Last night I went to one of my universitys various May balls, and had a fantastic time. The result this morning is not good; lets just say I'm not feeling at my peak (small understatement). Anyway, could people post their hangover cures, I am willing to try almost anything.

Ps please don't shine any bright lights, or make any loud noises in this thread, thankyou.

er.... More Beer??? :D :D

<font color="lightgreen">Cold Showers are said to help, as is Black Coffee... water can also be good.
Although having no experience with such a situation, I cant verify the legitimacy of these cures. :D </font>

On a more serious note, I am an old hand at this (it's no secret that I like my beer lol!)

DO NOT drink coffee - the main thing you feel during a hangover is dehydration - that's what causes the headache. Coffee dehydrates you further, and what you need to do is rehydrate. Drink lots of water. Sometimes fizzy drinks can, for some reason I find, be a bit of a miracle cure - I usually find cold coke or sprite with lots of ice does the trick - but you need to drink a lot of fluids.

Also hangover prevention - eat before you start drinking, and when you get home drink at least a pint of water if you can do so without puking. If you wake up in the night (you're gonna if you drank a pint of water before going to bed lol) then have more water.

Take it from me, I'm a pro - although after Phil McCavity and SomeGuy's 'What the heck is going on' thread, I don't think anyone's gonna take me seriously any more :(

Fresh orange juice is great for a hangover. Also a big fry-up really does it for me.

Lie in bed, watch tv... Works for me [img]smile.gif[/img]

Eat/Drink whatever sounds good to you - but Epona's right - you are mostly dehydrated - Gatorade/Poweraid or some sports drink works for me...

Sage advice Epona - both here and on that other thread ;) . Drinking the water just before you collapse in your bed the night before - that's the real key. As it's already happened - go the fry up (I wanna find out if it stays down :D ).
