See, I hate alcohol. I’m an addict. The “cure” for a hangover has always been more booze, get the good feelings going to block out the bad. My “hangover” is withdrawal and the only thing to fix it is opiates which caused the sickness, OR medications to combat the side effects. Decongestant, anxiety meds, and a anti-histamine to try to knock you out. That’s all that I could really do.

I used to work at a liquor store. I had to quit after about 10 months because I just couldn’t sell alcohol to alcoholics anymore. It was so so so sad to see the same people every day, and for some, several times a day. They looked so defeated. I just wanted to give them a hug instead of ringing in their purchase.

Saturn return! Embrace sobriety! The rewards on the other side are so worth it

I am a retired Coroner and nothing helped learning and staying sharp more than autopsies, exposure to the real thing. Always was a honour and humbling to witness these wonders.

EDIT: I didn't expect a single reply when I wrote this. I just wanted to speak about my experience and I appreciate everyone's kindness. I have reached the 2 year mark and am healthier than I every was before in my life. I have lost 40 lbs. have taken martial arts for 20 months, am fit, and have received 2 promotions at work. I appreciate you all and hope everyone has a great day. Original post: I was a heavy drinker for almost 20 years. I am currently 12 days away from 1 year sober. Not a day goes by where I do not want a drink and the struggle doesn't go away, I just continue to deal with it day by day. Kudos to anyone that continues the journey, whether it is day 1 or 1000, day 1 for the umpteenth time. Whether you are in recovery or if you want to quit and are thinking about it, know that people out there that do not know you at all are rooting for you.

My exhusband (married 19 yrs, together 23) just passed from cirrhosis of the liver. He was a heavy drinker for at least 17 yrs. We have 2 kids that are both in their early 20s and one grandchild. His body couldn't process the toxins. The ammonia would build up and cause swelling in his brain. He had constant fluid retention and his feet and legs were severely swollen. He had jaundice. He was in and out of the hospital numerous times. He was put in assisted living and was only 55 yrs old. His kidneys started failing more and more. He would have times where he was not coherent due to the toxins building up and would need to go back to the hospital. He passed on Oct. 29, 2023. We miss him so much. 😢

I've battled drinking from the age of 25 to 45 because I found myself living for the weekends and not happy with my choice of work carrier. I would drink through the week to cope with life and binge drink with friends on weekends when possible. At 45 I emotionally knew I was failing in life by my choices and actions from alcohol. At 47 I found my passion for the outdoors to be more true to myself, so I started a tube channel for fishing and camping. I am happy to say that I found myself before loosing everything I had embracing me like my wife and kids to the true friends that were not abusers. I can stay sober for weeks now and choose when and how much I want to drink if I choose to with friends. Life really begins when you understand!

I'm a 23 year old woman. I've been an alcoholic since I was 18. Probably drank more alcohol in my teens than most people do in a lifetime, was homeless for 2 years and consumed nothing but dry bread and alcohol for 4 years... I'm SO anxious about the damage I'm doing every day. But I have zero coping mechanisms, so what so I do to cope with that anxiety? I drink more. I would find it funny if it wasn't so damn terrifying. But I'm slowly getting better. Usually go a few weeks without drinking now, then a few where I do, then a few where I don't. I worked my way up to 50 days for the first time this year. And just a week ago, I had a month under my belt also. I think for the first time in over half a decade, I've gone a year where I had as many sober days as I had drunk ones. I'm proud of how far I've come. I've been a homeless advocate for 3 years, even made it on national television once?? And I finally, finally went back to college a week ago. Studying so I can become a proper social worker. I know how important it is to have someone be compassionate, to just be listened to without judgement. If you're currently homeless or addicted, hang in there buddy. The only constant in life is that nothing is permanent. This will pass and there WILL be better days ahead. You are worthy of every good thing that comes your way. I love you and I believe in you.

Or numb your ability to negotiate an extension on your lease. $2 a day for a beer may not seem like much compared to rent, but it repeats more frequently. $2 per day becomes $14 per week or $62 per month and then $730 per year, and that not taking interest into account. I don't know your situation, so I'm not making presumptions about why you're facing homelessness. But when money is that tight, small purchases do matter, because they add up.

Love this video! I’ve been sober living now for almost 11 months, and I’m now curious how and why alcohol effects the body physiologically.

My mother died from Liver cirrhosis back when I was a teenager, since Covid lockdowns I started consuming a lot of Ale which in turn. I gained a lot of weight and put me into morbid obesity. The last six weeks I’ve cut my alcohol intake in half and started learning to eat healthier and start walking! My recent health scares have seriously made me start to change my ways. Why I never looked at what it did to my mum I have no idea she never made her 50th.

I'm a nurse and when I was still in training I was treating a patient with cirrhosis of the liver (he was an alcoholic). When I first met the guy he was okay - obviously not healthy but his condition was bearable. A few days later I was doing my rounds again and the guy suddenly wasn't capable of coherent speech anymore. I obviously freaked out because I thought he might have had a stroke or something and ran to get my mentor. She calmed the patient down a bit and then took me outside the room. She explained to me the shift in personality and cognitive function. This is what happened to the man: When the liver is scarred from the constant alcohol influx it can't properly function anymore. Toxins like ammonia can't be metabolised correctly and start to accumulate in the blood. Once these reach a certain concentration they will cross the blood-brain-barrier. This happened to the patient. The toxins entered his brain and severely influenced his speech and mannerisms. The toxins will also saturate around the skin, making patient very itchy and their skin irritable. Sadly, the effects of livercirrhosis don't end there. Since the liver is such a big organ and essentially our detox-station it needs to filter a lot of blood at once. To that end it is suffused by the portal vein which "collects" all the blood from your abdominal region. But since the livertissue is scarred the blood from this vein can't flow into the liver as fast as it wants/needs to. This causes the pressure in the vein to build up and the blood to accumulate. This leads to varicose veins in your stomach and esophagus. Sudden pressure or increase in temperature (such as a hot bath) can rupture these veins which can kill you quite quickly. The high pressure in the portal vein also literally presses out the fluid components of the blood which collect in the abdominal region. These are the "beerbellies" you might know. They hinder movement and the pressure can even cause shortness of breath. There are EVEN MORE problems and symptomes caused by liverchirrosis but I think I got the point across: Don't abuse alcohol because it will wreck your liver and your liver will take terrible vengeance on you.

And…(another RN, dealt with end stage cirrhosis in ICU)…they look like orange 10 month pregnant people that don’t have any idea what they are doing and try to climb out of bed, sometimes get combative, sometimes end up on the ventilator as they go through acute alcohol withdrawals. Bellies are drained with large bore needles (5- 6 liters) periodically as the “ascites” collects from the failed liver. This can be risky and cause cardiovascular complications. The muscle mass and malnutrition leaves nothing but bones with skin on top, tube feeding or food through the IV has to be managed carefully. Medicine and treatment at this point are chasing the tail, and waiting to see if the patient recovers as the body detoxifies. So sad to watch and hard to manage.

@@Onk3lM0 yes, you are absolutely correct on the amount to drain. We had a physician that did one and put the patient into danger by taking off too much at one time. I don’t know what he was thinking. The patient’s BP dropped and they started to go into hypovolemic shock. With the ascites, there is too much pressure on the vessels, especially the inferior vena cava, and if you take the pressure off, there is a sudden drop in venous blood return to the heart. It can cause cardiac arrest. And yes, this type of “chasing the tail” is very disheartening. I have learned to just keep these patients comfortable, because essentially it is palliative care. So sad. We can’t fix everyone. I also take the perspective that this can allow people an opportunity to make amends with their family or those close to them. Sometimes it is a good time to address code status, as they are faced with reality. So many people do not understand resuscitation, and so many times we don’t address it.

I just celebrated 10 years sober last month and I was a hard core, late stage alcoholic who had to drink around the clock to avoid going into massive withdrawal. To anyone who believes they have a drinking problem or knows they're an alcoholic but can't stop, please get help. Don't live in shame and embarrassment for years like I did. It never, ever goes away on it's own once you've passed a certain point and the consequences get worse and worse. I never thought I'd be able to be a person who didn't need a drink. I couldn't imagine not wanting or needing to drink. But after some hard and honest work, I put together a week, then a month, then a year. And I kept doing that because I was proud of myself and I was healthy again. Now, 10 years later, I'm still doing the deal. I've been through some of the roughest, most painful life experiences and never wanted to drink over them because I know that, for me, it would never be just one or two. As we alcoholics say, "One is too many and one thousand is never enough." If you can relate to that, there's help out there and lots of people ready to support you. ♡

Alcohol has been clinically proven to cause 7 different types of cancer and is recognized as the #2 most carcinogenic substance right after cigarettes. There's a reasonably good chance that your younger brother developed brain cancer as a consequence of his heavy drinking. Sorry for your loss.

My ex was a chronic alcoholic starting before I met him at age 25. By age 40, I had to leave him because, by the way, it WAS NOT so silent. He continued on and off for the next 22 years, undergoing several hospitalizations/surgeries on his liver and pancreas, before dying of liver disease at age 62. He wasn't so silent during those 22 years, either. He managed to drive away and keep away all of his children during that time. Alcohol ruins so much more than a body.

This is the first time I actually cried over an alcohol related youtube video. I feel so sorry for my body having to go through all what alcohol does to it. I think and I hope that this was the last thing I needed to see to make me quit completely. Thank you ❤

I just survived a very terrifying severe alcohol withdrawal syndrome. I was rushed to a hospital 2 months ago. Tremors, Anxiety, seizures, insomnia. But the most terrifying was the hallucinations. It’s called the delirium tremens (DT’s) I thought I was gonna die or going crazy. Thanks to my doctor, i’m so happy and thankful I survived. I’m 2 months sober now.

5:00 something worth mentioning. The majority of alcohol is absorbed in your small intestine. Alcohol will irritate your stomach lining and cause the pyloric sphincter to close. Carbonated beverages relax the pyloric sphincter however. So if you take a couple shots your stomach which absorbes about 20% of the alcohol gets irritated and closes the pyloric sphincter. Chase the shots with a beer or club soda, and it releases into you small intestine with so much more surface area and you get smashed pretty quickly.

When I went through my Special Forces medical training back in the 1980s, we were given the opportunity to assist autopsies when they were being done at the hospital in Ft. Sam Houston. One of the most memorable events of my life was when we did an autopsy on a middle-aged woman who was an alcoholic and had Hepititis C as well. She died of an aneurism. We had assisted on several autopsies up to this point, but when we opened this woman it was shocking. Her organs looked like they'd been put in a microwave on high for twenty minutes. Her liver was completely necrosed. It was just a black piece of lifeless meat. Her belly was full of more than a gallon of foul-smelling ascitic fluid. Her lungs were blackened coal from chain smoking. Her innards were so disgusting, I thought everyone should see something like that to show them the effect of abusing your body with cigarettes and alcohol. I stopped smoking after that experience, and I drink very little alcohol to this day.

18 years of heavy drinking here. Liver enzymes still perfect. Hangover cure is acetylated glutathione in acid resistant capsules, fasting salts, and water. I recommend not eating food for an hour so it's able to get into the small intestine quicker (and before the acid resistant capsule dissolves while still in the stomach). It's MUCH better if you manage to remember to ingest this before going to sleep. Can do night and morning for max results. The glutathione is the rate limiting anti-oxidant produced by the liver he mentioned that breaks down acetaldehyde into acetate, hence the supplement. Beware of other forms of glutathione that will likely be destroyed by stomach acid before being absorbed. Acetylated definitely and acid-resistant capsule ideally. You're welcome. I suffered a decade of hangovers so you don't have to.

Just love your delivery on all videos so thank you. Hangover cure for me was Andrew’s liver salts. Thankfully the older I became the less I indulged in alcohol .

I recently had the pleasure of having experienced a moderately-sized hangover from a very mild drinking session. It was right before my body started winding up to fight a cold that I technically likely caught the day prior without realizing it. Also, at my age, hangovers are absolutely to be expected and I will say that at one point a couple of years ago, I was so drunk that I started vomiting. Rewinding back to the first instance of nausea, I started drinking as much water as I possibly could get down for the purpose of changing my blood alcohol percentage. That was about an hour and a half prior to the event, so there was plenty of time for absorption. Next morning, the hangover was extremely light. Either my stomach had evacuated contents that would contribute to it, or I was onto something.

Hangover symptoms are largely due to being dehydrated. The drinking of a significant amount of water meant you weren’t as hungover. It likely made little difference in the actual metabolism of the alcohol you had already drank (aka: it didn’t change your drunkenness or your BAC).

My cousin was 15 I was 17 when we discovered that rush liquor gave us, we soon started getting black out drunk every night I'm in my 30s and still drink every day

I was a serious drinker. Stopped Mother’s Day 2000. It’s what I gave my wife for Mother’s Day. My commitment to her and our relationship was paramount. This Mother’s Day it will be 23 years sober. I design for a living. My creativity soared about 30 days after I quit. I’ve made millions since that day.

Spare some change?

Back when I was an alcoholic, drinking with fatty foods, like pizza, burgers, etc, and drinking as much water as I did alcohol worked to keep my hangover away or minimal, depending on how much sleep I got. Needless to say, that gave me another issue entirely on top of the substance abuse: obesity. Currently sober and back to a healthy weight. Oo-rah!

Pickles, particularly dill pickles. I tell people at work to eat a snack bag of dill pickle slices then drink the juice; an hour later and that person is thanking me for it.

I stopped drinking 11 years ago and I'm really cheering for the people who are using medical info like this to boost their motivation! Alcohol nearly destroyed my body, from gall stones, liver disease, cataracts and obesity (metabolic syndrome) and herniated discs, arthritis and sciatica from carrying 288lbs of alcohol weight (and McDonald's hangover cures lol). I truly hope the best for everyone walking this hard road. 💞

Alcohol isn't what destroyed your body, it was purely yourself. I never blame alcohol if I drink so much that I end up puking, I ALWAYS end up blaming myself. You destroyed yourself using alcohol, simple as that. It's like eating 20 McDonalds cheeseburgers willingly and then afterwards blame McDonalds over you getting fat😂😂

Awesome Video. Using the cadaver made it easier to understand. My Mom passed 2 years ago and left her body to science. I will to. As a nurse, I understand how important donating your body to science and donating your organs is essential.

This presentation was so informative and understandable. Don’t I wish that I had seen this 50 years ago!

The "Fear" the next day killed it for me eventually. Being convinced I was about to die after almost every time I drank was enough to knock it on the head for good. Blood pressure would shoot up dangerously high for the following several days after a session and almost ended up in hospital. Weight also ballooned to almost 250 pounds. That was last year and now on the road to recovery.

10 hours of being sober, this is a record. Got to start from somewhere.

Former Navy Corpsman, so same solution, 2 McGriddles three hashbrowns coffee and an extra cup for water. Also, drinking a glass of water between each alcoholic drink helps prevent hangovers... Although, you do pee more.

If you are watching this video and you are trying to quit drinking - keep trying. I am 5 years sober. I self medicated with alcohol in an attempt to avoid working through trauma. It was a temporary escape. Wherever you go, there you are. I’d drink to avoid worry at night, and I would wake up feeling more anxious each morning. Alcohol left me incapable of pursuing healing or generating good in my life as it so negatively affected my mental health. My therapist told me once that ‘alcohol sets your nerves on fire.’ Meaning you are more agitated and struggle to react and conduct yourself in a healthy manner when you abuse it. So true. I tried to get sober many times, over the course of at least two years before I finally just got too tired and somehow finally stopped for good. Alcohol cost me more than I ever paid in money - it cost me a relationship, time I could have grown and achieved, and kept me from being present with my son. I speak plainly with my son about the dangers of alcohol and his family history of alcoholism so he can understand what is happening if he finds he has disordered drinking/unhealthy relationship with alcohol when he is older. I agree that it is a poison, but I can understand why so many seek an escape from this broken world. We were hit by a drunk driver at highway speeds on Christmas night. He could not even stand when the cops made it to the scene an hour later. It was strange mix of anger at him for his decision making - he could have killed my wife and son - but I also had empathy, I understand the grip alcohol can have on a person. My car was totaled, my wife’s rotator cuff was torn, but I am privileged and have good insurance and the means to replace what was lost. If it had been one of our lives, that could not be replaced. Had we been in our truck that night and not my Subaru, we more than likely would not have survived that accident. I wanted to hug the man who hit us, he was wailing as they took him away in cuffs, pleading with us to help him. It was heartbreaking. I also wanted to slap him. Alcohol makes a hard life harder. It whispers promises of escape, distracting you as it slowly lowers you into a dark pit which you have to FIGHT LIKE HELL to claw your way out of.

I'd also like to see if they could break down the difference between tobacco smoke which contains more harmful chemicals to someone who only smoked cannabis, which has more tar, but none of the other harsh chemicals. No smoking is good for you but that would be a cool difference to see how they differ.

Alcohol is illusion of healing trauma and pain

I last drank alcohol on September 5th. I quit smoking in March 2023. Now, I work out 5-6 days a week. This has led to a massive shift in my physique, greatly improved my mental clarity, and significantly increased my energy levels. My liver enzymes have returned to normal. I’m already loving my healthier body and am looking forward to achieving a lean physique in the next six months. Quitting alcohol and smoking can transform your life. Live your best life with your loved ones.

My hangover remedy was to drink a bit less than I normally did, then smoke a bowl...you're still enjoying that party high but don't have as bad of a hangover. Then before I went to bed I'd drink a large glass of room temperature water, take two ibuprofen, and eat a sandwich. The thought process was that the ibuprofen would help with the potential hangover headache, the sandwich would absorb some of the alcohol and I'd just shit it out the next day, and the water would rehydrate me a bit while I was sleeping. This did actually work, but I'm sure that's not really how it works scientifically. Remember, I was a partying 16 year old guy when I came up with it, and it made sense to me at the time. My partying was like normal teens, and at 25 I quit drinking altogether and haven't had a drink since and I'm 56 now. Good luck to all!

As a drinker, I find this video, both disturbing and informative. People need to have unbiased information, and people like yourself provide it. Thank you.

I agree. Just show us the actual science of the effects of alcohol on our systems and I feel a little more worried, a little more disturbed. I'm 60 now and still like having a few on weekends but notice the fatigue is a lot greater then before and lasts longer. Drinking slower seems to do the trick for me as opposed to drinking 6 or 7 beers really fast only to realize I may have had 1 or 2 too many. Visualizing how the alcohol flows through the system for me gives me pause.

You should! And never give in to peer pressure! I never drank a lot (2-3 glasses of something light per year) but I stopped even that years ago and never missed it!

It'd be cool to see a video on organs affected by type 1 diabetes or hyperglycemia. For eg how gastroperesis manifests when autonomic muscles like pylorus stays pinched by borderline high blood sugar. Along the same vein, how OTC medications absorb in various parts of digestive / circulatory / nervous systems.

Drink water while you are drinking and some gatorade right after. Corpman gave me that advice after we arrived on a detachment in 29 Stumps. After we all imbibed to much the first night we arrived I drank a glass of water everytime I had to get up and go. I felt fine the next morning while others were whining about their headaches. However the easiest way to avoid a hangover is to not drink or at least do so in moderation. Some will never learn though.
