    Orange lucozade, crisps, (the ones for kids like banshee bones, wheelies or hot lips) and then a Chinese or Indian that evening. I had to kinda give up drinking cis my hangovers were lasting 3-4 days!! So now it's just birthdays, weddings etc.

    This is my problem. 24 to 48 hours written off nowadays

    Another shot, a Coke and a Big Mac. Terrible I know but there it is. Works for me every time the Captain and I have a go!

    Depends on the degree of hangover...always LOTS of water- then usually something greasy and bad for me like a burger or pizza then after I'm feeling a little better I crave something healthy, like grilled chicken and salad.

    Oh and since I usually have to pee at some point in the early morning, I take a vitamin when I get up at that point. Might be totally mental but days I do that seems to be easier than days i don't!

    Things I do to TRY and prevent a hang over (and it usually works!)

    * Eat food whilst drinking
    * Drink water or soft drink/soda between drinks
    * Drink HEAPS of water or better yet have some Hydralite with water before going to bed
    * Eating some food before going to bed (I usually opt for a slice of toast or something easy)
    * Take some panadol/ibrufen/asprin first thing in the morning with lots of water or hydralite.

    I ALWAYS crave fatty & greasy food --- like McDonald's or big english breakfast!

    I rarely get hang overs anymore during this method --- especially the last 3 dot points! The most I get now is a bit of a headache which doesn't stick around long! Happy and sensible drinking folks! :drinker:

    To avoid it altogether;
    Before you go to bed take a two or three aspirin and a multivitamin and drink a large glass of tap water.
    The vitamins help your body while your liver is busy(I guess?), the aspirin helps with an headaches and the water prevents the dehydration that causes most of the symptoms anyway.

    I've never gotten drunk enough to have a hangover because the people I hung out with liked to prank drunk friends. I stop at 5 drinks and when I get home, I drink about a liter of water.

    Other things that helped: don't mix drink types (no beer and hard liquor) and eat a big meal (bread always works for me) before you drink.

    Well, I don't find blackouts and random puking to be fun. Enjoy your pain.

    I've only had one hangover in my life but it seemed to have been cured with McDonalds breakfast and a morning laying on the couch.

    Exactly this! After downing a whole bottle of cheap vodka, I found that McDonald's breakfast and a soda was the remedy.
