hill has some thoughts on this:

I would note that I have tried this, with, predictably, zero success.

I'm on this schedule. After year 30 I was introduced to two new realities:
1) I can get hungover even if I didn't get "drunk"
2) Hangovers can now last two days with day 1 being more existential/depression type (along with physical of course) and then day 2 the traditional physical hangover.
It really sucks...

Also, in my 20s I believed heavily in "very spicy Chilaquiles" and a few pots of coffee as restorative... but now see any food as a hangover multiplier. I think its important to eat and let the body restore but try to keep it low quantity, low impact and easily digestible. Always skip the Gravy Based breakfasts for a little oatmeal. Soup for lunch instead of cheeseburger. Etc.

At some point I reckon these feelings are going to make my give up drinking entirely. Got too many other interests being neglected by the multiple days I lose for one day of grooving =(

Like fighting?

 

[coldstorage]

You've probably noticed that I have been slipping in my commitment to meting out justice and as a result your precious city has been over run with knuckleheads.

I drink, but we all pay the price.

Pro-tip:

Sonic seems to be about the only fast food option that'll cook you a big ass bacon cheeseburger for hangover breakfast at 6am.
