Chris Hart a student at SUNY Plattsburgh has tried a few methods to relieve his hangover. His craziest would be the time he jumped into a river. Hart was lying in bed and had gotten rather warm. He thought jumping into the river would cool him down. The worst part was his choice to jump in during the middle of the winter. “I thought it would help, but I still I had my hangover when I left the water,” said Hart.
The morning after a hard night of partying has to be the worst ending to a great night. When you wake up in the morning your head is pounding, your stomach is aching, and you’re barely able to stand your hangover. Oh, what a night you must have had, but now it’s time to face the consequences of having that extra beer. The hangover has kicked in, and you need a solution, helping you get on your feet and out of bed fast.
Many people have weird random quirky ways to relieve that morning after feeling.
Some people believe that if you just start drinking again you’ll bypass the hangover. Melissa Smith a student, tried that one after a hard night of partying. Smith went to the bars one Friday night. There was a 13 dollar cover fee for all the beer you could drink from eight to twelve that night. “I was really excited, I planned on getting my money’s worth,” said Smith. After entering the bar the rest of her night is a blur, “all I remember was coming home,” said Smith. The next morning, she woke up with two slices of bread, a vitamin, and a bottle of water on her bed side table. Smith downed the water ate, the bread and took the vitamin, and laid in bed for an hour. Her pain didn’t subside so she headed towards her kitchen to see if she could find some relief. In her fridge she found a 40 oz bottle of Bud Light, opened the top and began drinking again. “I got drunk again, and stayed drunk for the rest of the day,” said Smith. Smith’s hangover never came, even though she woke up the next morning feeling fine.
Many people do random things to cure their hangovers. Other random ones were, after a night of whisky sours, Sarah Huvane was told that she would need something sour to cure her hangover pain. The next morning she mixed a glass of orange juice with a sour warhead. To prevent his hangover pain in the morning a student told of a guy friend who relies on the menstrual pill Midal to give him relief. Others believe a scope of peanut butter before bed, and you’ll wake up feeling fine.
Another method Chris Hart’s uses to treat his hangover is greasy food. Hart told a story of a long night of partying where he drank half a table keg overflowing with vodka, red bull, and cranberry juice. “I can’t remember two hours of that night” said Hart. Hart’s problem though was he was having lunch with his mother the next morning. “I woke up with the worst hangover I have ever had.” At lunch that day, with his mother, he ordered the biggest, greasiest cheese burger he could find. “I believe the grease helps to soak up all the alcohol left in your stomach,” said Hart, when asked why he eats grease foods. “It’s not that easy to get it down but it does the trick for me.”
Many will do anything to prevent that morning after feeling, after one hell of a night.
How to Deal With a Hangover
- Drink plenty of water
- Taking a bit of a sports drink like Gatorade and mixing it with water
- Banana; the potassium will help balance electrolytes
- Stager drinks
- Alternate between alcoholic drinks and non-alcoholic
- Make sure you eat something before drinking (if you don’t eat yes you’ll get drunk quicker but you’ll get sick and have a hangover.)
