What's really funny is that my Mother, who herself doesn't drink, advised me to try this!
So anyone want to come by and get schnockered with me? LOL

If you must get drunk here are some tips:

Brandy bad, makes you very sick & you'll feel like s*** the next day.

Try clear liquor like vodka or rum, dark liquors make you feel worse

Prepare, Prepare, Prepare - drink 2 times your normal intake of water & take 2 advil an hour before imbibing. I've also heard a glass of milk right before you drink keeps you from throwing up, but I'm lactose intolerant so I've never tried this.

Drink slowly, as soon as you start to feel drunk, stop drinking & start drinking water.

Do not smoke cigarrettes (a joint is okay ) while drinking it will make your headache worse the next day.

Drinking can be a good way to let go of some tensions, it'll bring your inhibitions down so you can deal with some issues you might of been to proud to, but if you get hammered & throw up or have a really bad hangover all the good benefits are cancelled out by the bad. Be careful & do it will someone you trust to see you at your most vulnerable.
