Symptoms of hangovers and hangover definition

How do you know when you have the very definition of a hangover? You have the classic symptoms of course. What? Yes it's really that obvious.

Party

Just in case you're confused, read the following to check out if you really do have all of these symptoms. Knowing more about these may also help you better understand more about the causes of that next day feeling.

The Symptoms

1. Dryness of the mouth

Severe dehydration may wake you up with the dryest mouth ever. So dry in fact that it sometimes feels like a sandpaper coated rat has slept in there, and your mouth attracts the dust and particles in the air while you sleep. Nice.

2. Horrible teeth

Your teeth could have a coating of sugar from a cocktail or final vodka coke drink. Of course, you naturally forgot to brush them before sleeping too. I bet you enjoy feeling the sandpaper like inside of your front teeth with your tongue that already resembles a 10 year old slipper!

3. Headache

We all know the pounding, thrashing, monster of a deathly headache. Caused by the combination of a lack of vitamins & minerals, dehydration and possible congeners in your drink. A classic symptom. Enjoy your day!

4. Bad Stomach

Your stomach is feeling unstable and rebellious from last night's strong drinks on an empty stomach. It may make you vomit or you have diarrhea, or both. Have a great day!

5. Red eyes

Yes your eyes can actually get dehydrated too, leaving them all red and veiny and looking smooth for that lunch date the next day with your new girl/boyfriend or his/her parents. Don't worry, you'll make a great impression.

6. Tiredness

Given that excessive alcohol consumption means you don't actually sleep properly, at least for the first few hours after collapsing on your bed; it's hardly suprising you feel like you only slept 8 minutes. In addition to this, alcohol consumption can deplete your blood/sugar level, which can make you feel even more tired. Surprised that you feel like donkey dung? You shouldn't be!
