    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.

    Depends on my previous hydration and if I had some water in between drinks. Never had one that lasted more than a dayoif feeling fuzzy and out of it.

    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.

      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.

        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.

          My surprise is more at the quantity and rate of fluid intake regardless of the choice of beverage. But I don’t really spend my time around people that drink alcohol much (or people in general) so maybe I shouldn’t be surprised.

    Don’t drink quite so much.

    Seriously, hangovers are a sign of excessive drinking. Last memorable one I had was 16 years 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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
