i was just talking to my doc yesterday about how hangovers changed wildly between ages 29 and 39+

i just straight up quit drinking at a certain point. not even like a "i gotta stop this", just viscerally averse to even wanting a drink. the notion of making mornings more difficult becomes absurd, and i used to have a whole system of hydration and electrolyte replacement. shit like that just breaks down as one ages.

eventually the only actual tactic is to hook up to an IV in the morning. i know people who do that. healthcare workers with access, obviously. and, frankly, if your recreational drug use has you playing with needles, you can't pretend like it's casual anymore.

"Sweet summer child" comes from game of thrones and I am sick of hearing it said unironically in public. It makes no sense outside of game of thrones. It is such a Reddit phrase. "Oh but banme actually it shows up-" it has been used in literature about 2 times before game of thrones and neither of those times with the meaning it has in public use and of course not! Because it doesn't make sense outside of game of thrones.
Might as well be out here exclaiming Excelsior or Bazinga

does anyone ever say to you, 'sweet summer child'?

Yeah, I see their point. I drink a ton, and have never had a hangover.

That's because all I drink is water

In my early 20s I could put away beer like no tomorrow and be at work the next morning. All I'd need was a multivitamin and a big ass bottle of water and I was good.

Then in my 30s, one or two beers would give me a headache and I'd feel like crap several hours later. Then again at that point I drank maybe once a month, if even that.

drink more lol

Ah, youth.

Techbros will hear this and go "hell yeah, wanna sell me some of that young blood?"

I stopped getting hangovers mostly when I started taking a b vitamin (all the B vitamins) before going to bed when I knew i drank too much

Now i stopped getting hangovers because i don't drink anymore, THANKS LEGAL THC DRINKS

But based on the efficacy of b vitamins i think a big component of hangovers is a result of having pissed all of them out

Just make sure you you're drinking fluids to replace all that you're pissing out and stay away from wine, I still rarely get any repercussions.

daily binge drinking helped me stave off hangovers. never took the hair of the dog or got the shakes or anything. I just drank each night like it was my job. first two or three nights can be bad, but after that I could go for 12 drinks

The first time I drank, was when I was 19. I drank like 4 12oz whiteclaws and actually got hella hungover from that. I was never built to be an alcoholic.

I only take kratom these days and even I get a little hungover from it sometimes despite staying hydrated

I maybe had 1 single hangover in my life despite me getting blackout drunk a couple of times. That was all during teenage days and my early 20s though.

I dont really drink like that these days anymore though. I just stop after 2 drinks.
