Hangover from hell

[NeveragainImeanit]

Has anyone any tips.... Or is it just a matter of riding it out? I got stupidly, messily drunk yesterday and have died a million deaths all day with shame and embarrassment.
The friends I was with were drunk too, but not as bad as me. I'm convinced now they all hate me and I've ruined friendships. I suffer from anxiety anyway but this is a whole other level and I just want to curl up and cry.

I know it was stupid, immature and dangerous so please, no judgement

As someone who does this far too often the reality is you won’t have been that bad. Be kind to yourself. Loads of water, some nice food and a good sleep, you’ll be right 👌

Fresh bedding and an early night - you'll feel better tomorrow.

If everyone was drunk you won't be the only one feeling like this.

You've got beer fear and it will pass. I promise.
You probably did nothing terrible and even if you did, I hope your friends will go with some gentle piss taking and kindness.

Loads of liquids (water obviously but also a cold Diet Coke if you have some).

Eat, you might slump after but it'll help.

I always take berocca.

Sleep and watch something comforting.

You'll be fine.

Also, have a little cry if you want.

It's the fear ! You need greasy food and a full fat coke.

No no! Don't cry! You won't stop and you'll look a fright.

Carb up and style it out. You have the "I have no recollection of saying/doing/ being " fallback.

Hot shower and takeaway of some kind.

Thank you for the gentle replies

I'm prone to catastrophic thinking anyway but all day have been agonising over what could have happened. It was just so messy....

Early night and loads of water it is

For me a full fat coke, cheese and onion crisps then a dirty burger / kebab is the answer with paracetamol and a day in bed napping and mumsnetting.

In my experience, your friends will be the same!

No advice, I'm currently worried because when we were out on Friday night my friends told me off for saying 'Chinese new year' rather than 'lunar new year'

You'll be fine OP. Coke, carbs and curl up. The beer fear is the pits, but it will pass and your friends probably won't remember much either.

Ring your mates have a laugh about how bad you feel meet up for Sunday lunch and have another couple of drinks
always works for me 😂😂

Some great suggestions thanks
I might laugh about it...... Someday

Are you worried about actual hang over(from the title) or the fact you got really drunk?
It happened to a lot of us, I'm sure.
Next time, pace it, and eat before/while you drink. It works well for both preventing getting too drunk and horrible hang over.

Have you been in contact with your friends since last night?

Go easy on yourself. As long as you didn't fight with anyone, cause a scene and that you got home safe then you're grand x

You have the fear. Guarantee you you were fine! Just take a hot shower and get to bed
Tomorrow will be better.

Bless you, Igot drunk recently which I try to avoid doing, the anxiety took a good 3 or 4 days to subside. I dunno how people just get on with life after a heavy night.

Full fat coke, crisps (the more msg, the better) and a bacon sandwich, and ride it out! We've all been there! There's no point fighting it, you just have to accept it and remember that tomorrow you'll feel like you can take on the world!

Been there OP, more times than I care to remember - solidarity.

Carbs, water, early night, everything will seem better in the morning x

Both. Hangover is horrendous but it's made worse by knowing how bad I was. Nothing for it but sleep and hopefully tomorrow is a better day

Thanks everyone. Friends feeling it too so there's solidarity in that. Home safe which is what matters
