Baby's first hangover

greenspun.com : LUSENET : I Wasn't Built to Get Up at this Time : One Thread

Aw man, I'm dying here. You gotta help me. Remedies? Cures? Something to make the drum-and-base act in my head go away?

And quick!

When I drink a lot which is rare I usually either just sleep until the pain goes away or have someone yell into my ear until my brain is numb. The second is best if you have to work the next morning.

LOTS OF WATER!! Main reason you get a hangover is due to dehydration. Also, take lots of B-vitamins today. Do you guys have the Goody's headache powders? Those work wonders because of the caffeine along side the pain med.! Good Luck!

Lots and lots of pain killers. Hehe. Also, try eating before you go to bed. Of course, there's not necessarily any truth to any remedies on here, since I've heard some of the most off-the-wall hangover cures.

I think I had a hangover today, but I think I slept right through it, since I woke up around 2:00 this afternoon. But I did bang up my ass and my leg when I slipped on some ice last night, and of course, the numbing effect of the alcohol seemed to "cushion" the fall. Ooooohhhh, did I feel it when I woke up today. I can still barely sit down.

McDonalds. Eat a Big Mac. All the grease will get rid of that hangover in no time... it works for me.

WATER! You should have been drinking lots of water with your alcohol. But I usually hide in the comfort of my bedroom and sleep it off, then work on not feeling like too much of an idiot later.

I've heard that drinking an egg yoke is meant to clear it up instantly? Anyone tried this? Because, frankly, I'm sure as hell not!

-- Tim (tim@almighty.co.uk), December 10, 2000.

well, the best cure is prevention and that means that - YOU SHOULDN'T DRINK IT IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT!

only kiddin!

No, just sleep - it does wonders.

Get rid of the drum and bass act in your head? Listen to or get someone to sing "Doctor Jones" by Aqua. Trust me, all the physical pain will vanish instantly and the only mild side effect you'll experience is suicidal tendencies.

I'm so good I've never been badly pissed bfore. Well, that's what my parents would say. I manage to get whacked on 7 Bacardi Breezers in 3mins once. I pueked and I felt a lot better. NEway, if you're pissed how r u gonna read this and take my good advice of pueking it all back up??

James - that's so dumb! It's like saying you shouldn't go to a horror movie if your going to get scared!

And anyway, the only reason people drink alcohol is because of the effect it has on them. Does anyone actually *like* the stuff?! ;)

For hangovers, puke as quickly as possible and drink lots of water afterward.

Well, as for liking alcohol.. Baily's irish cream is heavenly yummmmmmm

Try and have a glass of water beside your bed before you go to sleep so when you wake up with the dry horrors, you don't have to move.

Otherwise, Jalapeno peppers work. Seriously.....it sounds weird but they worked for me.

I don't get hangovers anymore...yay!

-- Julia (vixen@ihug.co.nz), December 17, 2000.


You should try to sleep it off and when you wake up every hour-ish you usually throw up and after that you should go brush your teeth drink water, suck on ice and like after the ninth time you throw up you should drink a pepsi or something because that will clear everything right up.
