And listen to lots of really loud noisy music.

I have De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas on now.  Hearing your pulse is worse in silence than when music is being played at a moderate level. 

DMDS- Good for what ails you.

I have a sore ear/infection or something. Mildly annoying but there are times when I can feel/hear my pulse in the ear.  Just in my right.  That is very annoying.   

Ugh I think I accidentally scratched my ear drum with a cotton bud and I had tinnitus in the right ear for several weeks. It only cleared up a few days ago. It was two different tones and would veer between the two like a siren. That was a nightmare getting to sleep for those few weeks. I had to put music on quietly just to drown it out and save me falling into madness.

I do have mild tinnitus in general, but that is more like loud air lol. This new one was hardcore! Thank fuck it got better.

Started drinking at 2pm on Sat for what was meant to be a casual day drink, got completely hammered all day, spent the entirety of Sunday in bed, and am now in work on day 2 of a godawful hangover.

I wasn't even out with friends, just a casual few planned to unwind at home!

Horrendous. I'm almost scared to drink at this point .  For the love of God won't someone invent a goddamn hangover pill?!

My current tricks:
Dioralyte before and after you go out.  A healthy light breakfast rather than grease, even just porridge or toast, grand.  A short walk, I mean just fucking anything to get outside and get the blood moving.  Ibuprofen.  Tea with milk and sugar.  Water.  Cruel Headache - cold wet cloth across the forehead, rotate to the back of the neck every now and again.  Half a Xanax if the evening is crushing the heart out of you but the rest generally does the trick so this emergency button hasn't been smashed in for a few years now.  I basically do all of the above now if I session at all unfortunately if you're puking then tough shit you just have to puke your way through it but the cold wet towel is an invaluable resource for survival.

God I fucking love day drinking it is the very best drinking but I haven't done it in so long.  The effect is less in winter but ideally you would want to be well into it right in time for sunset and the weather should be bright and dry (warm is not required).  That fuckin feeling lads ah jesus it is the best.

Must get some of that Dioralyte. I'm down to a six pack of cans in front of the tele on my nights off as spirits kill me these days, never puke ,just fatigue for days and everything tasting like shit, but I've an Xmas party coming up and I'm fucking dreading the aftermath of that because who can stay on beer at those cunting things . I have told myself I'll leave early but best laid plans and all that. Last year I landed home to find the door locked and me roaring to be let in only to finally realise it was fucking 9am and everyone was out. Ah man, horror show. I'll be down to the chemist for some of that stuff this week. Slainte!

Stop, ye fuckers. I'm already dreading being hungover on Sunday. The missus is away at a hen do so so I have 4 cans of Żywiec and 4 bottles of Modelo in for the night. I'll try to stay away from spirits but I know the whiskey will be calling me once I finish the beers!

100% agree about the day drinking, I like it way more than night out drinking these days. The danger is day drinking leading into also night out drinking and it just becoming an enormous sesh all in 

Here they have this pill called dimenhydrinate that is anti-nausea (which is what I get hit with worst with hangovers). That makes them a bit more bearable, but its side effect is heavy tiredness, so you're just a zombie all day anyway. Plus your head is still fucked in terms of all the usual guilt/shame/general wiped out-ness.

As I just mentioned in the fear thread, I'm living in a van at the moment, travelling up the east coast of Australia. Well that was until yesterday when some stupid old bitch on her phone rear ended me full speed and then smashed me into the truck in front. Van is a total write off, the whole thing is fucked, 2 weeks into a 7/8 week trip. 2 hour drive in a tow truck back to Sydney and now waiting here to find out what I can do. Fucking raging.

That sucks balls. Can you buy a shit car/van for 5 weeks and sell cheap before you fly out.

[Mithrandir]

Luckily it was a rental but I picked it up in Melbourne so hopefully now they can organize a replacement for me from somewhere in Sydney, just waiting to hear, all my stuff is still in the smashed up van too.

Motherfucker. Sorry to hear that.
