time. the ONLY cure if you are fucked up.
if you're not too bad, greasy food and caffiene will fix you up quick smart.

best, a big smoothie that has everything in it...
1 carrot
1 tomato
1 egg
tobasco
salt
pepper
lots of orange juice
tiny bit of tonic water or lemonade to get the fizz
pinch of nutmeg...
sounds rancid but is the best ever
im drinking one now, had my works x-mas party last night!
also a big greasy fry up
drink a heap of water before you go to bed the night before and smack down a double does of multi vitamins too, this helps hydrate you head and starts flushing any toxins out of your system and the vitamins are just good for you and help your system recover.
i know it's a bit late for that now though, so just do the standard greasy breaky and some barocca (SP?).

I'm with you Ty. You REALLY should drink something like 1Ltr to 2Ltrs of water BEFORE you sleep. My lovely buddy Brooke and I finsihed off a couple of bottles of wine last night and would have been paying for it, but we drank water. If i was you, sip water for awhile, have a cool shower and try to eat something greasy abit later. WHATEVER you do, don't touch things like Milk, cheese or Dairy.
Brooke suggests that you go and throw up, should work like a charm. So there you have it. Enjoy the hangover man, i never have had one, i hope it's worth it.

Cold water does it for me. Some of the worst I have cured by going kayaking in frigid water, takes your mind off it. So since cold water probably doesn't exist in Australia, probably a cold shower.
oh spewing is funn...the taste,smell, and that feeling of ur mouth watering seconds before you unleash a toxic mix of alcohol, stomach acid, the carrots u had no idea u ate, and lunch,
and once u pop u dont stop!

There are only 2 hangover cures that work.
1) Sleep and water.
2) Get up and start drinking again.
2) Get up and start drinking again.
that definately does it
especially when camping nothing like 3 beers to start the day
to get the headache away
then again thats the first step to alcoholism

If you want it to go away, eat bannanas
2) Get up and start drinking again.
That has scientific basis too... doesn't cure the hangover as such, just delays it.

No, you can actually cure/prevent it... if you taper your drinking off slowly.
drink a heap of water before you go to bed the night before and smack down a double does of multi vitamins too, this helps hydrate you head and starts flushing any toxins out of your system and the vitamins are just good for you and help your system recover.
i know it's a bit late for that now though, so just do the standard greasy breaky and some barocca (SP?).
pop a berocca before bed as well. make sure you have plenty of water, i read that for each drink you have, you should have a glass of water. i know this isn't likely to happen, so just drink a fair bit before bed.
as for the berocca before bed, i hit the booze pretty hard at schoolies recently, every night, and i only had two bad hangovers (ie the 2 days i didn't leave the room till 4, when i started drinking again.) for the week, i swear having a berocca before bed and when i woke up really helped!

I only just started to get hang overs recently. It's gay!
If you go to bed after you have sobered up a bit that helps me, infact I don't think I've ever had a hang over when I've been to sleep just a little pissed.
As for water, grab a drink bottle or big glass and drink it until you do eventually fall asleep/pass out and just re-fill it as soon as it is empty. If you are lazy, just act so pissed that you can't walk and pretend if you move you will chuck (which you probably have already) and you will get an abundance of people offering to get you a glass of water..... Works for me.
or come post lots of random shite on farkin... THAT will help with ur hang-over... or get you banned :?

Everyone who's said water is right and like Em, I've never really had a bad hangover, I've been incredibly drunk and sick and passed out, but by the time I wake up it all seems to be pretty good. I think the closest I've ever come to being hungover was after my yr12 formal. I'd been drinking soft drinks all night (diahretics) and then drove back to the hotel and got stuck into the good stuff. I think I only had 4 or 5 drinks, and crashed out, but I was having the strangest dreams and spent half the morning wandering around the room and in and out of bed trying to find another wheel for the car so I could get the girls home... :? ....felt pretty crook when I got up too, but some water sorted that out pretty quick.

Best ive found...... Make sure your multi-vitamin is abslolutely loaded with Vitamin B. If you have no vitamins handy eat vegimite BEFORE you go to sleep.

err... beers made from yeast(?)...
drink beer!
my solution:
drink 2-3 (try for 4) litres of liquid before bed... I'll grab a powerade or something on the way home, a good feed before bed helps too. As do the vitamin supplements.
If I have a kebab and a cup of lassi (this mad yoghurt drink the kebab shop sells) on the way home, followed by a few litres of water/gatorade at home, and stay up for an hour or so doing mindless shit (such as spamming forums), all before I go to bed, I'll wake up feeling pretty good.
The next morning, sugar helps, so eat some lollies, drink more water, and my favourite part, eat as much greasy crap as you can. Zinger bacon+cheese burgers are a winner, and depending how masochistic I am, something spicy like a good curry really sorts me out the next day.

damn toilets smell !!
damn toilets smell !!
could this be coz the alcohol affects ur aiming?

OMG !! It's a diuretic !! Liek Wow !!
And, nothing wrong with getting up early to take a piss, it's a nice, releiving feeling. Sometimes excessive sleep isn't always the answer, I've found if I get up and trudge to work I don't feel as bad as I would if I slept in then watched TV, but maybe being active just takes your mind away from the pain.

Yeah, I think he brings half of it back on his shoes.

i go the vegemite toast and orange juice (if u spew this is the best way to replace ur stomach acid) but if u replace your body fluid quick as posible and the day will not be so bad but get some maccas in ya pluss the black doctor (coke). its the best when your still drunk in the morning coz u just start drinkin again. if u want to make ur mates spew on a hang over make them smell what they were drinking the night befor.... its gross

Water is ace, get home maggoted, drink a shit load of it an you'll be set in the morning.
And a flat beer in the morning helps to ease hang overs too.

Water and two asprin before bed and again on waking up if youve really done a job on yourself. Anti inflamitorys work even better but they are bad for you. You get a hangover because you are dehidrated and also your brain swells a bit,. Asprins are a type anti inflamitory which helps stop the swelling. A big greassy feed is good as well.

i have only ever had 1 hangover and thats coz i didn't eat a farkin thing.
I woke up the next morning and threw up pretty bad and i couldn't eat untill late that afternoon.
I had my 18th the other day and i got shitfaced.
6 strong cocktails and then 5 strongbow ciders.
I drank a bit of water and didn't sleep (mainly due to being pre occupied) and i was fine in the morning.
But those who were hungover found that the bacon, eggs, sausages and waffles w/ ice cream fixed them right up.
Water and greasy food or another drink does it best i think.

Go to hospital and get a saline drip (like 600mls) and you'll be fine. A mate of mine is a nurse aid so she hooks me up occasionally :)
Otherwise, drink again and your liver will stop breaking down the methanol and start working on ethanol again, which will delay the hangover for a bit. If you just slow down your drinking like Socket said, you'll avoid the hangover altogether.
If all that sounds like too much work, go the Powerade and Bacon and Egg McMuffin.

See Sig
i've heard of eating greasy food before and obviously alot of people talka bout it but how does it actually work?
1 x Portugese chicken burger with bacon & tomato form OGALO in Kensington
1 x Prawn Rissole
1 x Chicken Rissole
1 x 600ml Coke
Consume quickly between 11am & 1pm, eating only on the outside tables, preferably with good music pumping from your car that is parked diectly out front of store. Upon consumption drive to nearest beach and lie in the water.
Hangover gone ;)

This is by no means a cure, but more a prevention method... Before you go to bed, or pass out drink 2liters of water, this will help to keep you hydrated during the night, even if you need to piss once or twice :P
A better idea, is to drink water every second drink, i.e. 2 pots of beer, 1 of water, 2 of beer, etc... You will still get the effects of alcamahol, but without the hang over (a bad one anyways), still drink water before bed though.lol.

I used to pride myself on the fact that I never got hangovers, but those days are gone unfortunately.... DAMN!
A few people have rightly said that drinking a fair whack of water before sleeping helps, but eating something (bread and grainy stuff works best) aswell as drinking lots of water is the ticket. Unfortunately whenever you get drunk enough to really need to do this the most you tend to either pass out or forget.
