I am a little drunk. How can I bes t avouid getting a hanbgover in the morning? What is the best way? on that note, what causres a hangover? I onve hear thjat it has to do with dehydration. is this the Conplete story? I am going to bed. I am sorry. Oh God but I am sorry.
On the off-chance that you are still awake: drink water. Lots of water. To combat the dehydration.
And have a bottle of water ready next to the bed for when you wake up at night.
Not yet you aren’t but you probably will be when you wake up ;).
Dehydration is definitely a component of hangovers. Before going to bed drink a large glass of water. This isn’t usually something you want to do when drunk but try and make yourself anyway. You might consider taking two aspirin to go with that.
I have also heard the drinking drains your body of certain vitamins and that replacing them might help. I have a vague recollection it was one of the vitamin B complexes but I’m not sure. I do remember, upon being told that, trying to take a vitamin before drinking but I also remember not thinking it helped at all. Although who knows…maybe I would have been worse without taking it.
In the end if you play you’re gonna pay. Most of these things will only mitigate a hangover and you can still be quite miserable the next day regardless of what you try. Once awake drink more water, take more aspirin, eat some fresh fruit (or drink fruit juice) and get some salt back in your system (salt helps retain water). I was always fond of peanuts…protein and salt.
Best of luck!
The BEST way to avoid a hangover is to not get drunk. I came up with this little trick after YEARS of field research and found it not only fool-proof, but the only guarantee. Of course, it’s not much fun.:rolleyes:

Don’t post drunk.

This topic has been covered recently, so I’ll close this thread and direct further comment to the earlier thread: How can I get rid of this hangover?

Purely anecdotal: One night as an experiment I had a glass of water for every glass of wine of the same volume. It had no noticible effect. I was just as hungover the next day as if I had done nothing.
Vomiting before you go to bed seems to help.
I know that’s not Conplete, sorry.
