Thumbs down Hangover cures

I feel like shit right now and nothing I do will make it any better, so I need input.

What's your go-to recipe for near-instant recovery?



Holy fuckballs. Can a mod please move this to the GCMB?

There's a great place down the road from me where if you tell the owner that you're hungover your breakfast comes out with a shot of ouzo. I didn't believe in hair of the dog until I tried it.

We usually refer to those as "Reparaturseidel" (with a Seidel usually being 0,33L of beer).

I'll spend my day at work, so sleep is not an option. I'm not hungover very often, but when I am I usually just stay in bed until I feel better.

Alka-seltzer. It's the only thing that ever worked for me. Then lots of tea, coffee, water.

If before bed I know I've had too much I usually drink 32 oz of gatorade (or something with electrolytes) and I take a double dose of Ibuprofren.

If I don't do that I've found that the morning after Aspirin and Caffeine help a lot.

probably dont want to hear it now but before drinking i'll do it on a full stomach, drink gatorade, water or coconut water in between. prevention is key or whatever.
.
only way to cure a hangover is blasting your brains out pretty much. fried chicken and pepto bismol and gatorade helps me .. a little

my favorite breakfast the morning after is a pile of scrambled eggs, sausage and potatoes/hashbrowns covered in cheese. Plus plenty of salt and Tobasco Buffalo sauce.

I can't eat when I'm hungover. I never get headaches, though. I just feel like throwing up until about noon-2pm. There is really no cure other than sleep or more alcohol. I had to wake up and go to the airport after a long night of drinking (WORST IDEA EVER, BY THE WAY) and I thought I was going to die. I got to the airport bar, had one sip of a bloody mary, and all was right with the world again.

But I try not to get hungover anymore. I find I can moderate myself easiest by drinking wine. I know that 2 glasses is awesome, 3 is pushing it, and 4 is BLAAAAH

Coming home from NOLA the day after the Sugar Bowl was the absolute worst. I was still drunk on the way to the Jackson, MS airport (I was not driving), but once I got to the security line, it became an absolute nightmare. And I was there really early.

OH AND I WAS ONLY 20 SO I COULDN'T DRINK TO HELP IT.

Being hungover in airports is so awful. So so so awful.

It really is probably the worst feeling in the world. The last thing you want to do when hungover is 1) stand up (in line) for long periods of time 2)be around other human beings 3)be in a confined space with inconvenient access to a bathroom 4) be in a moving object

I have flown hung over maybe... 4 or 5 times in my life? One time my bf and I woke up still drunk, knew we HAD to get to the airport ASAP or we wouldn't be able to. We went there, stood in line (at which point I started to feel the hangover), and got our tickets changed to whatever the first flight home was. I couldn't even stand up in line; I sat on the floor while he did all the talking. Then we get to the gate and they say "boarding group A for San Diego!" and I look at him like WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO?!! It was supposed to be a direct flight to Sacramento! But in our haste we booked a flight to Sacramento that went through San Diego, which is like a 1.5 hour addition. I ended up throwing up in the bathroom of the plane. I thought "this is what the bottom feels like"

And I used to get hangovers all the time in college when I was a young strapping lady. My hangovers haven't really gotten any worse as I've aged, thankfully.

hangover cure: weed+greasy food. the weed will curb the nausea long enough to get some food in there. and yeah lots of water and advil or whatnot.

Without a doubt. Edibles are my go to. Follow it up with a blast of b vitamins to flush and a green machine naked juice. solid

Yeah I've lived here for about 6 years now! Do you live in Sacramento? I thought you lived near Chicago for some reason.
