I actually feel more refreshed this Monday after a bottle of Oxford Landing (Pinot Grigio). I was drinking a little bit yesterday in the evening but I think the difference is the wine. It’s not the first time I’ve actually felt better the morning after rather than hungover after a bottle of wine. Anyone-else experience this?

I mean, it’s a Monday morning and I actually feel more refreshed than grumpy. Must’ve been something special in that wine.

You sure it's not still in your system Redway? You can wake up not feeling the "drunk" effects of alcohol but still with a relatively high blood alcohol level. Once that's metabolised the hangover will hit .

Hangovers have always affected me more gastrointestinally than anything else (I’d puke it out of my system after a heavy night and then be okay) but since I started taking CBD even that is a thing of the past. I take Ibuprofen sometimes for something else so having that on standby helps. So I’m not even feeling hungover yet and I doubt I will.

My terrible affliction was that my hangovers were always hang-unders... I can't sleep drunk. So we'd all get in from a big night out, everyone would pass out drunk, and I'd just have to sit around watching TV or on the internet or whatever feeling horrific until I sobered up. Then I'd go to bed and sleep like a baby.

So depressants keep me awake, stimulants (caffeine) also make me calmer/sometimes even sleepy, and opiates have little to no effect on me.

The Internet insists this means I have pretty serious ADHD? .
