I think this is the hangover that is actually going to kill me

[Fuckstickss]

Yep, I think this is the one.

Please tell me I'm not alone.

And send macdonalds.

*I need to be in intensive care.

At the very least a high dependency unit.

Is it an ‘airlift’ hangover? So called because I woke up in a friend’s spare room with one so terrible I genuinely asked DH if there was any way at all I could be airlifted home, because there was no way I could sit in a car then on a train for a couple of hours.

These are very funny 😆 said by someone who should have a hangover but doesn't .... I have built up my alcohol tolerance to magnificent levels during this year. Plus I don't mix my drinks. Ever. That's one thing I have learnt! Hope you all feel better soon!

"Does anyone else find that alcohol knocks you out but then you wake up a short while later? I got into bed at midnight fell asleep but from about 2am I could not get back to sleep."

Yes. If I'm drunk I simply can't sleep. Worst night ever was after my brother's wedding, most drunk I've ever been and didn't sleep a wink. Next day I fell asleep in wagamamas in a bowl of ramen.

This is why I bloody love MN!

Yes definitely though I get this it's flippin awful how you feel, like a over wired hangover/jet lag combo.

I find peri menopause has made it more frequent and bizarrely too many G and Ts more than any other beverage.

Sending you strength OP - you'll get through it

I've just had some Yorkshire puddings and a tea. Stayed down so far. Back in bed.

Why don't Indian takeaways open til 5.

I would just like to acknowledge my wonderful saint of a DP who has not made fun of me once and is currently downstairs cleaning the kitchen and is offering to go to macdonalds for me.

This is when I'm most glad that I'm Scottish and have 6 bottles of Irn-Bru full sugar in my fridge.

I was doing okay on the wine but for some reason decided to have a barley wine and a Malibu as well.

Ok wait for it. This is golden. Listen closely, my child.

You need that isotonic Lucozade. It is magic. Magic.

The flat yellow stuff in the bottle with the sports cap. Sometimes you can get it in a pack of 4. Send DH to the garage for some now.

Drink a whole bottle, in careful sips, over an hour. Then have a pack of cheese and onion crisps. They should be Tayto, but if you are not so blessed, Walkers will do.

Sip more Lucozade. If the crisps stay down, after about half an hour, take two ibuprofen and have some toast OR a sausage roll, not both.

Continue sipping Lucozade throughout the day.

In future, before you fall into drunken slumber, down a bottle of the stuff with two paracetamol and you will only get a baby hangover.

I used to work in a pub and had crippling hyperemesis in pregnancy, the above has been developed from personal exper, tested on numerous customers before, during and after lock ins, and is also suitable for pregnancy and post norovirus recovery.

It has to be the isotonic sports Lucozade though. No fizz. Avoid all the fat coke enthusiasts.

I feel your pain. Two bottles of prosecco beforr and a bottle of wine with dinner had me in bed at 7pm. I'm glad I managed to take a picture of my Xmas dinner as that's the only way I've been able to remember it. My dessert is still in the fridge since I passed out before I got a chance to eat it but I think it can stay there a while longer 🤮

@Splann

I always think if you are able to post on mumsnet you are not going to cark it anytime soon. I predict you will live to see another tedious day of 2020

Hmm. Remember that poor woman who was posting she felt horrible and WSBU to call for an ambulance and a third of the posters were saying, “Call! Sounds serious!” And a third were saying, “No! You can’t call an ambulance just because you’re a bit poorly! The whole country’s only got the one so we have to fucking share it!” And the FINAL THIRD went, “Well, you wouldn’t be on MN if you were really going to cark it.” She ended up calling THE ambulance, turns out she had sepsis, and she did almost cark it. So, I now completely believe people can post on the verge of death, and most posters who don’t update probably DID cark it, even if it’s just a thread about parking or begonias.

My tolerance is epic at the moment . As for a cure, the late and very great Lemmy always said the best way to avoid a hangover is to keep drinking

He has been dispatched for lucozade.

Death by begonias

Oh god, this was me 8 years ago. Zero memory of my lunch.

Water. Paracetamol. Chocolate. Sleep. This too shall pass, lol

These are funny!!

So glad I had to drive home yesterday (all of 1 mile!!), that sniff of the wine bottle served me well!!

OP, I'm going to hit it in an hour or so, nice tasty real ales, there is a thick one like treacle you could make a road out of, Mmmmm. Followed by lashings of red wine!!

I'm off to look in the garage for the old shower curtain.

Hope you feel better soon.

I feel your pain we were all absolutely hammered last night! 😖

Am going to make some sausage and egg sandwiches to soak up the alcohol. Do you want one?

I was laying on the sofa absolutely STRICKEN.

DH just rolled is eyes and put the football on. Bastard. I’ve told him I think my hour is near I don’t think he appreciated the gravity of the situation AT ALL.

So have gone into bedroom to die all alone.

@Shingleballs

My remedy is to try and get knocked out to sleep through the pain. Kids calpol and nurofen, God knows why but it works better on my hangover. Diorylte. Antihistamine. Water.

Antihistamines won't do anything?!

Alcohol??!?!? And no restraint!?!?!???? Well I've never succumbed to such a foolish thing and can only point condemning daggers at the fools that do!!!!

At least that's the stance I take once I've recovered from such a state.

Agree that the full fat coke helps. And I hate coke of any sort.

Lucozade (flattish) and crisps.

The only time I can drink cola of any kind is when I'm hungover.

Full fat (flat) coke.
Toast or salt and vinegar pringles.
Paracetamol.
Sleep.

Full fat coke, carbs, shower and back in bed for a nap. Chinese tonight
