Foreign beer doesnt tend to be full of chemicals/additives which all contribute to giving you the shit feeling in the morning!!!!

Fuck!

After listening to people on here i'm thinkin our lass has a point

My Limit as agreed with the misses is

1 bottle of wine

4 pint can's of stella

4 440ml can's of guiness

Per night.

Is that just me or does anyone have the same or does that seem a lot?
And that's me cutting down.

I'm not an alco.

Honest

Drink makes you sleepy/drowsy towards the end of the night so you tend to nod off but you will often wake up early because alcohol disturbs your sleep, people who drink regularly don't sleep as well as those who don't drink. It also causes shallow breathing which can cause you to have a crap sleep also. Try it, stop drinking for 4-6 weeks and you will sleep like a baby compared to before.

Hangover/headache is caused as said above by dehydration so the old school method of taking on at least 2 pints before bed does work or a litre (4 pints or so) if you can manage it. Bread also is meant to work but will make you a fatty just as drinking beer/lager does. Similar to drugs like speed or E, if you have a good bit of food before bed you'll be better off but often you won't want to eat a seed.

Myself i find drinking spirits is far easier on yourself the next day than beer is. Drink half a bottle+ of Tequilla or JD and you'll be pretty much laughing the next day without much water, maybe a bit moody due to the drug aspect but you won't feel like shit, hydrate properly with spirits and you'll be bouncing out of bed. Particularly Tequilla and lemonade and you'll be fine. Vodka tends to be harsher the next day although having it with OJ helps.

Eating food the next day makes you feel better too as it gives you energy and also fills the system, cornish pastyswork like a charm the next day if you can't find an English brekkie.

Beer is cheap and easier but it makes you shitter and fatter. (doesn't just slow the breakdown of food/attack liver but has higher calories to boot)Plus you're taking on much more CL wise. I also find spirits,wine, beer get me pissed in different slightly different ways, anyone else find this?

I do think that if i could drink water before bed, eat quite a bit then drinkwater through the night id be fine, but if was sober enough to do that then we wouldnt be having this discussion as i only get like this when im really hammered like....
i do the water... does help a bit but still suffer and just want to die! feel really down and can't keep still.... even watching tv my legs might be twitching! must be about to croak it!

other shit thing is...i always wake up really early! even if not gone to bed til 4ish i ll be awake around 8/9 ! almost like my body is saying 'oi, wake up, you rnot going to miss that feeling like shit, i'm going to make you pay all day'


I suffer from the wide awake really early as well which is a real pisser cos usually if i have taken a good fill of drink i know im going to be rough the next day and have planned ahead allowing me to lay in bed until midday or something like that, then bang.... WIDE awake by half six in the morning

Cant get back to sleep no matter how hard i try and end up getting up early and just lounging around feeling sorry for myself, ususally with the wife saying... its your own fault for drinking so much !!!!

food at the end of the night.... then orange juice and water if yo ucan stomach it! they best thing i find is to eat kebab, then orange juice, then water by the side for when you wake up! if you dont have o-j then try some cranberry juice or eat tomatoes! they help! and if you can get to lidl they have a drink called "ace drink" its full of carrot orange and lemon! thats good!

I always have a packet of Ready Salted Square (other brands are avaliable!!) and a large glass of ice cold Tropicana.

Have heard that the body loses a lot of salt during the night and this causes the aches and pains. So it's a good idea to replace the lost salt. You also need to re-hydrate yourself so lots of water is good.

A few lines of sniff to finish the night off and you'll be right as rain in the morning.

...until you run out, realise you haven't slept and go running round like some kind of crack whore until you make the call to get some more in...
IME charlie will just make you feel worse the next day, not better. (or that might just be a total lack of self control on my part)

personally i very very rarely get hangovers.. less so as i've got older and have drunk more. drinking a pint of milk before going to bed used to minimise the chances of being hung over.
i seem to increase the chances of getting them if i mix beers... for example, if i stick to stella (which used to give me the headache from satan himself the next day) all night, i'll be fine, but if we're on a pub crawl and i end up mixing stella/kronenbourg/carling/etc then it 99% of the time fucks me up really badly.

I knew that, nah seriously i did but meant 2 litre as i keep mine in a litre jug in the frigde as i don't drink tea or coffee just water and milk when not drinking. I guess i was more battered than i thought at 3:46am.

Iam glad iam not the only one.
I get them just like you do Lee.

Always feel SHIT, and i ALWAYS throw up a few times in the morning. Cant eat food till about 3pm but then feel ok again.

Drunk water before i went to bed and it did help but i always forget when iam pissed

Vodka Redbull and Stella give the worse hangovers, though JD and coke give me nothing what so ever.

Drinking milk before you go out does nothing for me either which is supposed to help.

Doesnt help i normally have to work every saturday

I find if you don't mix up the beers to much, take plenty of water to bed and drink it everytime you wake in the night.

Eat when you get in and drink some water and stay up for half an hour or so to let it go down.

Then either, get up early, get some grub and grin and bear it till it passes - keep drinking th fluids.

or my favourite, stay in bed until atleast mid day and sleep it off

I drink bud and it kicks your head in the next day aswell as giving you a bad ass

I'm the same I always feel sick as a dog the next day (but never have a headache!)

I usually have a good pint of water before bed, and often some food, but when you have a kebab then get in to bed and the room starts spinning you know you are in for a bad night

If anyone finds a cure let me know! I've practically stopped getting drunk because the pain the next day just isn't worth it at all.
