hangover cure please?? !?

I used to be a very heavy drinker (on the verge of an alcoholic kind of drinking) but i stopped drinking heavily, and swapped my alcoholic beers for alcohol free beers, and just have the occasional drink with dinner or when im with friends.

but last night i got wasted! i dunno how much i drunk my mum kept refilling my wine, i was throwing up in the street etc etc

and this morning i feel rubbish! my old hangover cure was just to have some more drink and then slowly stop and switch to water and id feel fine again, but doing that now would ruin the whole point of not drinking as much, and will contradict everything ive worked for over the past couple of months.

so whats another hangover cure that i can use?? and fast! i really dont like this feeling!

Update:

well some good answers here, ive drunk easily 2 litres of water but keep having waves of nausea, luckily i have anti nausea pills, plus had two servings of olive oil with a pinch of salt and some bread, which did help abit, im feeling pretty weak and tired now, i shall choose a best answer tomorrow, as screen is spinning me out abit.

Here we go, a lesson you can use with all your drinking for the rest of your life:

Hangover ills are caused by your body not being able to filter out all the toxins in alcohol. So your first line of defense is to help your body filter it out. This means water.

How much water you need varies. And what you drink has a big effect on how toxic the alcohol will be. Mixing sweeter wines and beer in an evening of drinking is often a bad idea. Also, the darker the liquor (like Jager vs. vodka), the more severe its toxic effects. If you don't drink enough water or if you consume too intense of an alcoholic mix, your body can't filter out the toxins as well. Meaning you'll be stuck with them and all the bad things they can do after the fun wears off. Once the toxins get entrenched in your system, it's too late for water-drinking alone to cure them. They start working new evils that you'll have to fight. These toxins deplete your body's stores of important minerals and vitamins, which makes you feel like absolute crap. Your blood sugar is also low. Your stomach is irritated. You're dehydrated.

To help get rid of the toxins in your body after waking up with a hangover: Take a long shower, as hot as you can stand it. It will help your body sweat out a lot of these toxins. You'll be amazed how much better you feel.

Now, we need to replace all the vitamins and minerals, stabilize your blood sugar, and settle your stomach. The three miracle helps: honey, banana, Ovaltine chocolate milk.

Honey-- Helps stabilize your blood sugar. Provides nice doses of potassium and magnesium, which are severely depleted by alcohol, as well as some other minerals. Eat 3-4 tablespoons of it straight. It's a bit intense, but if you can keep it down, it will work wonders. Repeat every 20 minutes, or every time you wake up again. Even if you upchuck, as soon as you can bring yourself to it, try it again.

Banana-- Also helps stabilize blood sugar and provides you with much-needed potassium. Its smooth texture and relatively bland taste also helps soothe your unhappy stomach. Eat slowly.

Ovaltine-- Unlike regular chocolate milk mixes, Ovaltine has extra vitamins and minerals in it, which you need now. The milk helps soothe and settle your stomach and rehydrate your system. It's not the nasty stuff you remember from your childhood-- these days, the stuff has nice chocolatey taste. It's worth the few bucks to buy some to keep around. (I keep it around and drink it when I'm NOT hungover... since I'm rarely ever hungover in the first place anymore.)

The mega-cure: Get out your blender. If you need to, ask someone else to make this for you while you bury your head under a pillow to block out the blender sound. Toss in two handfuls of ice, a banana or two, a squeeze or two of honey, six or seven tablespoons of Ovaltine mix, and milk. It's best to start with just one generous splash of milk and then add more as needed, once the ice is chopped up and the bananas are mushed, to get the shake to a nice drinking consistency. Sip slowly and carefully, give your body time to absorb the nutrients, and go on about your life.

You can also choose to treat headache symptoms with regular old Tylenol or aspirin, and some people find relief by taking vitamin supplements as well.

Is there a quick hangover cure? It takes several hours to get your body in this kind of shape and unfortunately it takes time to recouperate.

I find that taking an Alka Seltzer, drinking lots of water, and eating something greasy like a cheeseburger and fries helps the process, but it doesn't happen instantly.

The main thing is to hydrate your brain and that requires lots of water.

Then you have the stomach issue. It's important to put some kind of food in your body so that it has something to use as fuel to get you through this.

Next time, if there is one, try drinking a quart of water before you go to be and eat a chocolate candy bar. The water will hydrate your brain and there is supposed to be something in the chocolate that helps prevent the hangover.

Best of luck to you, been there done that, miserable feeling. I hate it for you.

Your first contradiction was drinking too much this time. You should be able to be alert enough to tell your mom after a drink or 2 that you have had enough. If she doesn't respect your wishes them go home.

According to Food Dectectives on Food Network, there is no cure for a hangover only methods that are temporary but the symptoms keep coming back. The only "cure" is not to get into the situation.

Eat, sleep, drink fluids, take vitamins or soak in a hot tub. Hangovers have no other cure than to run the course of the day. There is no other cure other than time.

I always found B12 supplements to be really useful for getting rid of a hangover. I always used the gels that are inhaled nasally since they worked faster than the ones taken orally.

Try tea.

Sometime, if my hangover is really bad, I have a can of beer in the morning and the hangover is gone. Sound crazy but it may work for you cos it work for me.
