Hangover Cures

ok, in an effort to sort my sleeping patterns out a little (just come of night-shift and now I'm working day-shift 36 hours later) I had a bit to drink last night so I could get to bed at a reasonable time... IT WORKED! Unfortunately today I have what can only be described as "The sort of hangover you'll tell your Grandkids about in years to come" and it's not good.

I need a cure, because at the moment the urge to puke on my keyboard is almost overwhelming. Thus far I've tried:

1. Paracetamol
2. Pint of water
3. Bottle of Oasis
4. Bottle of Sprite
5. Cheese, Bacon and Pepperoni toasted Panini
6. Snoozing

Suffice to say my head still feels like Para is jogging in it whilst administering an enema to himself and I fear for my life.

Anybody else got any tips that might help me and the other borderline alcoholics we have on the forum?

Fresh air? Its freezing out, and foggy, it should do you good. It works for me anyway.

Hahaha, OMG!

I had a hangover yesterday morning. I chugged some water in hopes of making myself sick and throw up (it didn't work too well, nothing but water and stomach acid came out..oh and some potato skins). I felt a little better after, then I took a super long shower, got out and laid on my bed (completely still) and basically meditated. I laid there for about 40-45 minutes, woke up and went to work.

Just lie still and do NOT think! Idk, it may work!

The hottest/spiciest food you can stomach.

If you can keep it down it'll sort out your hangover in a couple of hours tops. (I'm talking phall, not just a vindaloo.)

If you can't keep it down it'll speed up the time your hangover cures in, but not as quick as if you keep it down tho.

Can't venture outdoors for fresh air easily (I'm at work) - which rules out a decent curry until tonight as well

I'm trying chocolate now... If I try enough shit something is bound to work!

Drink a beer or two and i guarantee you will feel "normal" again. It's the best thing for a cure.

I've heard that but never wanted to try it. If I'm sick from the shit, why would I want more?!? Especially if the thought of the smell makes me woozy!!!

That's because you need to man up to your hangover. Don't pussy around with it. Hair of the dog is an old remedy, but i guarantee it works.

Oh and by hair of the dog i don't mean eating some of ManCandys girls ginger wig...

As far as i'm aware, there is only 1 real cure for a hangover. 4 double bacon and egg mcmuffins, 4 hash browns and 4 large still fanta's.

Add Bacon, egg and cheese bagels as required.

Eat the above over the course of the remainder of the day, taking naps inbetween bites and sips. Better than sex!

I don't mean to be pedantic but that's basically a tip for "riding out" a hangover, not curing it

The hangover is gone after the first mcmuffin, the rest is just for pleasure.


Posted by olskoolfife on 11-29-2008 03:48 PM:

Irn Bru (not the diet one)
the scottish remedy............


but generally lots of sugary drinks.
and a nice desktop fan constantly blowing in your face helps.


Red Bull , lucozade works pretty well too man.

Sleep is what you need though but that's out the question.

It turned out that all I needed was a Wispa to dip in my Latte

Having a huge shit helped as well... I feel human again now.

Keep posting your cures though please, most of us are disgusting reprobates who get drunk on a daily basis - we need all the help we can get (that doesn't involve a 12-Step program).

There is no miracle cure, only time.

I should know i've been having them on a regular basis for over 20 years.

How can you be working day shift 36 hours after finishing night shift?

Does not compute.

Jack goes to work at 9pm and finishes his night shift at 9am.

36 hours elapse.

Jack then goes to work at 9am and finishes his day shift at 9pm.

Does Jack make football shirts in a Malaysian sweat shop? 12 hour shifts? Thats just not right.

You get the idea.

I thought the soft one meant he started day shift 36 hours after finishing night shift.

Almost! I finished at 7am on Thursday morning and was due back in at 7am on Saturday - 48 hours though not 36, maybe I was still drunk yesterday morning They're short shifts though, about 6 hours and I get paid an assload to do it.


Posted by XXXBoX on 11-30-2008 12:42 PM:

Lucozade Sport or Powerade is the bollox when your hungover. Re-hydrates you in quick time and taking a massive shit helps too, to make sure you get all that badness out.

I have tried the hair of the dog method and ill only do that when i have got DTs really bad and its on a weekend. Work dont appreciate me sitting at my desk with a bottle of Jack at 8:30am but it does work, its hard to get the first pint down but after that your fine and the shakes stop immediately!!

Maybe in the indian call centre you work in £6.50 an hour seems like an assload...but here in the UK it's not very much i'm afraid.

Full stomach before you drink (pasta or a baked potato is the best way to go). After that, once your done drinking get a Gatorade (big bottle), 2 to 3 aspirins of your choice, and two tums (in that order). Go to bed and wake up feeling like a million bucks!
