Dan_The_Man_16 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Ok, it's a little different actually, because this is sort of a one time thing for me, close the post if you want, I didn't mean to offend anyone, sorry, I was just asking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 2048 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 If you mean what I think you mean, I've heard Gatorade does the trick better than lots of water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JR Boucicaut 3803 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Your "bad headache" is caused by dehydration. The quicker you get fluids in your system, the better off you'll be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LegoDoom 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 If you don't want a hangover, you're supposed to drink a glass of water for every beer you have. That's a lot of water and I don't know anyone who's actually done it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 You need to start drinking the water before you go to bed next time. You may have to wake up to piss 20 times but every time you get up, drink another glass of water. By morning, or early afternoon, you should be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoDoom 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Yeah, that still doesn't work very well though unless you drink a whole lot of it. There's a real easy way to get around the whole thing and it's to drink a higher proof alcohol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 I usually end up drinking a gallon or so by the time I'm done using that method. Clear and high proof works to an extent as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PiKappaPhi 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Chasers work. They really are amazing, I used them and felt great in the morning. If you dont want to use chasers, just buy activated carbon tablets and use those. They are basically the same thing.If you already have a headache, you need to drink lots of water and get your hands on caffeine. Caffeine helps to restrict blood vessels in your brain. This is good because a headache is caused by too much blood flow through the brain which makes the brain increase in size and push against the skull. So lots of water, excedrin, and a coke will do wonders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve66 45 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Drink some water before you crash out and eat something to soak up some of the alcohol in the stomach.... pretty much same again for the morning. One of the worst things is to stay in bed and feel sorry for yourself, shower up and brush your teeth to feel fresher and get some air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoDoom 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 The local thing to do is to stop at and get a cheesesteak before heading home. Those things work wonders for the next day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eman24dx 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2004 Tomato juice is suposed to be the very best thing you can have because it has all the vitamins you need to "recover" Some people I know wake up and have a bloody mary, kinda strange. I hope you don't have hockey today because I tried to play once with a really bad "Headache" and though I was going to die. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alden 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2004 I second the Chasers, they really do work! I started getting really bad hangovers after college and as I got older (30 today!) the hangovers got worse. I decided to try the Chasers and used as directed, no hangover the next day after double digit beers. You can find the stuff for pretty cheap online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
