To Avoid a New Year's Day Hangover, Drink Plenty (of Water)

Yep I haven't drank that much in my life before until that night at the bar. I drank so much lost count. I did not remember leaving the bar I woke up seeing myself on a couch at my friend's house throwing up on myself, In the morning I didn't want to go to work, I called my dad and he told me I had to come in because nobody would fill in for me. I had no choice to go in work I felt so sick to my stomach the whole day I couldn't stay awake. I looked so pale that day too didn't look like my own self, had fever the whole day at work and I don't know if I had a hangover more likey it was my stomach that was bothering me more. So then I asked my dad if I could leave early because I couldn't be around food it was just making me sick even more that when I went to the ER in the hospital.

Another thing, When my friend woke me up in the morning, I was naked only had on was my underwear. I freaked out wondering how did I end up like that? My friend told me she had to take my clothes off because I kept vomiting on myself while sleeping I don't even remembered vomiting on myself while sleeping. I had some on my hair too it was eeek! She was much a good friend spend half of her night taking care of me.

Your dad must not have known it was alcohol poisoning or he would not have made u work that day. From reading your post my stomach hurts just thinking aout what you went through. Yes, your friend was nice taking care of you. I wish there is more media out there to educate people on the symptoms of alcohol poisoning. I knew one is vomiting but didnt know about fever until now.

Yes, drinking more alcohol only helps resolve that dehydration. Coffee is the same thing. That's why people drink coffee cuz they have this assumption that it will make them feel better, when it does... by stopping the dehydration for a little bit. Drinking water will not make you dehydrated and helps you last longer. :thumb:

Makes sense...just believing that coffee would help can convince that it would.

wow.. you crazy!!! :crazy: mixing them all .. yikes!!!
it happened to me when i was 16 and had my first DRINK(s).. my sister's old best friend's ex bf had a party.. and he was a bar tender at the party as well... he kept giving me different drinks to sample, etc.. (they were all 23 at the time!).. i came home to my sister's apt.. woke up around 4 am ... :barf: alll over her bathroom while sitting on the porcelain as it was coming out of that hole too lol ... i was SOOO SICK (like cheri).. screaming for my sister and woke her up while sitting on the porcelain of god.. i was like OH GOD HELP ME I AM SOOOO DAMN SICK.. IT DAMN HURTS!! BLAH BLAH.. she freaked out.. and said.. OMG. I GOTTA CALL THE DAMN AMBULANCE!! she was white and scared like a ghost!! i said NO.. JUST HELP ME blah blah.. and kept puking.. she was just as STIFF AND COLD AS A ZOMBIE (remember i am her baby sister) finally about 2 hours later.. i got off of the porcelain.. left the bathroom.. guess what my sister did.. CLOSED THE DAMN DOOR telling me my mom will clean it up when she visited in a few hours.. lol
then i think around 11 or so.. my mom came to take us out.. when she saw me.. she was LIKE :squint: WHAT DID YOU DO?? (i looked shit and felt like shit from a MAJOR HANGOVER) so my sister told her what happened.. and showed her the bathroom.. she was like.. OH I HAVE TO CLEAN THAT UP?? with a sly smile and a snicker... my sister was like :Oops: YEA?? LOL she was a GREAT SPORT ABOUT IT.. CLEANED IT UP FOR US!! :angel: LOL..

That must have hurt ur stomach big time. When I was younger I used to drink more but as I got older (Im 44) I found that my body can no longer handle liquor as well as when I was younger. Now I can only drink one most of time and it was enough for me. I only drink like once a month..one drink. One time when I was at college my friend and I binged on one bottle of tequila..boy, we vomited into our own garbage pail for hours laughng it off...we were idiots, were we? lol Since that time I havent drank that much in a short time. That lesson was well learned. Everyone does nutty things in their youth right? wink

Did it help? From what I read, coffee makes it more dehydrated plus the effect of dehydration from alcohol. Need to fill up water.
I dunno if it will help everyone but it did help me a bit but what's more I stayed at friends for 3 hours until I was fully alert to drove home...
