How long are you drunk?

---

water helps, but it's not the cure

So, what causes the 'drunkness' (The stumbling and all that) Is it dehydration? or the chemical in the alcohol?

the alcohol

not only the alcohol, but other chemicals in the drink. Dark drinks like beer and whiskey give you a bad hangover if you drink lots. Vodka tends not to be so bad. Mixing drinks, aside from making you feel ill, often gives you a worse hangover. Of course, the best way to avoid hangovers is to stay drunk! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

umm it's the alcohol

In reply to: the best way to avoid hangovers is to stay drunk Wouldn't the best way to be not to drink at all

when I'm "buzzin" it tends to slowly wear away after a few hours. When I'm wasted, I generally pass out & then wake up feelin a lil better but still dizzy.

Has anyone here noticed that if you have a drink durring a hangover it really helps?

yes - the saying is "hair of the dog that bit you"

athough it might make you feel better, it probably isn't good for your recovering body!

I really don't want to promote unhealthy drinking... but for informational purposes (and since hangovers came up) there is a pill out called chaserz (or something like that) which prevents hangovers.
