    After a long night on the aul hooch, ye often find yerself hanging to bits the next morning. I, myself, rarely get hangovers anymore, when I do I find nothing will cure it except a few panadol and back to bed, I can't even stomach a sugary drink or water or toast.

    So fellow boardsies, what cures the aul morning after for ye??

    Sorry mods if this has been done already, feel free to lock / merge.

    A big fry, a shower, plenty of water, and get out of the house into the fresh air.

    water, and plenty of it. a hangover is dehydration and your body being poisoned bu alcahol. the headache is your brain shrivelling up and pulling away from the inside of your skull so drink plenty of water


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,817 ✭✭✭howamidifferent


    Lots of water ....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 947 ✭✭✭zef


    "A hair of the dog that bit ye". That would kill me though, so:
    Paracetamol and lots of vits and herbal tea, some toast too.

    Half a dozen neuron plus nothing quite like a codine come down to take you're mind off a hangover.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    you could also try-

    a scottish breakfast (a glass of water and a paracetamol)

    a farmers breakfast (a glass of water and a shite)

    or a scousers breakfast (a pint of lager and the leftovers of last night's takeaway)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,191 ✭✭✭CardBordWindow


    A pint of water, followed by some nice tea and toast(or a fry if I can get my hands on it). Depending on severity of the headache, either some paracetamol, or morphine.

    Hula hoops and fanta. Only cure, besides not drinking so much you die a slow death the following day

    You're supposed to drink 1.5x in water for every unit of alcohol you consume in order to stay hydrated, and a hangover is a result of the brain being dehydrated. So usually when I get home I'll by multiplying what I drank by 1.5. Polishing off 6/7 pints of water in the space of a half hour isn't fun but I definitely am not as bad the next morning. A vitamin C tablet in one of the pints seems to work well too.

    Well Done ! Not many people can self-administer let alone want to.

    I used to never get hangovers, literally not even the slightest headache after a massive piss-up. It lasted up til my early 20s. I wish I knew what it was because I get them now. Maybe just youth and fitness, I didn't have any remedies or special breakfasts

    think the poll needs Hangover Shag option...

    Get out of bed. Worst thing you can do is toss and turn in the leaba feeling sorry for yourself.

    Sugary tea, fry up and soluble disprin for me.

    I used to sleep in till two or three in the day after a session. Discovered though that it effects your sleep patterns the following night and you almost feel hungover the following day too. So now I have taken to getting up early-ish and keeping myself hydrated and well-fed all day. It has seemed to have done the trick.

    The "cure" on a Sunday afternoon seems also to be effective.

    Yeah, I'd most likely die of water poisoning soon after doing that

    Lots of water before you hit the sack works best for me.
    Never had a hangover since.

    Does anyone else not really get hung over no matter how which they drink?

    I might wake up a bit groggy but I'm doing perfect after I've eaten and had a pint of milk/water

    Give it 5 -10 years and you'll get hangovers.

    Do you often piss the bed after a feed of pints and cant figure out why?

    In a bid to combat hangovers, I've taken to drinking larger shandies. The healing properties of red lemonade work wonders. Granted, it does make me bladder work overtime but hey! I can stretch 4 cans of Bud into about 10 drinks!
