Preferably something salty. Drink loads of water too.

Why salty? Doesn’t that just make you pee more? Or is that the point so the alcohol comes out

The trick is: drink as much water (by volume) as you’ve had alcoholic beverages before going to sleep.

Don’t drink quite so much.
Seriously, hangovers are a sign of excessive drinking. Last memorable one I had was 16 years ago.
ChexMax@lemmy.world 10 hours ago
I think this may be body dependent. Sometimes I get a nasty hangover headache from just two drinks. Lady weekend I pounded like 5 and a half drinks in an hour or two, I was drunk and queasy until deep into the next morning and no hangover. I think it’s more about what you eat and drink besides the alcohol.

I don’t drink as often as I used to these days and noticed that there’s short term tolerance for alcohol. Like if I get a case of beer, if I have 4 the first night after going some months without drinking more than one drink, I’ll often stop before getting to 4 because I’m feeling like the drunk is going in a bad direction. But if I have what I can one night, then the next night 4 isn’t a big deal.
Same thing seemed to happen with hangovers.

The older I get, the longer hangovers last. I’ve gotten pretty good at squashing them. The secret is to take a multivitamin plus b-12 and iron before bed, along with plenty of water and electrolytes. If I still feel off in the morning, a fruit smoothie with kale sets me straight.
remotelove@lemmy.ca 18 hours ago
If you drink long enough and hard enough, hangovers aren’t a thing. It’s not that hangovers go away, it’s that they become a normal part of life and your body will eventually just tune it out.
At the end of my drinking career, I could black out multiple times a week and still be “normal” the next morning and didn’t care or even notice if I was hungover or not.
For me, hangovers kinda morphed into something else entirely: dependency. That plays a huge part in muting anything that a normal person would feel, I am fairly sure.
But no, I don’t drink anymore and haven’t for a few years now. If I do ever drink again, hangovers absolutely won’t be a thing because I’ll likely be dead in a couple of days anyway.

Takes 2-3 days for all of it to completely wear off. There’s a fairly high number of people arrested for dui who think being passed out for 8 hrs means they are good to.go after, just hungover.

Pedialite is great for rehydrating
voytek709@lemmy.ca 1 day ago
I don’t drink often, and not enough to get drunk. I just wanted to say you should drink as much water as you can and eat something, even if it’s just a piece of bread.
LostWanderer@lemmynsfw.com 22 hours ago
I personally don’t get hangovers because I moderate my alcohol intake…Chasing with small sips of water or nonalcoholic drinks, I only remember feeling really fuzzy after a night of bad choices as a younger man. It lasted hours, but was more like a temporary brain fog and not very difficult to overcome.
DirigibleProtein@aussie.zone 22 hours ago
When I was young and regularly drank to excess, they used to last until mid afternoon.

Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 23 hours ago
Depends on my previous hydration and if I had some water in between drinks. Never had one that lasted more than a day if feeling fuzzy and out of it.
Retro_unlimited@lemmy.world 1 day ago
Back in college I would get really bad hangovers a few times. Here is how the absolute worst ones felt.
1 day feeling like trash.
the next day being weak and no energy but feeling so fresh and free, it’s a weird feeling.
Day after that I’m all good.
Then I can’t drink for a long time after that.
RicoSuave@feddit.cl 1 day ago
day 1 feeling extremely fatigued, headaches, hunger, vertigo, even nausea i stay very hydrated and don’t have very bad hangovers so then it usually goes away

gerryflap@feddit.nl 18 hours ago
It used to be quite short, and only for many drinks. But lately I’ve even been having hangovers that span 2 days. If I drink any alcohol right now my next day is going to suck a lot more. So usually 1 day, sometimes 2
shalafi@lemmy.world 20 hours ago
I drink 10-15 Keystones a day, no hangovers. BUT, those are spread out over the late afternoon and evening, averages maybe 1.5/hour?
Can’t drink a drop without food in me, not a drop, it’s just gross feeling.
I sleep long enough and drink unsweet tea and water all day, almost zero coke or anything else.
Can’t touch wine or anything stronger, just can’t, gets me hammered fast, leaves me feeling like crap.

I don’t want to be that guy, but that sounds neither healthy nor very economical.
edgemaster72@lemmy.world 20 hours ago
So, let’s call that a 12 pack a day in like 8 hours, given your estimated rate of 1.5/hour. Plus tea or water during the day before that. How do you have time to do anything besides drink, piss, and buy more beer? I’d like to think I get close to 128oz of water a day, and that’s usually all I drink for the whole day. I couldn’t imagine putting away 144oz of liquid in 8 hours.
remotelove@lemmy.ca 17 hours ago
You buy a couple full cases of beer at a time, for starters. 72 (or more) beers might last a few days.
Keystone is basically just a water-beer and chain drinking those is fairly easy since cheap lager is shit once it gets warm. There is motivation to drink, is what I am saying.
But yeah, his numbers are about average for most “serious” beer drinkers I know. TBH, I am surprised that you are surprised. However, I didn’t grow up in a very healthy environment and norms are just a matter of perception.

I know people will argue with me, but it really depends on what I drank, and not just how much. Even within the same type of alcohol, different brands or varieties give me very different results. For instance, Tullamore Dew (although it is delicious) gives me very nasty hangovers, far more than other Irish whiskeys.
But of course, there are other factors that are far more important. Obviously drink water, but you also need electrolytes (and no, Gatorade does not do this). Drinking on a full stomach and drinking slowly/steadily will also reduce your hangover the next day. And it probably doesn’t need to be said, but when it stops feeling enjoyable, stop drinking. Whether it’s because the party is winding down or because the smell makes you gag, you don’t always need to have the next drink.
remotelove@lemmy.ca 18 hours ago
I absolutely can’t argue with what gives you worse hangovers. That’s between you and your body.
Gatorade absolutely does have electrolytes: sodium and potassium. The problem is that alcohol depletes many more than just those. Pedialyte isn’t much better with only the addition of chloride. If a person is a less than moderate drinker, water is likely just fine and any extra electrolytes would get pissed out anyway.
Nollij@sopuli.xyz 10 hours ago
The potassium levels are very low, to the point where it doesn’t make a difference. While there are different varieties, most only have 45mg. For comparison, a banana has 400+, and a cup of apple juice has 250. The human body requires 3400 per day for men, meaning 8oz of Gatorade only provides 1.3% of what you would need in a normal day, even less if you’re deficient.
Sodium is a bit higher, from 160-310mg of the daily recommended 2300. Even if we ignore the fact that most people have more than enough sodium, particularly the type that are drinking enough for a hangover, a cup of chicken broth has 950mg. In fact, some varieties also have more potassium than Gatorade.
IOW, you’d be far better off drinking some chicken broth and eating a banana than drinking Gatorade.

After 24/25 drinking more than 2 drinks guarantees I feel bad the next day. I noticed that if I want to drink that much, I have to drink earlier, before 8pm, drink water too, and space them out. If I drink 2-3 starting late at night 10pm or later I will feel horrible the next day.
mcscroef@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
Went back to light beer over IPAs. I also stop drinking 3ish hours before bed and switch to water. Normally wake up around 5am to pee and I’ll take ibuprofen if I still have a headache.

dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 23 hours ago
Depends how you drank.
In college when a heavy night could have meant sharing a 5th with one other person then switching to beer? A whole day or maybe 2. As an almost 40 something who had the third one and my lips tingled once? Gone by 9 am usually, unless I woke up to pee and drink 12 to 15 swallows of water then I wake up fine.
That puke and rally 21 to 28 was a glorious time, but you will never get it back lol.
AnAmericanPotato@programming.dev 1 day ago
About half a day. If it’s really bad, a full day.
But I don’t usually let it get that bad. Hydrating and eating properly before, during, and after a night of drinking will do wonders. Ideally, you should be hydrating all through the evening, not just chugging a liter or two at the end.
randombullet@programming.dev 10 hours ago
I drink a cup of water per drink and I’ll never get a hangover.
