So after downing a bottle of some pretty awful wine that had been marinating in my cabinet without a stopper for four or five months :eww: I've come across the worst hangover I've had since freshman orientation. Needless to say i'm not making it any better by staring at a glowing screen, but I feel too much like a bag of **** >_< (and too sleepy due to the various remedies donated by buddies to fix the problem) to do anything else. Has anyone found the mystical homeopathic 'hangover remedy'... (that you've tried).

the thought and smell of more alcohol makes my stomach turn, like the thought or smell of more vodka after a hard night of...vodka.

You're too late. The only way to stop a hangover is to drink at least a pint of water before falling asleep (passing out).

^ Or more. But the sentiment is correct. The only way to cure a hangover is to prevent it from happening in the first place. For every drink, have a glass of water. Keep hydrated.

From a certified medical opinion: Dude....your screwed.
Kidding. God knows we all skip the preventative stage of avoiding a hangover and just get plowed.

Thats besides the point. THIS is the mystical cure: Alchohol equals increased unrinary output, which leads to dehydration and loss of electrolytes. Take 2 tylenol, a glass of orange juice, and a monster drink, like a red bull or something. That will give you some relief. Instant relief required intake of liquid oxygen via a non rebreather mask that I doubt you have access to.....

Just don't drink and drive. I've seen too many deaths caused this way.

Take a needle & jab it into your gums. It will make you totally forget about your hangover.

Or my personal favourite... go back to sleep. But I've never had a hangover bad enough to make me try any of those disgusting medical remedies, & not for lack of trying, believe me.

Yoghurt works really welll. But you have to find some Greek, non-sweetened yoghurt and then eat quite a lot of it. And never befoul wine by leaving it in a cabinet without a stopper. Once opened wine should be chilled and kept from oxidizing. Anyway, try turning the lights off and keeping noise to minimum to help with the nausea and pain. Good luck mate.

Also eat when you drink.
A hangover is caused by dehydration, so you need to think a bit and keep hydrated. Then no hangover.

Nope. I've gotten drunk, gone to sleep, woke up the next morning like as if nothing happened.

EDIT - I've gotten drunk and then followed it up by smoking some weed. Too good. Your body goes COMPLETELY numb.

The best advice that I have for a hang over besides the obvious don't get one is.... black coffee, hot pepper juice, a little tobasco sauce, and finally something to bite back on when you swallow it. This little drink does work (I've done it before.) but it is as hot as a mutha and might cause you to harm yourself while attempting to find some water.

If you really have a problem drinking, a good way to help prevent you drinking too much is to drink nothing but tequila suicides. See how many you can manage before you wish you had never been born.

Yeah, no. Addiction is too good. Without addiction we wouldn't have had fine success stories like Robert Downey Jr.(alcohol) and Lindsay Lohan(cocaine and alcohol) blazing the front pages of our newspapers and magazines. Without addiction, celebrities suck.

Would you feel it "too good" if you dad always got drunk and smacked you and your mother around? I doubt it.

If you drink plenty of water your body will more quickly flush out the ethyl rubbish obviously.

A couple of slices of toast (wholemeal bread, without butter or any other spread) ASAP after you awaken, same goes for stomach problems on shrooms - dry weeabix or shredded wheat also work.

My grandpa died from liver failure due to being an alcoholic and my dad used to get drunk and say stuff to my mom. Hasn't really affected me in the slightest. Sorry if this is what went down in your trailer home during your traumatic childhood.

Truth. We had a hangover thread before, and LD offered this advice. I've followed it every time I've gone drinking since. It's common sense when you think about it.

But you drank [that crappy old wine] anyway? You deserve that hangover. Enjoy every minute of it.

Also truth :P

there are a few "remedies" depending on how you feel.
The first is get drunk again that is if you think you can handle more to drink, and you will end up with a worse hangover the next day.
The second is drink lots of water folled by have some orange juice, then you should eat something. once you can eat food and it stays in your stomach you'll be okay, I recommend toast with a little butter, it's easy on the stomach.
Take some Vitamin C it helps.
Or you can try to sleep it off, that can work too.

That was my thought, but since it sounds like what he drank was vinaigre, I can sort of understand why he'd be messed up.

Mind you, it wouldn't even be a full bottle of wine - it had been opened already. So if you assume somene took a standard drink out of it, he really got wasted on a half liter or so of wine. Which would make him a lightweight, if it wasn't for the whole vinegar thing. I have no idea what a vinegar hangover is like. Thankfully.

Desslock wins as usual water is the way to go. I saw a girl get so drunk she was vomiting, but because she was drinking water the whole time too (as well as after the vomiting) she had NO hangover.

1) poweraide the day after will help ease the pain ((NOT GATORAIDE!! too much salt in gatoraide, thats not what you want)), because you need to keep hydrated ((preferably while drinking...)) but poweraide is like ann uber hydrator, and it will speed up the process.
2) greasy nasty breakfast food...i'm talkin' sausage, over easy eggs...i've heard from some friends of mine that after they've upchucked, they felt better...i dont know why, but eh...that one may be for a select few.
3) DONT DRINK COFFEE
4) eat lots of breads when you drink too from now on ((PIZZAAAA!!)), that will help you retain the water you drink, will absord the alcohol you drink so that you wont have morning grogginess, while keeping you're cookies down

^whoa!!

As for Desslocks idea, it is correct. You don't have to drink water while you are drinking alcohol for this to work. You can drink it before you go partying (that's what I do) and also after. At least 3 bottles throughout the day before you drink and more if you are doing physical activity.

Bananas man, bananas. Potassium is your very best friend when you have a hangover. They can be tough to eat when you're seriously hungover to the point of nausea etc, but if you can keep them down you'll be sitting pretty.

but the point of eating cantaloupe, watermelon, or bananas after they were in the freezer is because it won't provoke your nausea.

These two methods I know are sure things: either drink a whole beer or a half right after you wake up (dunno how it works but it works :thumbsup: ) or (and this may seem disgusting) swallow an uncooked egg and bear with it (try not to vomit :naughty:) and you'll be fine afterwards.

Okay, you actually tried that? What in the world would even posses you to try sallowing an uncooked egg for a hangover remedy? Blah, I would just take the hangover. :x

For when you're drunk: Eat persimmon. A Japanese businessman told me.

Persimmon is a fruit, found on the East Coast and a some in the South. It's very sweet and a good astringent for the body. Here's what it looks like:
