Hangovers

Just get straight back on it. Only real way of sorting it out.

Joking aside, I do always find having one to level off at some point during the day after a proper session usually makes me feel better.

Can be tough not to turn the one into another session though.

Bottle of lucozade in the morning. 

 

Specifically orange flavour as well ? never fails to shift my hangover.

Not when you’re struggling to even keep water down though

[Samilktray]

I honestly can't remember the last time I consumed enough alcohol to have a hangover the next day 

[Jimothy]

Something sugary like sweets, Lucozade, and a couple of glasses of water before bed and you'll be sorted. Your sugar levels are low and you're dehydrated so stands to reason topping up those elements in your system will sort you out.

[Nalis]

On the sugar note, ice cream works for me.

I often take a couple of Anadin BEFORE I go to bed and I wake up with no headache (no idea if this is dangerous or not? I could be killing brain cells without even realising), but my body still feels a bit weird and lethargic, which I can deal with, it’s the headaches that kill me I hate them. 

 

Bottle of Lucozade and a big meal usually sorts me out though - as others have said a pint of something Shit like a Carlsberg or whatever just to level off usually works too.

I haven't had a hangover for donkey's years now. The worst one I had was at my 21st party, when my drinks were totally mixed. I  was in bed for three days, and still being sick after that!  An awful memory.  

[Kopic]

My hangovers have become worse. When I wake up, my eye lids are massively swollen, banging headache and feel sick. Usually I take a couple prescription strength cocodamol to sort the headache, eat a few bags of crisps to stop feeling sick, but I am yet to find a cure for the eyes, they stay swollen all day but are fine the next. Especially bad if I have work that day (I start in the afternoon), everyone looks at me but no-one has ever asked what's up. 

[Guest MattP]

I had one the other week where my eyelid was shut and couldn't be opened, took absolutely ages, horrible feeling.

 

Disastrous one in London the other month as well, did a Thurs night 36 hour session, woke up Saturday morning and was just sick on the floor of a pub after half a pint - we got chucked out and were shouting at each other across the road before it came to blows, half 11 in the morning as well ffs. 

 

I'm giving up the booze when I hit 40. I'll be dead by 50 if I don't.

Can’t remember my last hangover and can’t say I miss em. As others have said, two paracetamol and a pint of water before bed was always my go to remedy. Then a big greasy fry up the morning after.

 

I shudder when I think back to the days I drove the next morning when clearly still over the limit. A dangerous game that was...

[Nalis]

One of my mate's swears by milk thistle before and after drinking, anyone else take it?

 

Doesnt work for me personally.

Run a teaspoon under the cold tap and then hold them on your eyes for 20 seconds.

Is that a serious answer?

yeah pretty sure it’s a myth. one of those things that people say cos one day they had it and felt a bit less rough. 

 

basically if youve drank enough the night before then you’re gonna be hungover. there is no cure. just get on with it.

I think I'd rather have a hangover than what my poor backside is going through after my indulging in some (very fine) Indian cuisine last night

[VLC86]

Good job there was a football match last night as I would have been in a whole world of pain today. Beer gin cocktails etc pre kick off.

 

My go to remedy is voming pre sleep. Went Brighton for the weekend last season and got absolutely blind on the Friday night. My last couple of memories are my mate asking me if I was ok and being unable to reply, 5 minutes later I was voming on a sea front hotels garden. One of them where you wake up half dressed sitting up in bed.

 

Not my finest hour.
