to ask how to get rid of post alcohol blues

Ugh.

Had to go to party last night where DPs ex was. First time meeting her. She doesn’t like me (sent me a barrage of abuse on SM when we first got together as she still wanted DP. This was a year ago and they’d been split for 10 months when we got together).

I very rarely drink but felt nervous and anxious and stupidly got v drunk. DPs ex ignored us all night which was good.

Today feel v low and sad. I know alcohol is a depressant which is why I don’t drink often but feel very wobbly today. DP doesn’t really understand what’s up with me, he’s just happy that nothing kicked off last night.

Think it’s a mix of seeing his ex and the booze. Help me snap out of it!

Do some gentle exercise. Take a shower. Then get under a blanket, fire up Netflix and order pizza and cookies from dominos. You'll feel better soon enough. Oh and drink.lots of water.

I was going to post something similar earlier - not the ex part, but had one too many last night and now got serious hangxiety that I’m failing as a human today.

I’ve always found that getting some fresh air sorts me out when I’m hungover and feeling down. Even though the worst thing in the world is getting out of bed on a hangover haha. Maybe just head out for a brisk walk? I’d like to take my own advice but I’m useless at that so I’m just festering in my PJs Blush

Fresh air, then another drink! Grin Hair of the dog works wonders.

Yup, stay drunk. Best hangover cure ever.

Oh OP, I understand how you feel. I’m suffering with post drink anxiety today, after a tearful morning I’ve decided it’s not worth it anymore and will be giving up the booze. Be kind to yourself today, you’ll feel better tomorrow Smile

Go for a walk, some fresh air. Call in to a shop and get a bottle of red wine and something nice to put in a bath. Home, bath, call for a curry, into comfy clothes, one glass of red wine with your curry. Herbal tea until bed.

A cry in the bath also recommended!

You'll feel better tomorrow. It is definitely the booze that's making you down.
