Tips that certainly kicked in once I reached that certain age (about 30) when my liver and kidneys stopped taking the punishment without complaining:
1) Don’t mix grape and grain. Wine and beer do not mix. Don’t know why but they don’t. Wouldn’t agree about whiskey and beer, though. The only problem there is it makes it easy not to notice how much whiskey you’re actually drinking!
2) The Bad News: hangover cures don’t work. None of them. Once you’ve got one you’re stuck with it, in my case for about two days.
3) The Good News: you can almost invariably prevent a serious hangover if you take two paracetamol (acetaminophen?) with a large glass of water BEFORE you go to bed. This is necessary any time you’ve drunk enough to feel a bit dizzy when you get home.

I’ll show this to my friends… Some of them are already heavy drinker…

acetaminophen = Tylenol. It is available *everywhere* in the US.

You are right Derek. The doctor actually told me about Metamizole sodium (Algocalmin, a common pain killer in Romania)

Smoker, coming soon there’s gonna be an article on how I gave up smoking. 5 months already since my last cig. But, man, it’s getting tough…

Alex, i would add something, just in case. A very common thing that happens in the US (i’ve heard of at least 5 girls this happened to) is the “date rape pill”. A guy offers to get the girl a drink, goes to the bar, gets the drink and puts the pill in the drink. The substances in the pill makes the girl basically faint or fall into a very deep sleep. The guy has to carry her somewhere, were he rapes her. The pill makes her forget everything, so the can’t remember who did it and what happened, she just feels something is wrong. The pill is illegal but very easy to get. I heard of cases where people were friends for a long time and when they would all go out in a group, the guy would do that to one of his friends. So maybe it would be good to just get your own drink or something. Maybe it’s not a big problem in Europe, but i know it is in the US..

Beer mixed with sprite is called a shandy. A very tasty drink, also as said really good if you don’t want to get blotto!

If your not prepared start “having problems with equilibrium” after a few drinks then go home and eat pie or watch will and grace or friends or some other rubbish like that. its a tough enough world without being allowed to have a blowout now and then. my advice…. drink as much as you feel like but always get up in the morning.

Here’s a tip that really works for me: before, during and after drinking I always take some vitamin C. The regular doses are about 250-2000 miligrams. I take 2000 before bed and always wake up with no hangover at all.

hay the tips help but i have another question ….. about a month or so back i got REALLY sick off of captain morgan…and now it seems that any drinks like captain, gray goose, vodkas, and drinks like that make me sick just from the smell and i throw up as soon as i drink it….now i know captain is completely different from those other drinks but how can i get over that???????

I actaulay started mixing ber and sprite at a aprty unce but i put a shot of vodka in it too..lol..

Stefan – that advice of yours: to take paracetamol/tylenol before or after getting wasted is WRONG. Can be very dangerous, even fatal in certain circumstances!!!!

DON’T EVER MIX DRUGS WITH ALCOHOL!!!!!!!
REALLY!! DON’T!!!

It’s not something you should try at 15. Actually, the point of drinking is not to get drunk, but to have a good time with your friends.

I never got drunk, for some reason the little guy in my head watching for my reason was always on duty and warned me when I started to get dizzy enough. That’s when I’d switch to soda
The first time I got sick from drinking was at 18, the second time was at 20, and the third time was at 27. That’s about it. I do drink alcohol, quite a lot, only that I’m being careful not to cross the line between enjoying myself and feeling bad.

I think this is the way people should drink – social drinking, feeling-good drinking, but never “getting wasted” drinking.

yo Aaron don’t listen to alex, he is a vagina. just take like 10 shots of gin, then down a waterbottle of vadka, before you go to homecoming or whatever, then drink some beer while your there.i do it all the time before i go to my highschool football games, and to parties and stuff, and i never get a hangover, its all good. u don’t need these tips just be a man and drink, u don’t need to overthink on this, the whole point is to have fun and get cronk. and don’t mix your beer with sprite, thats like the gayest thing u could do. best of luck man.

ok
lots of misinformation here, so lets start with the worst case and then talk about what is better.
If you have a hangover:
– Make sure you got your normal 8 hours of sleep. If you normally sleep 10, make sure you get 10, if you normally sleep 6, drink some water and go give yourself 2 more hours to make 8, (getting trashed messes up your circadian rythms)
-Eat a LIGHT meal when you get up( NO GREASE, Think 1 bowl of cereal, or some fruit, your body needs some easy carbs to break the fast and fuel your liver to process the toxins, grease will plug up your lower intestines ability to take in water, and heavy foods require more digestion, which means more blood in your gut, instead of going through your liver and bringing water back to your brain cells
– Take a shower, your body expels blood toxins to your skin. Clean the crap off so that your skin can breathe and have an easier time pushing the crap out ( Dont believe me ? Take a big whiff of a drunk person the next morning and tell me they smell good )
– Take lots of water, 2-6 pints. Alcohol physically dries you out. Your Brain, liver and blood and body are dehydrated, you need H20 to regain your equilibrium and also to let your body
– Take some LIGHT exercise. This will increase oxygen and blood flow through your body to help you process the toxins. Do NOT overexercise, you are already dehydrated
– Eat 1 or two ibuprofen IF you are still hurting 1-2 hours after waking up. NEVER eat tylenol b4, during or 48 hours after drinking, it is toxic to your liver and WILL shorten the number of years you can enjoy drinking.

Ok to make it better:
-Drink on a full stomache. Also, go to bed on a full stomache. Carbs are good here. You are not thinking about your waistline, you are thinking about no hangovers.
– Drink one water drink to one alchohol drink. 1:2 is really good, just do it through out the night. IF you do this, i will be suprised if you EVER get a hang over.
– if you never drink water all night ( cuz i always just chug liters of beer, then for the last hour before bedtime, or worst case scenario, minutes before bed, DRINK AS MUCH WATER AS YOU CAN with out getting sick
– If during your session, at bedtime, during the night or the next morning you feel like puking, GO PUKE and follow it with water or better, water and some light carbs ( soda, dry toast, cereal )
Puking purges the body of toxins in the stomach AND it releases gobs of endorphins ( natural opiates, yes like codeine and morphine ) in the brain. If you puke, you will feel better and get back to sleep or your test with more ease than if you are holding back your icky feeling.

Do not mix drugs with alchohol. You probably will, but you should know not too. The safest and easily the most fun has got to be pot and alchohol. If you really want to be more fucked up than pot and alchohol, then you are past a rational point and you have to trust in mother nature to either keep you or kill you.
this being said: DO NOT MIX DOWNERS (ludes, ghb, opiates) WITH Alchohol. DO NO MIX AMPHETIMINES (x, glass, coke or speed ) WITH BOOZE. Do not mix pharmacueticals of any kind with booze.
Synergy is a powerful natural force that humans can not measure or understand. To get an idea of what the synergistic affects of mixing drugs can do, smoke a cig when you are tipsy sometime and see if the nic buzz or the alch buzz are “normal” when combined.
my recommended synergistic experiment is enjoy all things in moderation and once you are buzzed, go try to have consensual safe sex with someone. that is really a good night to remember, even if you wake up with a hang over.
stay safe and party hard. This information is tried and true. Intelligent, relevant comments are encouraged in the discussion below and Nike, post number 28, you are a fucking idiot.

lets see, we left out eating activated charcoal tablets, a very euro thing to do, ( used in finishing distallates, pot growing, fish tank filtering and chem labs ) Eat some of these to help clean the toxins out of the booze in your stomache ( proponol, ewey flavinoids and ugly tannins that will tax your liver, just let the charcoal suck em up and then you can pass them easy )
and i forgot to make my disclaimer
DO NOT BREAK THE LAW IN YOUR COUNTRY.

I have had past experiences where I have gotten sick from only 5 beers. I know that is a low tolerance but I was just wondering if my tolerance will get higher as I get older.

another good way to avoid being sick is to get really good at drinking fast. That way you can just pound a couple to start the night and then just coast the rest of the night This helps in a few ways 1)gets you a good buzz without drinking very much 2) people wont think that your a weak drinker 3) you can win a few bets and maybe get a few free drinks out of it too

Check out my website(click my name) to learn a few good ways to drink fast

pop a percocet with vodka you’ll have fun !!

thanks this helped me alot.
its quick easy to understand n gets to the point
rather then readying paragraphs n paragraphs

Good on you alex !

I’m with you Alex. I’m 19, and I’ve only been sick once from alcohol, and I vowed never again. When I go to a party, I only take a few drinks with me, as well as some softies. I don’t care if I don’t finish the alcoholic drinks, I’m just there to have a good time. Meet some new friends, talk, have fun.
I find that you’re better off being that way then “trashed”, since I’ve stopped god knows how many drunken fights at parties when idiot 14-16 year olds who think drinking as much as they can is good then going and trying to fight someone else who didn’t drink as much as them.

I don’t believe in the fingers down the throat either. Normally you can make yourself throw up with other means, like thinking of something really messy. Usually does the trick. But whatever gets it coming back up I suppose.
