I have a terrible hang over right now. Its of the banging headache, sandpaper mouth variety. Not feeling sick but just yucky. Why do we suffer different levels of hang over? Do you not get hang overs at all? What do you find to be the best cure?

I find starting a thread in the void that is Saturday morning, then frantically clicking refresh every 30 seconds or so will only leave you disappointed...

Personally, I'd go for a sausage sandwich

RocknRollisalive said:

I might do but I have no bread and they're pork and apple. I like the porb but not the apple because it makes the sausage sweet.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

...Pork and Apple

...Savoury and Sweet

RocknRollisalive said:

I know, whats the deal with 'Sweet and Sour'? Is it for numptys who can't make up their minds?

JDINTERACTIVE said:

Numptys... Word of the day ...already

Oh....and...erm, yes

...Sultanas in Curries

RocknRollisalive said:

Oh man! Only some numpty, loser brand like 'Iceland' puts sultanas in curries. Again what gives? Apples aswell?! What chuff wants fruit in a tikka?!

JDINTERACTIVE said:

I can't believe you started me on Apples Apples in friggin salads and sultanas and walnuts

Hows the hangover?

RocknRollisalive said:

Its hangovertastic mate.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

They're the best kind

For me... Lots of Water... Strong black sweet coffee... and Greasy food

I'm always amazed that Alka Seltzer acually work too

i figured out in my early 20s that the best cure it to NOT get one

If you have HAVE to be active today, I suggest eating an apple () drink some juice and water, avoid anything uber greezy. After you've gotten some nutritious food in, THEN drink some coffee to get some energy and go on about the day.

But, if you don't have to be active forget everything I said above and eat as much cheese and salt and grease as you can and live on soda today

In that case, I'm a little surprised I didn't get a phone call last night.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

sleep, painkillers (Anadin Ultra) and loads of orange juice.

Hope you're feeling better soon

Alcohol and pain killers? Your body is obviously still recovering and you want to give your liver another blow?

Water and lots of it. That's why it's best to already drink lots of it before you go to bed so your hangover will be minimal when you wake up.

I've only had a hangover once, but I called all of the heavy drinkers I know that morning and begged for help.

Fluids. NSAIDs can help, but they are really much more effective if you take them before bed the night before. I found a bowl of tomato soup to be the only thing I could bear to eat, and it made me feel much better.

I don't drink alcohol
