Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
-
Step 1
To hydrate your body, drink water like the fish you were the night before.
-
Step 2
Eat mild foods, since your stomach right now is quite sensitive. Bananas, rice, applesauce and toast or soda crackers (BRAT) are all good options.
-
Step 3
Check the label before you take a pain reliever to reduce any hangover-induced aches. Some pain relievers, including acetaminophen, aspirin and naproxen sodium, should not be used when alcohol is still in your system.
-
Step 4
Rest to allow your body to recover from your revelry.
-
Step 5
If alcohol has affected your relationship with others, your performance at work or your health, you are exhibiting signs of alcoholism. Visit Alcoholics Anonymous to learn more (see Resources).

TAKE A WARM SHOWER. This one always helps me the most, and i'm surprised i haven't seen this suggestion anywhere. it helps relieve the headache, gets rid of a lot of the congestion from smoking/ being around smoke, gets rid of the smoke that's clung onto your skin (the

on 2/13/2009 i'm new to hangovers. i was one of those lucky bastards who never got them. I'm 21 and i've successfully began getting hangovers. lucky me.Here's some help:1. I always drink a lot of water. that one is obvious from your cottonmouth. and i mean BOTTLES, not just one bottle. The sooner you start drinking, the better you will feel. of course if you drink it too fast you might puke, so don't get too excited. you can pop a few vitamins if you'd like, but since you should be drinking A LOT- you'll most likely just piss them all out. it's best to eat your vitamins, not take them in pill or liquid form. way too many people are overvitamining (i know i just made that word up =]) themselves and wasting a bunch of money. a. you can overdose on certain vitamins and minerals, take hypercalcemia for example and b. some vitamins actually counteract others, so if you want to get anything out of the pill
