HANGOVERS! :o I'm not feeling very well today and it is all because I probably got a bad cube of ice in one of my too many drinks Yesty. Now I was wondering if, in the interests of the welfare of fellow forumites during the festering season, you could advise on how to recover from aforesaid hangover. :o
For starters, turn the brightness of your monitor waaaaayyyyyyyyyy down.
That's it.
Betcha feel better already.
Heaps of water, Chris. Your feeble brain is dehydrated, which is why you have that headache.
Get some sugars and salts into you as well. Vegemite, although banned in the USA, is still an excellent source of Vitamin B and will inject some into your severely depleted system.
Once you've done all that and it does nothing, go to the fridge and crack open a cold one. Nothing like a hair of the dog to kick start the liver again. ;)
Go find and oxygen bottle and get it into you. Fire brigade, RAAF Base or maybe a hospital. We used to use the CFA BA on a Sunday morning, the ones that were to be returned that is.
Can't advise how to recover from one, but there is a sure fire to avoid a hangover.......STAY DRUNK. :D
washing down my vitamin Bs' and my second Vegemite sanger with a Bloody Mary at the moment..... survival may not be an option!
Exactly, you need a hair of the dog.
That's one part of the equation I never figured out... I can give some good pointers on how to get one, but not get rid of it :)
(A fresh greasy hamburger and a Slurpee from 7-11 works wonders though)
Hopefully it's too late now but for next time, the ONLY cure for a hangover (apart from another beer) is a bacon and egg roll with lots of pepper and BBQ sauce.
drink a heap of water, go down the beach and dig a large hole and when its full of water sit in it and breath deeply. (WITH YOUR EYES SHUT). :rolleyes:
I share an office with a bloke who has a similar recipe, try a toasted ham, cheese, onion, tomato and deepfried potato scallop sandwich with lashings of barbecue sauce.Quote:

Don't drink, it works for me.:D :D :D :D :D
As Felder has said, only if Im going to hit the ssip drah I drink lots of water before, during, and after, it actually works.
Al :p
I try to have something to eat and drink a couple of glasses of water before I finish the big night - not that this actually happens any more btw :(
Preferably something easy like a few slices of vegemite on toast i.e.that doesn't involve sharp instruments :rolleyes:
The next morning I go for a mixed fruit juice, and then a big greasy stodgy breakfast.
cheers

You need to prepare a hangover kit "before" you get on the turps and put it on your bedside table so theirs a slim chance you will take it before you pass out.
Drink a 1.25lt bottle of water and two vitamin B tabs and three table spoons of honey (to raise the blood sugar level and stop that horrible dehydration and head bangin you get next day) and when you wake up a big glass of gatoraid with two berrocas in it to wash down 4 panadoles and you will be feelin fit as a fiddle and ready to get stuck into it all over again;)
Yeah, it's sad when a bloke remains sober and maintains his dignity. I mean, how's he going to spend his time the next day if he doesn't have any apologies to make :DQuote:

Absolutely right. The first mouthful is a challenge but once that's gone down, you start to feel better and the hangover should disappear.Quote:

Don't get hangovers anymore....drink heaps.....but don't get 'em.
My secret will go to the grave with me....along with my enlarged liver.

I have the perfect thing for a hangover..
Drink heaps of alcohol.
Every time I do that I get a hangover. Guaranteed.
How do you cure it, more alcohol:D:D
Just remember a hangover is the wrath of grapes.
i had a killer of a hangover last week end a meat pie and and one of those sports type drinks did the trick ,they are full of electralites and rehydrate you very quickly also next year buy ya beer before december, this time of year with beer production is in top gear the beer doesn't spend enough time in the vats and are bottled slightly green thats why alot of people get crook this time of the year, well thats my theory just some thing to think about next time your hugging the dunny bowl with your sphinkter in ya throat:o
Listening in to a conversation a friend was having with one of his sons friends. He swears to have Cream de-month (sorry spelling) and lemonade ?? This 67 year old bloke gives it a fair crack when he goes out,
and pulls up ok the next day??
Eating's cheating! :pQuote:

You've all got it wrong, it's not the alcohol causing the problem, it's the sleep.
I felt alright when I went to bed:rolleyes:
A dead givaway of a bad night and ugly morning are the bedspins as you hit the cot.
Best way to avoid it is to pass out and have someone else chuck you into the cot.
luckily, VERY luckily I didn't chuck in the cot! Feeling much better today which surprises me as I thought today would be a good day for organising my funeral....Quote:

Had my first one at Edinburgh, forgotten when the last one was, bloody awful feeling though as you just know it is going to get worse, we used to call them Helicopters.Quote:
