Re: Compound hangovers
I’ve pretty much given up drinking due to the ferocity of my hangovers. It needs to be a proper special occasion for me to happily ruin the following 2 days.

Aye, I stopped doing MDMA because the week of mind crushing anxiety and panic attacks made it not worth it, now booze has started to do the same.
One day hangovers are fine but if it rolls over into two it starts to get pretty bad and if I have to work with a bad hangover I’m a mess.
Means all the nice spirits I buy last a bit longer though, I’m less inclined to arse the whole bottle in one sitting like I used to .

That's basically the extent of it. Problem is I seem to find it more and more difficult to turn the taps off, the older I get.
Dryness is the way forward for the foreseeable.

Are you new to drinking? I thought everyone knew that the 'solution' to hangovers was basically prevention - Drink a LOT of water being going to bed. I mean, a couple of litres or so. Yes you'll be up a lot for a pee, but you won't get a hangover.

Re: Compound hangovers
That's a one-night-of-drinking solution. I'm talking four days on the lash near-constantly, where you essentially have blacked out by the end of each day so such adult solutions are simply not an option
That doesn't read too well, does it.

I sometimes think I should knock it on the head for a bit but it’s the only thing I have any real talent for. It’d be a shame to waste that .

This plus 2 ibuprofen before sleep and the world is a better place.
The rest of you are just DIW
Re: Compound hangovers
If you have the presence of mind to drink water and take preventative medication before you go to bed, you haven't drunk enough to get a proper hangover HTH.

I don't think I've properly drank on two consecutive nights since 2003...

I'd be no good after the first 4am finish, so god knows how you managed to keep going.
The only solution is to become an actual alcoholic, constantly topping up your booze levels so the hangover never starts.

Re: Compound hangovers
Trouble is an 'actual' alcoholic can't do anything without a drink when they wake up so arent really that concerned about a small head pain

Re: Compound hangovers
A hangover is mostly dehydration. Your body is short on sugar, salt and water. The obvious solution is to alternate dirty martinis, Daiquiris and lager.JLv3.0 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 14, 2018 12:50 pmWas just thinking that, not a cluespeedingfine wrote: ↑Tue Aug 14, 2018 12:08 pm Everyone missing the fact that this is a several day bender should be banned by Matty for idiocy

Re: Compound hangovers
You have to respect the fact that many people on the forum don't drink much because it means they can't go out for a midnight drive on a Saturday night when the roads are nice and clear.JLv3.0 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 14, 2018 12:50 pmWas just thinking that, not a cluespeedingfine wrote: ↑Tue Aug 14, 2018 12:08 pm Everyone missing the fact that this is a several day bender should be banned by Matty for idiocy

Re: Compound hangovers
It is interesting to see who knows what I'm on about, I have to confess.
Re: Compound hangovers
Thankfully, the mates I used to hit it hard with have all remained on my level. We don't see each other much but tend to go away for a weekend together, it usually consists of a hardcore first night then a tired / hungover night with a meal and a couple of quiet drinks. If there's a night three it might be a 75% night.
