    Out last nite throwing shapes in coppers and flannerys, yea the night is a bit of a blur and i've a photo keyring that i dont know where it came from.

    I started on a few pints of the Northsiders Champaigne, won a Tiger beer a the rest cant really remember.


    But woke up this morning feeling like a new born lamb, no hangover no blured vision.

    when i used to drink cider i'd wake up totally fresh but since the switch to beer I've been experiencing them not so pleasant!

    desperate hangovers - always wake up with that "never again" feeling ..... until the next time that is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,493 ✭✭✭DazMarz


    I get the worst, most crippling and unbearable hangovers. Without exception, no matter what I drink, if I get anyway drunk at all, I will wake up with a hangover. Tho they vary in degrees of strength and nastiness, I always get them.

    Worst hangover I ever had was one night after a lock in, I had to work the next day. In a small, confined, overheated office. Thankfully there was a small window in the place, where I could run and puke out of. Thought I was dying of alcohol poisoning... lol. Didn't thankfully. But I ALWAYS get hangovers. Am kinda just getting over one now as I write this....

    Only with wine for some reason. Probably doesn't help that I usually have a bottle to myself. Should stop doing that, really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,523 ✭✭✭kwestfan08


    Yep I get them and I have one right now!! :(

    I came in here to say the exact same thing - Bud gives horrid hangovers but Bulmers makes me feel fresh as a (stood on) daisy - it's probably why it costs so much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    There's no pattern to my hangovers.

    Sometimes I could go on the lash with little food on board and I'd wake up the next morn, fresh as a daisy.

    Sometimes I'd have a full dinner, about 5 pints and I'd be dying the next day.

    Last Saturday was the worst in a while, it was about 7pm before the mist left my head :(

    I'm on the verge of crippling alcoholism, so I dont get hangovers anymore as my body is just used to it now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3 fabulais


    It varies completely. Sometimes I'll get a bit of one after a couple, and others I can be totally wasted and wake up fresh as a daisy. I really do think it depends on the time of the month! ;)

    If I go to bed really drunk I normally get a hang over. But these days I normally stay up a bit after all the drinkings over doing other things, and downing vast quantities of water.

    I'm always suspicious of people who say they don't get hang overs though, like those people who say certain drugs don't affect them. I always have the urge to put them to the test via foricible overdose. I don't really.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 11,017 Mod ✭✭✭✭yoyo


    Nope, dont really get hang overs, I have gotten sick on several occasions and not being able to eat much the next day, but tbh lately, nah, no hangovers, had 9 cans last nite and felt fresh this morning :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,070 ✭✭✭✭pq0n1ct4ve8zf5


    Varies, depends on the quantity of booze, the type of booze, how much water I drink before bed and whether or not I manage to avoid eating when I get home. Once, all I had was a half bottle of wine and one pint of some weird beer in the Franciscan well and I woke up the next morning literally feeling as if I'd had the crap beaten out of me. I was staying at a friends house but I felt so crap I was still there sitting on their couch going "owwwwww" by the time they got home from work :pac: But generally once I get something to eat I'm fine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,459 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    Nope never got one, Proberly because I don't really go over board while drinking but there have been times when I've had a lot and all i get it is feeling of slight dizziness in the morning, it dosen't really affect me though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Haven't had one in years, bless the Rheinheitsgebot or curse it, which ever way hangovers are thing of the past!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    I am unprotected from the hangover syndrome. I'm not superman :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    Yes, massive ones.

    I'm out of the game for two/three days after.

    Clearly you must be about 18 years of age.
    Don't worry, your day will come. When you hit 30 it will take you two days to get over a night on the town.
    It's hell.
    :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Borneo Fnctn


    I certainly do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,084 ✭✭✭n1ck


    Started getting them recently but thats only due to massive amounts of drink, like 150 euros worth to myself and then I only get the tiniest little headache, i'm grand after an hour.

    Depends what I drink,how much I drink and if I mix drinks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 188 ✭✭villager


    if i stick to pints(lager or stout) i am fine no matter how many i drink. if i go on shorts or shots i am dead next morning:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    I reckon everyone gets hangovers to some extent if they drink enough to get drunk. Some people just exaggerate them and others play them down.

    WHAT! It gets WORSE! :eek:

    Im almost 23 and i find its taking me alot longer to get over them! theres no pattern with them! well except when i drink wine, my body almost immediately gives me a headache for doing so!

    yeah rotten ones with a thumping throbbing headache.

    Sex helps


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    What "no matter how much I drank" constitutes varies as you get older though due to tolerance.

    When I started drinking, a naggin was a huge amount and would get me wasted. If I drank one I'd get (at least what I perceived to be) pretty wasted and yet I wouldn't get a hangover. Nowadays that amount would only get me tipsy but still wouldn't give me much of a hangover.

    So essentially, I could get very drunk when I was younger and not have a hangover in the morning due to the fact that it didn't take much get get me drunk, but were I to drink enough to get me drunk now, I'd certainly get a hangover.

    Wow ... this thread just made me realise something.

    I'm off alcohol for Lent, and - I never thought I'd say this, but:

    I miss hangovers :eek:

    There's something really nice about feeling so horrifically awful, like you're about to die, but knowing that in a day (or two) (or even three) you'll be feeling perfect again. Makes you appreciate your health a lot more!

    Plus it's a great excuse for snuggling up on the couch under a duvet, with a Sex & the City box set, a giant-size Galaxy and a five-litre bottle of water ... mmm ....

    The only good thing about hangovers is that they make physical pleasure so much better :) Like the first cup of tea/glass of water in the morning is bloody amazing! Food tastes so much better, lying down is so snuggly and comfy...not worth it though

    :(

    couldnt agree more. I started getting bad ones from about 24 on.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,223 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    I rarely get any sort of a hangover. I'm always tired, but no headache or anything like that. I do drink a fair bit of water before going to bed, and i try to eat some bread as well. And i always have a craving for an egg sandwich the morning after a heavy night out as well...no idea why (maybe its all the salt)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 765 ✭✭✭Ticktactoe


    I find the older you get the worse it gets.... seriously worse. If i have a good night at it i can guarentee you it will take me two to three days to feel myself again. The day after... forget about it... im fit for nothing.

    So the moral of the story is... enjoy the early days! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,183 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Only one.

    Leaving Cert results 2008.
    Went to a friend's house at around 2 pm, vodka, Malibu/TK (Which is absolutely mank), and smoked some Hookah (which tastes aweful but makes you feel :D:D.

    Later went out to town, headache started around 11pm, went to a pub, had some WKD Blue, then tried to get into Molly's, no luck, underaged :(.

    Then got a taxi with people pack to another lad's house, had some more vodka, then wondered home around 4 am.

    The hangover, not completely unbearable, only on the left side, stayed on till about 11 that night.

    24 hour hangover...not nice :(

    I put it down to mixing drinks a little, and the Hookah

    Still though....one hell of a night!!:D:D:D

    You should try drinking beer instead of beer-flavoured chemicals.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 13,425 ✭✭✭✭Ginny


    Depends, 2 weekends ago I was up till 4am drinking wine, still slightly drunk when I got up at 11am.....was woefully ill feeling all day, spent most of the day running back and forwards to the loo with false alarms.
    those hangovers are rare though I only have any sort of hangover about once every month or so.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    My excuse is it's the chemicals giving me the hangover and not the alcohol .As long as I stick to the beer ,with maybe the odd short thrown in then I'm fine next morning .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35 cassiusclay


    Tis totally a function of age. 23 or 24 was my cut off point. Since then they have gotten pretty bad. I can deal with a hangover no probs but it's the fear that gets you. If any of u drink enough vrb u know what i'm talking aboot.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,124 ✭✭✭kittensoft1984


    nope! :D

    i quit drinking because i got such bad hangovers:(:(:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,787 ✭✭✭dSTAR


    Usually when I mix it up the next day I feel pretty seedy.

    Red wine is the worst offender.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 336 ✭✭MelonieHead


    Nope. :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,249 ✭✭✭Rowley Birkin QC


    Not really, it's more of a state of mind I reckon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,461 ✭✭✭Queen-Mise


    not for the past ten years, but then i didn't have an alcoholic drink for past ten years either :p:p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,058 ✭✭✭✭Abi


    At this point, Im near immune. I remember feeling groggier in my teens though, but drank less.

    Its the lack of sleep that fücks me up for the day. Im always up early, even the weekends. It doesnt matter if I only got in bed at 4am. Its an awful waste of a day just lying there.

    Ive friends that would stay in bed till 1 or 2pm, lying in their pit, claiming to be dying while they breathe in their own alco-fumes.

    Sense. It makes none.

    Mind you I dont drink as much as I use to and wasn't what you would call a big drinker so that would account for less hangovers to :p
