coping with hangovers (alcohol)

I think the idea of the post was, dont drink alcohol, do psychotropic substances. ;)
NO, NO and once again NO! The point of the post was that a proper alcohol hangover is MUCH, MUCH worse than coming down on meth, period. And all of you may disagree coz this is my subjective opinion.
Man, this place is full of tards...

of all the drugs ive done, im gonna say a good hefty 20+ drink alcohol hangover is the WORST.. the only thing worse is combos, like tons of adderall+tequila=MAD hangover.
 
I agree with you Benzo-messiah. Although meth can have a ridiculously long, drawn-out, depressive comedown, there is no condition where I think death would be a better alternative other than in the midst of an awful alcohol hangover.
 
the best thing to do is just drink good clean liquor to start with. i drank 3/4 of a 5th of vodka sunday night and i woke up feeling a little funky but within 2 hours i felt almost completely normal. i drank a brand of vodka called mad monk(tm). it's distilled 4 times so it has very few impurities. skyy vodka is also very clean as it's distilled 3 times. also if you drink it with lots of ice and some fruit juice you're getting lots of water into you're body. also stay away from carbonated alcoholic beverages if possible. also i believe cigarettes will increase you're hangover. stop smoking , unless you like styrene , benzene , carbon monoxide and tolulene vapors(and about 50 other freaky chemicals).
 
Best thing for me is before I go to bed, eat something startchy (Noodles, pasta, ect...), take a vitamin, some advil, water, and a couple of milk thistle caps. Then wake up ealier than you normaly would, chug some pedialye (Childrend electrolyte drink - It really works) then go back to sleep, and wake up a few hours later pleasantly refreshed.
 
I think we have all been down this road before. I'm a failry heavy drinker, and fully understand the "awfulness" of a hangover. Initially I have to say get over it. It sucks, and although sometime unbearable, you knew what you were getting yourself into.
I drink a big glass of water right before bed, and keep it close by during the night. You know you will need it.
Other than that, drink seltzer water, as it will hydrate you, and settle you stomach a little. Most people will tell you to drink lots of water during the day (and you most likely will) but this won't help with nausea. I avoid gatorade because for me it won't help at all, and usually makes me sick (Try throwing up 2 bottles of gatorade in front of you Finance class all over yourself.)
If you have benzo's around, they hit the spot after a saturday night. Besides that, suck it up, drink some water beofore bed, or don't drink when you know you have important things to do the next day.
 
Yes a cup of water before you go to bed...but if you're like me and do not get a hangover until you are completely trashed...enough to not remember the cup of water...try Pediolyte. Yes, the stuff they make babies drink to rehydrate themselves. It's got every vitamin and mineral you can think of plus electrolytes. You can get it in pretty much any grocery store. Oh, and it tastes pretty much like kool-aid...good stuff cold but when warm it's hardly bearable.

i think alcohol and ibuprofen aren't good to take together. seems like i read somewhere that it's not good for your liver. maybe the back of the ibuprofen bottle.

Depending on how much you consumed, realize that a large part of your hangover is actually your body going through a form of withdrawal. Alcohol is extremely physically addictive and can kill severe alcoholics who go cold turkey. The old timers usually do the "throw-up drink" trick where you start of the day with a huge shot of vodka and hurl it all up, then have a screwdriver for breakfast. Smoking marijuana generally works for a short-term fix, and speed is always a blessing. If your waking up shaking, and still drunk though, your screwed. The only cure is to begin the vicious cycle and get wacked again. Oral rehydration salts are a great help, and a benzo will help keep the racing heart, hotflash feelings.
Say hello to the little bugs you eventually start to see...they're not that bad!

I'm fiending for a cigarette but I don't want to start back smoking, so I'll just get some crack instead>. All logical contradictions aside (mostly mine), if you need heroin to deal with alcohol hangovers, visit your local AA support group and stop drinking.
What the hell is this supposed to mean?
he said that heroin is a cure all for a hangover! And you should believe when he says it. I find this one of the only methods to cope with hangovers.
Shit I won't even go out drinking anymore if I don't have a bag of smack or at least some decent painkillers for the next day!

Use some mild opiates... the best is probably percocet one or two tabs and your 75% better. Along with gatorade and lots of water.....
Even 2-3 t3s will help alot...
 
i have always found that water does the trick. If i am on an all nighter, i will throw a glass of water in between every few drinks and swallow down 2 glasses before i go to bed. Dehydration is probably the largest contributor to the morning sickness

Well if you want to get Technical (no pun intended, really), Heroin was first marketed as a cough syrup made by Bayer. Does it work? Yes! Is it a good idea to use Heroin when you have a cough (and solely for that purpose)? Probably not.
As for your other comment, I'm a rationalist, and I never blindly accept what any bluelighter/greenlighter/moderator says. If I believed everything I read on bluelight, I'd be a dumb mofo.

First off pal why dont you try some pain killers for the hangover, eg. asa, motrin, instead of anxiolitics. And isnt propranolol an blood pressure med, it is a non selective beta blocker. Oh yeah and dose up on water before you goto sleep I find this always cures my hangovers, I drink two big glasses of h20 before bed and I feel like a million bucks the next day.
 
If I know what an anxiolitic is (and I'm not sure that I do. :) ), then they might be just the thing for a hangover. Remember that benzos are given in the hospital setting for the treatment of alcohol withdrawl and recall that the hangover is largely a sort of miniature withdrawl-episode coupled with dehydration. This does not, however, warrant the admin. of beta-blockers.

I took propranolol for my shaky-shaky hands and my racing heart. It worked somehow i guess...
can't really remember anymore. It didn't do me any harm anyway...
 
Once you've got a hangover, the only thing that will make it all good again is having a few drinks the day after. Mix up some good drinks that don't taste like alcohol, force them down and you'll be fine, or wait a few hours and have a few beers and chill, and you'll be feing fine, albeit a bit slow.
Of course, this isn't a good way, but it's the only way to get good fast. Otherwise, just get some water, some food, some chill music, some sleep, some chatting, everything that doens't require energy, and by the evening you'll be quite well again, ready for another night out :P
