OK, so not only do I like to smoke a bit (which makes me go crazy), I also like to drink a bit. As I'm approaching my mid life crisis I am suffering more and more from the after effects of a night on the piss.

What are your favorite hangover remedies?

My first thing in the morning drink is a Red Eye minus the raw egg. Basically a 2/3 pint of lager + 1/3 tomato juice. Gives the stomach something light to work on, with lots of salt, a bit of the hair of the dog... if you like tomato juice/V8 this is the shit. Honestly.

If I need immediate resuscitation then a stiff and spicy Bloody Mary is the solution.

If I am so far gone that I need to break out the meds, 800-1200mg of Ibuprofen every 2 hours til the pain goes away.

Yours?
 


A Vodka Tonic with a twist of lime always gets my day going. Try it out, only thing I know that cures a hangover in under 5 minutes.

Edit: didn't see this:

You have the right idea. Sooner or later you're going to have to figure something out though. This only perpetuates the process.

And in all honesty, I can only drink 1 night a weekend, anymore I am worthless.
 
take some milk thistle extract before you start drinking and some more in the morning. that tends to take the edge off my hangovers.

I drink a glass of water in between every drink. Never had a hangover.

I take it you've never been drunk either......


Anyways, I soak up a lot of water. I eat some breakfast, doesn't matter what. If that doesn't solve it then I choke back some ibuprofen. If I still feel loopy I go run for a few miles. Sometimes I do all that in a different order. The run always works.
 
well my usual routine used to be:

arrive home between 3-6am and grab myself a vitamine tablet. drink 1 liter of water before even going into bed.

then repeat the water when waking up including a nice shower. After that enjoy the drunken pics on fb with orange juice.

headache gone. me happy.
 
I've never actually tried this, but I have a friend who works in medicine, who has said that thiamine tablets are the way to go. Apparently you can get these bad boys in batches of 100 for $5.

Anyway, if you have one of these every 4 drinks or so, then it eliminates the hangover the next day.

But I've never been that organised.

So for me (when I'm at work), it's a tea, something hot and greasy, spring rolls from the corner shop, or a sausage roll.

Then hide away as much as possible and avoid talking to people.

By the way, Hi, I'm dan.

More of the same always does it for me.
 
I drink as much water as I can before going to sleep (but I don't drink regularly, so my stomach lining isn't eroded). This also works after physical activity, to avoid muscle pain the next day. Activated charcoal also helps, it filters out the toxins and is totally harmless.
 
1 liter of water and 1/4-1/2 bottle Nyquil before bed. The bigger you are, the more nyquil you need. Guaranteed to keep you sleeping and wake up fresh! Increase water if you can handle it.
 
8 glasses of water -- once, I puked 3 times, and, had 5 hours of sleep and I was perfectly fine.
 
Lots of water works unless I have a touch of the alcohol poisoning, in which case the only thing that will work is time and spewing alot.

I usually have a bunch of water and stumble to the nearest McDonalds and have one of their Sausage McMuffin's if it is still morning when I wake up or a cheeseburger if it isnt. Though I wouldn't recommend that for the Americans, the meat on your McDonalds is awful.

So yeah, water + greasy food. I have never tried hair of the dog though
 
sure fire way to stop/cure hangovers -

bust a nut, eat 2 grill cheese sandwhiches, take 500mg darvacet with a bottle of orange gatorade.

If you wake up with a hangover, repeat the steps above or smoke a bowl.
