The drifting in and out of consciousness sounds strange.I used to drink 2-3 times that amount on a night out and that didn't usually happen.Maybe you were spiked?Or you're not used to mixing drinks like that.I've known a couple of people who would get absolutely battered on not very much from mixing drinks.

Don't mix drinks, especially that excessively.

Are you used to drinking that much? Do you usually drink all of those things? A number of factors could've led to this (although I agree with others that it seems a bit of an extreme reaction), but yeah, mixing drinks like that will almost always end badly.

Now, when I got home from my New Years Party, I threw up. However, that was not all. From about 8 to 11.30 I drifted in and out of consciousness and spewed six times. I then got up, tried very slow to have some breakfast and then threw up again. I threw up again at 3.30.

This was undoubtedly the worse hangover I've ever had, but am I just bad at handling my drink or did I drink too much?... I had about 4/5 glasses of champagne, 3 beers, a vodka + irn bru, a shot of peach schnapps and two vodka shots...

So what do yall think?

Sounds like food poisoning. Mind you drinking that lassies cocktail of drinks..

It's because of how much you mixed drinks imo.

Alcohol is getting too much credit than it should get.
Learn to enjoy without it (or with a small amount), it's possible and even fun.

Incorrect that does not make you sick. Alcohol is one chemical substance

Excuse you mixing drinks is the only time I'm sick when drinking alcohol.

It is very rare that anyone sticks to one drink all night on a bender. Get real. We all mix drinks every week.

You were spiked, sue for compensation

Alcohol is one chemical substance but, unless you're drinking ethanol, drinks don't just contain alcohol.

Piling foamy beer onto a stomach full of vodka or wine will make you bloated and more likely to be sick. Sticking to purer alcohols will make you less likely to have a headache the following day. Them's just the facts.

Also drinking a litre of vodka with approx. 12 cans of red bull as mixer will **** your **** up for over a week. Protip.

this is why i recommend a half bottle of bells and 2 cans of lager for a normal Friday night

Oh yeah, definitely. But it has a stronger effect than if you'd only stuck to one.

If mixing drinks makes no difference, someone please tell me why I am drunker (including more ill at the time and more hungover) if I drink snakebite (bleurh,,,only when skint) than sticking to cider or lager?

[Withano]

I usually have a bottle of Sambuca for predrinks and that way I dont need to spend money in the club, I only mix when I run out of time in predrinks and only get to the club tipsy

[Braden]

Been there, done that.

Don't mix your drinks, and realise what your limits are. I don't think any hangover is worth the consumption of alcohol itself, and it's one reason for why I'm sober.

Cause snakebite is a mixture of cider and lager (well, it is at my uni - topped with blackcurrant juice to dilute it)

It gets me pretty drunk too. In fact, as far as I'm aware straight snakebites (without the top) are actually banned in a lot of places for that very reason. I remember when I came home from uni and went out a couple of years ago I asked if they did them in this bar, and the woman told me 'we don't, but I can give you a half pint of cider and lager and you can mix them together if you like, I'm just not allowed to do it for you'. No word of a lie, it's the only drink I had for the rest of the night it was that lethal

[armand.kay]

Just might be a bad night for you.

Well yeah, I always thought mixing made everything worse. But apparently it doesn't

Also snakebite with black is diesel here. A few bars won't sell it for the same reason.
