I'm asking this question seriously because I really need something wetter than water. I appear to have durnken at least 6 pints in the last half an hour and my mouth is still as dty as it has ever been. I am feeling severely rough today :(

Try a double Jack Daniels and coke in a tall glass with lots of ice, thats a superb hangover cure.

Like you Helen I have a stinking hangover and need some sort of cure. My problem is I can't do the above mentioned cos' I'm at bloody work!

bleurgh. Usually I'm alrite at drinking in the morning again to get rid of my hangover but today I don't think I could get anywhere near a glass of alcohol without throwing up :( And also I'm blind as a bat coz I've lost my contact lenses somehow :(

I'm a bit the same this morning. I could handle a JD but even the thought of lager makes me sick!

It's a case of no pain no gain. Just belt it down you as quick as possible and stand over a sink just in case!

1 star hangover*
No pain. No real feeling of illness. Your sleep last night was a mere
half-time nap which is giving you a whole lot of misplaced energy. Still able to function relatively well. However, you can drink 10 bottles of water and still feel as parched as The Simpson Desert. Even vegetarians are craving for a hamburger and chips.

2 star hangover **
No pain, but something is definitely amiss. You may look okay but you have the attention span and mental capacity of a stapler. The coffee you chug to try and remain focused is only exacerbating your rumbling gut, which is craving a full English breakfast. Although you have a nice demeanour about the office, you are costing your employer valuable money because all you really can handle is some light filing, followed by aimlessly surfing the net and writing junk e-mails.

3 star hangover ***
Slight headache. Stomach feels crappy. You are definitely a space cadet and so not productive. Anytime a girl walks by you gag because her perfume reminds you of the random gin shots you did with your alcoholic friends after the bouncer kicked you out at 1:45 a.m. Life would be better right now if you were in your bed with a dozen donuts and a litre of coke watching Good Morning with Moonface. You've had 4 cups of coffee, a litre of water, 2 pieces of toast and a litre of diet coke, yet you haven't pissed once.

4 star hangover ****
You have lost the will to live. Your head is throbbing and you can't speak too quickly or else you might honk. Your boss has already lambasted you for being late and has given you a lecture for reeking of booze. You wore nice clothes, but that can't hide the fact that you either missed an oh-so crucial spot shaving or it looks like you put your make-up on while riding the dodgems, depending on your gender. Your teeth have sweaters, your eyes look like one big vein and your hairstyle makes you look like a reject from the class picture of Easterhouse secondary school circa 1976. You would
give a weeks pay for one the following:-

* Home time
* A duvet and somewhere to be alone
* A time machine so you could go back and NOT have gone out the night
before.

5 star hangover *****
You have a second heartbeat in your head, which is actually annoying the employee who sits next to you. Stale vapour is seeping out of every pore and making you dizzy. You still have toothpaste crust in the corners of your mouth from brushing your teeth. Your body has lost the ability to generate saliva, so your tongue is suffocating you. You'd cry but that would take the last of the moisture left in your body. Death seems pretty good right now. Your boss doesn't even get mad at you and your co-workers think that your dog just died because you look so pathetic. You should have called in sick
because, let's face it, all you can manage to do is breathe... very gently.

6 star hangover ******
You arrive home and climb into bed. Sleep comes instantly; as you were
fighting it all the way home in the taxi. You get about 2 hours sleep and the noises inside your head wake you up. You notice that your bed has been cleared for take off and is flying relentlessly around the room. No matter what you do you know your going to chuck. You stumble out of bed and now find that your room's in a yacht under full sail. After walking along the skirting boards on alternating walls knocking off all the pictures, you find the toilet. If you are lucky you will remember to lift the lid before you spontaneously explode and wake the whole house up with your impersonation of walrus mating calls. You sit there on the floor in your undies, cuddling the
only friend in the world you have left (the toilet), randomly continuing to make the walrus noises, spitting, and farting. Help usually comes at this stage, even if it is short lived. Tears stream down your face and your abdomen hurts. Help now turns into abuse and it usually goes back to bed leaving you there in the dark. With your stomach totally empty, your spontaneous eruptions have died back to 15 minute intervals, but your body wont relent. You are convinced that you are starting to turn yourself inside out and swear that you saw your bum come out your mouth on the last occasion. You lie there cold and shivering, with eruptions now occurring at 1 hour intervals. It is now dawn, and you pass your disgusted partner getting up for the day as you try to climb into bed. He/She abuses you again
for trying to get into bed with lumpy bits of dried vomit in your hair. You reluctantly accept this advice and have a shower in exchange for them driving you to the hospital. You finally feel well enough to eat again on the following day, with the mention of alcohol making your stomach churn. This effect of sight or smell of alcohol making your stomach churn lasts for a week and publicly you vow never to do it again..... until next time.



Hmmm - reading that actually made me feel a bit better coz instead of making me concentrate on how hungover I am - it made me realise how hungover I'm not! At the minute @I think I'm wavering between a 3 star and 4 star hangover - and I'm grateful - I've had a 6 star one before and it's not pretty!

Yeah, you've got be really analytical about your hangover. Food can go either way so that's a really tricky situation. There's any number of states of health your arse can be in and the nervous system can range from slightly squirmy to collapsing in a quivering pile if somebody looks you in the eye. Those ones where you have to puke every half-hour so that you can even lie comfortably in bed are the worst and sometimes now my Sunday hangover lasts well into Monday (especially if I haven't slept Sunday night).

Between a four and five at the moment. The thing is last night I hadn't even planned to go out. We all went to the pub after work for A drink, then you've guessed we ended up staying there all night! Woke up for work this morning wearing the clothes I was in yesterday not knowing how I got home!

"I'm never going out and drinking again til next week maybe"
That's better :D

What you are experiencing is commonly referred to as alchahol poisoning dear. Inability to eat, or drink without feeling sick. Woozy feeling that lasts more than a few hours after waking up. Feeling worse as the day progresses. These are signs of more than a hangover. Better slow down a bit. Just realize having that 7th pint really doesn't do anything but put you out of commission quicker ;)

I am quite anxious bout that - considering it wasn't even in the same room as I was when I woke up this morning! I think I just took it off as I walked thru the front dor or something and got straight on the couch. Feeling better now btw - I'm just extremely tired - and still drinking excessive amounts of water!

Top hangover cure, that always works for me, vitamin C. I normally get the orange flavour that you disolve in water. Drink it in one, then you should feel right as rain within half an hour.

I love it after i go out drinking i have only ever had a hangover once, that was after a good friends 18th when we went on one hell of a binge night and were going until about 6:30, then i got about two hours sleep on this crappy little lounge, and my girlfriend was leaving to go back to sydney at 12 and i didnt want to move or i thought either my head would explode or i would throw up.

Sucked big time that one cause we wanted to do something but i just couldnt move, i was just laying on the floor while we were chatting with everyone trying not to die.
