Sebazz1 2 #1 March 24, 2004 I'm not sure exactly when it happened. I noticed it only sometimes and thought it was just some strange anomoly. But then more recently its frequency has increased to an alarming rate. Yes my tolerance seems to be fading away quickly. I now suffer from hangovers from just small amounts of alcohol. Where as in the past I could drink like a wild crazed Viking and party until late late late in the evenings with little or no suffering. Recently I find myself unable to function the next day after any hard liquor. WHAT IS HAPPENING!!! Dear me this is horrible... I just, oh man where did it go!? Am I... am I.. am I getiing old? Responsible? Why Why Why!? I'd do anything to get my tolerance back to what it used to be but,... alas... it may be hopeless, futile... Dear Tolerance, I miss you. Please come home. I promise to let bygons be bygons and we can start fresh. Love Seb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jarcie 0 #6 March 24, 2004 That happened to me in my early twenties. I doubt my tolerance was ever anywhere close to yours, but I had to start laying off. It can be fun being the only sober person at a party. Wanna do yoga instead? It gives you a wonderful, relaxed feeling, with no hangover.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites chaoskitty 0 #8 March 24, 2004 Sounds like you're not drinking enough. You have to get your body past the "small amount of alcohol" hangover in order to not have a hangover. Oh and if youre not drinking a big glass of water and taking 2 Ibuprofen before passing out, then youre a dummy and youre gonna have a hangover. Dont forget the other age-old cure... greasy cheeseburgers and a BIG Dr. Pepper with lots of ice. now.. there ya go.. well on your way to being old and fat, but feelin fine! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites rehmwa 2 #9 March 24, 2004 Me too. I can't drink beer so had to move to hard liquor though. Beer is just way to filling - rough on the system. The trick is to find that one liquor that doesn't give you the hangover and just stick with that. Most people it's usually vodka. For me - tequila Then you can continue to hide bottles around the house and at work and stay in tune like always. ...

Next thing you know you'll be saying that you get tipsy and horny off of a Midori sour. Still, I can offer some advice. First, drink some water - plenty of it - a couple of hours before you start drinking. Starting off hydrated will not only help you avoid problems, but the large volume of water will prepare your stomach to hold the alcohol (hopefully, you down it with nachos, wings, or some other barroom fare). We are aging, and thus must prepare ourselves for such things as self-abuse. A little preparation beforehand should help. Now, pound water and drink, dad raddit. My wife is hotter than your wife.
