Hangovers are worse as you get older

christ on a bike!

I think this is bullshit

I think you are just less willing to put yourself through such torture. I recall, when I first had a proper job in my early twenties that hangovers could last until thursday, and after swearing off the drink all week you began to feel good just as the next weekend approached.

Spent days dying on the couch where I never left the house and didn't get up until 3 - and when I did get up I ate crap all day and then went and ate crap food - as did the rest of them (in my gang anyway).

Now - I do have good nights out, last night being one of them where I drank until 5 which is kinda rare these days admittedly - would just go home at 3 when everything is close.
This is a good difference in itself, weekends a few years ago involved 24/48 hour sessions - putting your body through hell really.

But I still party hard when I want, as do all my buddies, but still have enough pep for a game of golf in the morning because I eat a nutritious breakfast a don't drink until it becomes bright.

I'm very successful right now so I would urge the posters here to take a leaf out of my book, you might be a better people as a result

Hangovers are worse as you get older

Not really
You just know you can drink a lot more therefore suffer more

I don't get hangovers
I get hangarounds and then blame everyone else because I'm suffering

tbh its the waste of money that pisses me off when I get drunk

Never understood why people complain about hangovers so much given they're so easily avoidable. Do people really not prepare themselves? And no, of course they don't get worse as you get older, that's just bollocks. But avoidance is the key, fatty foods, lots of water etc...can't go wrong!

I am rich now. It wasn't rocket science, just a re-direction of effort.

Now I am going to bed to wake up to earn more.

kraggy

You rope me in with with a decent topic in the thread title only for you to needlessly state that you're "successful" at the end of the op.

I'm out of here.

Judging from this post, looks like you'll have a pretty bad hangover when you wake up. Hope you drank a litre of water beforehand though!

WumBuster

Just drink 3-4 glasses of water before you go to bed to dissolve the alcohol and prevent dehydration next day, thus no hangovers.

What are you succesful at? Saving whales? Saving Wildlife in General?
A football player?
Rugby/Formula 1/Basket making/lecturing?

What would we be better people at?

Telling people to copy us?

I'm very successful, not just right now.. But in General... :pac:

Everything gets worse as you get older for everyone else but not me.

I'm great.

I think I should get both of the parachutes just in case one of them doesn't work.

Preparation isn't reliable. It's possible to prep, eat plenty of food, drink loads of water and still wake up feeling like a camel's arse.

The only thing I've found to be consistent is the application of the cure, which consists of lots of starchy food, water, coffee, and trips to the toilet.

I don't think hangover necessarily get worse when you get older, you just drink more and less often. I remember when I first started drinking at 15/16 hangovers always involved puking, but you were right as rain by 10am. But then, you probably only had 4 cans the night before.
At 21, hangover could easily last till 3pm, but you only got out of bed at 2pm and you might be on day 2 of a 3-day binge, so the hangovers are never that bad.
When you hit your late twenties, you're only doing heavy drinking once every couple of weeks and you're getting out of bed before 11am. So your hangovers appear to hit you harder and last way longer.

Speak for yourself, I'm 32 now and just getting worse and worse with booze as I descend lower into nihilism and one big existentialist nightmare

Sergeant

The arrogance of youth. Hangovers do get worse as you get older. They move from a mere sick stomach, headache and lethargy to something much more profound. The uncertainty, the doubt, the crisis of the soul, the terrible wave of pitch black depression that overcomes you after you drink more than a dozen pints on a Friday or Saturday night. A bad hangover can last until the following Thursday.

If I need advice on how to clear a breakout of acne, then I'll speak to someone under the age of 25. If I need support to overcome a really bad hangover, then I'll speak to someone over the age of 30 who truly understands the trauma I'm going through.

The word '' naïve '' and the term '' sheltered life '' spring to mind OP .

admiralofthefleet

3 years ago i was able to start drinking about 6 in the evening, keep going til 4am and be back in work for 7am; 4 or 5 nights a week.
i started drinking at 3 on paddys day and went home at 1 or 2 that night and paid for it for 2 days

it definitely gets worse as you get older

Well, prepping also includes what types of drink you might have given that some drinks are more likely to give you a hangover, such as red wine. But, of course, all of this goes out the window if you're going to binge from 6pm to 4am, but I'm not referring to those folks.

For many people, prepping beforehand is a very useful tool and while you might still wake up feeling like sh1t, it may well have been abated by the prepping done beforehand. I wouldn't knock it so readily.

I agree with the rest of your post though OP.
