walker600 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 No point to this thread other then a general musing that the less often I drink the worse my hangovers seem to get!!! Maybe my body is telling me I need to drink more!! 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave9000 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Take a gander through Google to look at the physiology behind hangovers. It's frightening stuff especially if you care about yourself. I'm no wowser, but I now consider the hangover before I have my first drink. My behaviour is much modified! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valentine Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 <p>When I was young I could drink until the cows came home & then start again. The last bender I had was several years ago & it took me two days to get over it. On the rare occasions now that I imbibe I aim to get pleasantly mellow & then stop. If I go a couple of drinks beyond that a hangover starts setting in which is pretty weird but I guess my brain%2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissChris Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Hate to be a party pooper, but the latest advice is the maximum number of standard drinks is 4 per day with 2 clear days per week. For men. For women it is 2, again, with 2 clear days per week. Very recebt research indicates that there is NO safe level of alcohol intake in pregnancy. In my youth (and I was always a cheap drunk) I used to drink 2 glasses of water & take a multi B pill before falling into bed & never had a hangover. If you binge drink you run the real and increasing risk of acute pancreatitis each time you binge, with eventual insulin-dependent diabetes as well as a host of other physical effects. One of the first signs of alcohol related brain damage is difficulty in organising yourself. That's a higher order function. After that comes the short term memory loss, which is permanent as well. The only thing you can do is train yourself early to take your memory book, your glasses & a pen everywhere with you. Is it worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaoNow Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Recommendation: Move this thread to the "I drink too much" sub-Forum. (The Phuket TV regulars need more to think about than this, if they want to live up to their self-image.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact quite the opposite.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shot Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (The Phuket TV regulars need more to think about than this, if they want to live up to their self-image.) I'll assume thats humor. Because if it is, it's funny, almost pissed myself. If not, I would suggest having several beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
