The hair of the dog
by Hour_Heat38781 week ago
To my experience (and I've been a fan of drinking for probably 15 years), this is the only cure that actually works.
by Anonymous1 week ago
I drink so little that I had to look out up lol. "Hair of the dog", short for "hair of the dog that bit you", is a colloquial expression in the English language predominantly used to refer to alcohol that is consumed as a hangover remedy (with the aim of lessening the effects of a hangover). Many other languages have their own phrase to describe the same concept.

Hangovers are a result of 2 things, to much sugar for the body to process, your body actually having withdrawals, that's why hairs of the dog makes you feel better

Unpopular opinion #2: You aren't curing a hangover. You're delaying it.
by icie901 week ago
I read one time that people who get very mild hangovers or none at all are more likely to develop alcoholism later on in life. And I believe it because I'm people. Thing is either way a person will end up feeling sick. Either they get hangovers and they avoid drinking often or the hangovers are very mild and if they have the predisposition for addiction they will eventually have a bad detox. Nobody wins with alcohol, it's poison regardless of how your body reacts to it.

Some people are just more prone to hangovers regardless of what they do to avoid one. I speak from experience because I'm like OP and get really bad hangovers ever since I started drinking at like 16. Doesn't matter how much water I drink or any other tips I try I'm still gonna get a bad hangover, and I know people that don't drink as much water as me, and take no steps to prevent a hangover, but they never get one

We don't all experience the same hangover. I see guys waking up after being drunk and be like "OMG I can't take i- oh well, I got better let's go !" More than once, did I have to stay in bed for a whole day, feeling like I was gonna die. To me, hangover isn't worth being drunk once in your life. To other, it only seems like a minor inconvenience.

I wish this was the end all be all solution. Sometimes weed makes me feel like I'm the most drunk I've ever been. I've called out sick once in the last five years and it was after a night of THC bevs and smoking. Now I just stick to the occasional 5mg gummy before bed.

Alcohol isn't worth it period. I have no idea why people are okay with the idea of putting a known toxin on their heart. On the regular. >_> But yeah dude, I agree. Alcohol is extremely overrated to me, and I'd take a good cannabis session any day.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, it only gets worse as you age. Hangovers became so debilitating even after just a few I've barely touched the stuff in the years.

I get drunk regularly and 99% of the time I'm not hungover the next day, while my flatmate, who rarely drinks, feels sick the next day even if they just had a couple of drinks. If you are used to drinking you'll very likely feel fine the next day.

Lucky for me I've never had a hang over. I drink a fair amount 2-3 nights a week. I drink a water every couple beers and that works for me. No hard liquor, don't smoke tobacco also seems to help me.

Hangziety is a bitch. This happens to me, too. Then I repeat the same mistake the next weekend. I did quit drinking for over a year and it was awesome. Then I drank again and the hangovers got worse. It gets worse with age. So if you're young it won't get easier or better.
by Legitimate_Hyena1 week ago
My tolerance for hangovers was pretty good from about 19-25 but it dropped off quickly after that. I used to be able to cure it with some ibuprofen, coffee, and a greasy breakfast. These days, all it takes is one beer and I'll wake up with a pounding head.

Hops and Gluten may be the reason your hangovers are so bad. Maybe there are alternatives so you don't have to give up getting drunk.

Agreed. I don't really drink anymore. If I do, it's only socially and I have one or MAYBE two drinks just to get buzzed and I drink a lot of water and make sure to have food with the drink. Hangovers are not worth it. Is rather just have a strawberry lemonade.

I would get so hungover at college to the point where the heart palpitations, shakes, and anxiety were definitely not worth it Now that I'm out of school I find that drinking lots of water, diet soda, and other mixers with no sugar basically prevents me from getting hungover I would still like to cut back sometime despite hardly ever feeling sick. There are many risks involved even if you don't feel them the next morning

I get you, and I feel like a lot of people won't. I didn't get bad hangovers for the longest time. I have a family history of alcoholism and was far along on that road myself. Then I started getting terrible migraines from drinking. It completely ruined drinking for me and got me to quit. People don't realize how big an effect a hangover can have on your drinking habits if you get them all the time.

Bro I ask you to consider that you suffer from migraines and alcohol is your trigger. It took me a long time to figure that out for myself and get a diagnosis. I'm a lot happier and healthier not drinking.

Drink a bunch of water (at least 2-3 glasses) and take a couple of Tylenol before bed. You'll be right as rain in the morning.

I guess I just don't understand the concept of drinking to be drunk... some alcoholic beverages have an exceptionally good taste. But, seriously, don't mix many alcohols and consider the quality of what you drink. At clubs and cheap parties the alcohol they mix into the cocktail causes at least a headache in any amount. And in cocktails you can't really taste the quality of what is in there due to all the sugar.
by Anonymous1 week ago
I would 100% agree; ever since I hit 30, my hangovers are two-day long ordeals. Drinking on a Friday night literally ruins my entire weekend. However, I recently bought these "hangover strips". You take one shortly before drinking and they're supposed to eliminate hangovers. I was skeptical, but they work pretty well. Normally, 2 or 3 cocktails would cause me to be groggy/dizzy the next day. If I take a strip before the two or three drinks, I feel virtually NOTHING the next day. I don't recommend drinking in general, but we all have vices. If you're going to drink, take a strip beforehand.

Goodys BC powder man. It's ve never met a hangover that stuff didn't get rid of in ten mins flat. Not just no more pain, literally bright eyed and bushy tailed.

You can't just drink whatever you want and expect everything to be fine the next day The lower carb the better, they make zero carb seltzers, or you could make low carb cocktails with good quality vodka, significantly reducing chances and severity of a hangover. And eating healthy alongside that is just as important, you just shouldn't mix a bunch of sugar with alcohol, bad combo Taking a tums when you're done drinking or the next day can certainly help too

No hangovers gang, stand up! 🖐️ Beer and wine will always make you more hungover than hard liquor because of all the extra sugar. Waters always help, and so do electrolyte drinks like Gatorade, pedialyte or, my personal favorite, liquid IV. But for some reason, I'm a mutant and I can do none of these things and I always wake up feeling right as rain. (39M, been like this my whole life 🤷🏻♂️)

by Longjumping-Fee1 week ago
Most symptoms of a hangover are from dehydration. Your body can expel 4 times more liquid than the one alcoholic beverage you consumed. For every drink you have it's suggested to also have a drink of water. Even if not 1-for-1 you should make efforts throughout the night to consume glasses of water too. But drinking isn't everybody's thing do what makes you happy, if drinking isn't it than drinking isn't it.

For bad hangovers, get outside and do something active. Its super hard because you feel terrible, but it makes it go away 10x faster. I'm not particular outdoorsy, but I make sure to go do something outside every time I get a little too drunk.

Drinking water will help with most hangovers. Part of the hangover is dehydration due to your body processing the alcohol. Put a glass of water by your bed before you start drinking/go out. Since you say you have rather severe headache and hangover what are may not be as effective as it is with most people. The trick with drinking is to do it slowly. We only feel the good part of getting drunk as our alcohol level increases. Once you plateau it's all downhill feeling. So the longer you can maintain the increase in alcohol the better you'll feel. Pace out your drinking. And no you don't need to get blinding drunk. That my friend, is called alcoholism.

Yeah, once I hit 30…almost overnight…my hangovers because SIGNIFICANTLY worse. Regardless of the amount of water I drink before or after. At this point, if I want to get drunk one night, I can almost guarantee I'll be useless for the next two days. Back in the day I could get hammered, smell nose candy til 5:00 in the morning, then wake up at 7:30 and pull an 8-hr shift in a kitchen all day…and be fine to do it all again the next night. If I did that now, I might be dead lol It really is mainly about age.
