Anxiety when hangover is worse

[angharadp81]

Anxiety is worse when I'm hangover ! Hate it !and I now this ain't anxiety related but Everytime I drink a lot of alcohol , just before I go to sleep I start shaking uncontrollably like I'm having a fit and then it causes me to get really anxious I'm just curious what this is ? Because it's never happend before , anyone now ? If I drink loads of water before I go to sleep it won't happen ? It's wired !!!

Some alcohol can give you the shakes, especially the colourful stuff like cocktails and alcopops.

What do you drink?

[angharadp81]

I drink cocktails ! , sex on the beach , woo woo , drunken Santa, cheeky vimpto , and jäger bombs and stuff like that

[jessed03]

You like fire bombs? Those are so nasty but people seem to love them.

Jäger actually makes me kinda shaky, but after a load, I kinda don't care, I just fall into bed lol

What's a drunken Santa anyway?

[angharadp81]

Haha I love jägers ! It's horrible I got to drink loads of water before I go to sleep for it not to happen ! And last night I went out and I didn't drink any water and i was shaking like mad , it was like having a fit !! Scary haha ! I had it last night I've never heard of it either , just drank it, it tasted like purple rain

I completely agree!! Having a hangover when you have anxiety is the worst!!! I wake up the next day and I feel soooo lightheaded and dizzy! and it lasts all day!!! soo horrible!! Do you take any meds for your anxiety??

[jessed03]

Ouch!

What part of the world are you in? Is it daytime now, or does it still count as your night out?

I freakin' love how you may have broken your ankle, and your post still has so many haha's in it. That's awesome xD

I'm sure that my legendary "3 day hangovers" that all my friends know about me is because of how for years I have had anxiety issues but not known. I rarely drink nowadays, it seemed to me that the more often I drank the worse those hangovers were.. my body and mind is just generally better.

Tips I have accrued trying to deal with hangovers:
Choose a drink. And stick with it. Don't mix drinks!
Avoid sugary drinks as best you can, so yeah your alcopops and some cocktails, all the sugar and crap dehydrates you even further. The main feature of hangovers is because of the dehydration to your body, alcohol and excessive sugars do that to you!
My recommended drink is something like vodka + fruit juice. The huge hit of fruit juices isn't ideal, but its better than some artificial flavours.
Don't drink cider. That is death in a can.
Beer can be ok, just again stick to it, those hangovers always feel different though.
Just don't over do it!

These are all general tips for hangovers but as an anxiety sufferer, I follow this and it helps me a lot, I went from 3 day hangovers to 2 day.. usually now 1 day as long as I do it right. Watch your levels of drink, you can still have a bloody good time and be drunk by just drinking one kind of drink and you'll have fun and not want to die the next day.. trust me.
