Thread: FAQ: Hangovers

  1. #1

    Default FAQ: Hangovers

    Some of you may wonder how to prevent hangovers. This thread is for those to contribute tips, and promote discussion on this horrendous disorder that affects every person who matters.

    I have a tip - drink water before you go to sleep.
    I have another tip - drink a beer when you wake up.
    I have yet another tip - but I don't really feel like typing it.
    And finally - when's that EoFF AA meeting going to happen?

    Peace out,
    Sober McSoberson

    You'll be able to hold your liquor better on a full stomach. Have a mighty meal beforehand and try to work a lot of starch into it. Potatoes are god at this.

    Keep drinking stuff like soft drinks and water as you drink alcohol. Personally, I like to munch on ice in between drinks. Don't go too hard. If you're planning on drinking a lot of alcohol, it's better to pace yourself than to slam it down within a short space of time. But I understand that this isn't always possible, especially if you're as bad at drinking games as I am. xD

    These tips help you to not get drunk in the first place. But remember, it's a delicate balance. Filling up your stomach won't make you invincible and if you do exceed your limits and vomit, having a full stomach is going to be much much worse for you (and whoever has to clean up after/take care of you).

    So I'd like to finish up with the best piece of advice, drink responsibly.

    It takes 1 hour for one unit of alcohol to get out of yer system, roughly.
    Also, apparently, if you take lemon juice along with the alcohol that helps.

    I heard you squirt the lemon juice in your eye.

    Drink Orange Juice in the morning to help the hangover.

    Water. Just lots of water. An easy half of the hangover is simply dehydration. Also Vitamin B12(I think) also helps I've heard. Finally, as Mo said, pace yourself.

    Many thanks Christmas!

    water and sleep are the only things that will effectively decrease the severity of a hang-over. The rest all depends on your liver.


    I hear brown people have bad livers.

    Isn't there just a pill you can take before (or is it after? But then again, most people would forget) you drink so that you wake up the morning after without a hangover

    I have another tip: DON'T GET DRUNK LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

    There, now nobody needs to say that ever again. And if you do, I hope your nose falls off and the doctors say they can't sew it back on, and you're forced to live out the rest of your life as a noseless freak, instead of just an unfunny and unoriginal freak (like me).

    Don't go crazy on the super sugary mixed drinks or bitch beers. I shotgunned two of those fruity Smirnoff things on Friday (after drinking like, three pina colada's and three other fruity Smirnoff things) and I got the worst sugar cramps I've ever had in my life. Also, bad things happened with my evacuation process for most of the weekend.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Last St.Patricks day I had drunk around 10 pints of Guinness and a bottle of cider, and I was rather drunk and would very usually get a hangover from drinking so much and not being sick. But inbetween going from one pub to another, me and my two friends went to the off license to get some more beer and stuff, and I randomly bought a bottle of rosé wine. Just as we got into bed to go to sleep, Ant passed out, and me and Pitman randomly talked drunk crap for a while, and I drank the bottle of wine right then before going to bed. When I woke up, I had no hangover. I'm going to try it again sometime to see if it was a fluke or if it really works.
