Sup.... i went out drinking last night with a mate for hs 18th. I had a few to many and feel like shit now... Anyone know a tried and tested method of getting rid of hangovers?

Drink.

Or more sensibly. A fry up and a big glass of cold orange juice in some fresh air, like outside a cafe or in the back garden (if it's warm).

hmmm... sounds nice... except i have already had all the baconin the house, no orange juice (Hasn't been for months) nearest cafe is about 20 mins drive away and its cold outside....
haha thanks though

Time. Seriously, the best way to get rid of a hangover is to sleep while its happening, and wait for the alcahol to leave your system.

SLEEP! Also vitamin B (Berocca sort of stuff).

Also, when your boozing, drink more water in between....

**** vitamin b after the fact...Theoretically I believe its meant to help, but you should be consuming it while you're drinking to start with.

Bacon and eggs, plus OJ and (IMO) either orange cordial (aka squash) or lipton lemon ice tea will help take the edge off. The grease to help line the stomach again, OJ for the refreshment factor and cordial or ice tea for the sugar. Won't cure it though.

Water will help get the shit out of your system but won't actually cure a hangover. If you're got a sore head, soluble aspirin is a personal favourite. If you're got an iffy stomach, go for the lipton ice tea again. Or a milkshake will work wonders, drunk slowly.

The only surefire ways I know (and I've tried very hard) are either getting drunk again (done right, you'll wake up the next day feeling fine, but this requires a fairly precise knowledge of how much booze you can take and what kinds), or sleeping. IMO opt for sleeping

For stomach - go puke. Its nasty but it solves it.

For headache - eat a bunch of pills.

For hangover feeling - sleep or drink more.

Dont't do this for the simple reason that getting into the habit of doing this will cause far more problems (and worse) than a simple hangover will. Never puke unless your body decides its necessary and gives you no other option

Well in my opinion, it is probally the best to actually use the 'hair of the Dog'. Meaning, drink what you were drinking last night. Crazy I know, the idea is not the get drunk, but get yourself merry again, thus curbing the hangover and just turning it into a mildly bad day, rather that a right crud one.

If that isn't an option. Sleeping tablets, plus a movie, plus lying down. Don't 'try' to go to sleep again, just put yourself in a relaxed mood. Drinking water is something that you should do BEFORE you go to bed after the night before. 90% of the time that will prevent a hangover.

The other 10%, well...

A large amount of coke & a burger (or indeed any greasy meat product).
