A big, greasy fry-up is what you need.

Breakfast roll, bottle of coke and get down to the local for a few afternoon cure pints and watch the soccer.

How can this thread have gone so far without mention of the fear. Those that do not know the fear will never know the pain.

Good gods, did you eat the pitch in your inebriation?

You'll need to replace all those grass and soil nutrients with sausages, rashers and black pudding.

Lots and lots of water will cure you.

Hangovers are basically caused by dehydration - alcohol is a diuretic , your head hurts because your brain tissue is fluid depleted. Get to the tap, op.

Sounds like alcohol poisoning. Nasty business.

Small sips of water and some toast maybe.

Gaggser

Having the awful violent scutters on the Jax now

Hang on in there. By 6 pm you'll be grand! Keep sipping water.

CINCLANTFLT

Hangover fap, don't even wipe it up... back to sleep...

Duff

Chicken fillet roll, Lucozade sport and a thunder-fap and you'll be good as new.

I don't buy that Candie. Water never helped me out. I feel as bad as Gaggser but as Samaris said a fry up and a few pints always do the trick (even if the first pint is like hell to get down)

One of the worst symptoms of a hangover I find is that your ability to continue suppressing thoughts about depressing things as you were doing before you began drinking is hugely diminished and they loom much worse over you while you are trying to cope with the physical effects of the hangover in addition.

As far as superficial cures go: I find a chicken fillet roll, cup of sugary tea, bottle of lucozade citrus clear, bar of plain chocolate like a twirl. Takes the edge off, especially the tea I find.

Candie works for irish water, don't fall for her nonsense op. A breakfast roll and banana milk will sort you.

pappyodaniel

Pint of water containing a berocca, paracetamol and sachet of of dioralyte will help the physical symptoms....then do your best not to wallow in your own misery bubble and get out of the house if even just down to the shop for 10 minutes.

Best of luck Champ.

Get out for some fresh air and re-hydrate yourself.







Walk down the off licence, cured.

Often a symptom of Guinness followed by Tequila.

Or so I am told.

You've obviously never been poisoned to the degree that you cant even keep water down. Shudder@#neveragain

Mint Sauce

I have been well informed that my local Tesco had Good fellas pizzas at half price. That's my dinner sorted to soak up the last of the alcohol.

pgj2015

oxtail cup a soup, scrambled eggs and rashers in a toasted sandwich with brown sauce. cup of tea and kit kat followed by a maxi twist.

TerrorFirmer

Just keep drinking water, it will feel rough at first but by the evening you'll be feeling grand. When I'm hungover it's usually a big share pack of salt and vinegar crisps/pringles with several pints of water.

Dr Crayfish

If you're looking for a cure OP I'm sure you know by now there is none and that you have to ride it out for the next day or two. Or start drinking again but that only postpones the misery and pain.

Ally Dick

I'm dying also. Looking forward to lying on the sofa to watch the Ryder Cup at 5....might dial a pizza as well....

Los Lobos

Meanie crisps are best enjoyed when hungover, seriously

I've always known "the cure" was a crock of shít and just an excuse to do more drinking but this explanation confirms it. Drinking more alcohol to cure dehydration?

I do also think that a lot of hangovers is tiredness too, as drunken sleep is crappy sleep.

Noveight

Lucozade Orange and a hot chicken roll first, then sip away on water for the day. Solved! :P

The cure is based on the idea that the liver will process the ethanol freshly introducted rather than the residual methanol or aldehydes , can't remember which chemical it is exactly, from the night before which is more toxic and contributes to the hangover symptoms.

Microdot

A cold shower and a strong cup of tea.

Just kicking the can down the road.

This thread reminds me of why I barely drink to excess anymore. It's not worth it.

Too all the people recommendeding different types of food for the hangover, if you can eat anything, it's not a hangover.

That's a really odd thing to say. When I'm hungover I can't stop eating.

No, and it could save yer ass.

If you were out in say Bali and got a dodgy cocktail with dodgy bootleg alcohol ( methanol ) , some "proper drinkin' alcohol" and a bit of dialysis will save yer ass.

Your body will go back to processing the ethanol instead of the methanol, buying time for dialysis

( ADH prefers "proper alcohol" over methanol by about 10 - 20 times)

We report on a patient who presented to us 8 hr after consumption of countrymade alcohol with symptoms of methanol poisoning. Prompt administration of ethanol and institution of hemodialysis resulted in complete reversal of all manifestations.

Appropriate management requires immediate administration of ethanol, which competitively inhibits methanol metabolism and prevents the generation of toxic formic acid

Long gone are the days when a hangover accompanied a charge sheet after been thrown out by bouncers.

Oh AH what have you become.

There is no doubt that the cure is the only thing that actually makes you feel better within about 30 mins after starting. Even terrible hangovers are made so so much better once you get that first pint or maybe two into you.

Yes it can be dangerous as you could create a new hangover but on many occasions I've had 5 or 6 pints to cure a hangover and it wouldn't be enough to make another one. The other thing that helps is if you are so hungover you can't but you manage to force down a few pints (or vodka and 7up if you are really bad) you will be able to eat then when the drink has you feeling much better and this food will also help a lot.

Did you even get laid!

MadYaker

I'm not too bad. I don't normally get bad hangovers though. One of the lads I live with is cursed with them. I drank more than him last night and I'm grand, but he's been in bed all day absolutely dieing, the only time he gets up is to go get sick!

I don't mind the hungover Sundays too much. We ordered in a load of food and chilled out watching the ryder cup with a few beers.

The flying mouse

I was in great form this morning, really happy after Dublin's win.

Then you've never been hungover. Just a bit tired.

harry Bailey esq

Benzodiazapines and a couple of drinks slowly sipped over the course of the day is my own preferred remedy(don't do it ever time you're feeling a little hungover,only when its really bad),im lucky too that I live less than a few hundred yards from the north co. Dublin coastline and most weekend mornings im walking the dog,that nearly always takes some of the edge off a really severe hangover,its great for the appetite,and once you get a good feed on board half the battle is already won.
