I know it makes me panic.
I know I have a day of hell the next day.
I even know it costs more than I can afford.
But I know I will do it again :doh:
I used to drink about 20 units a night without fail back in my underage drinking rebel days, now I will be lucky if I manage 2 a week.
Its my 21st birthday soon, my mum is putting a nice bbq on and of course I wouldnt mind washing it down with a few nice cold ones, Im human after all :) So I thought I would test the water (or alcohol lol) last night and see how I reacted. Im sharing this because Im sure someone else will react the same way and it might help, or it might me rambling junk lol. Anyway I had about 10 units (4 cans of cheapo beer) so its not a small amount but not a binge either.
Drinking the booze I am fine, do notice a slight increase in heart rate, but dont check it that much, usually too sozzled to care about panic lol. In the morning I will wake up with a racing heart, I clocked it this morning doing 144 as I woke up. I thought this was strange because I need to think about my heart to make it race usually, and I was asleep but hey ho. I got up and was sick with panic (or kebab) and told my self off for being silly and worrying about my heart.
I got back into bed and managed after a long time of my 'techniques' to get it down to 110bpm, but I couldnt get it lower than that no matter what I tried. Im no expert and perhaps somebody can answer this but is it a mix of alcohol and panic that was keeping it from going below 110?
I managed to get a few hours sleep and got up and finished the kebab (not the bit that ended up in the toilet of course) and had another attack, personally I think I ate too much but it made my heart slow, hard and irregular for a good hour.
Thats my hanxover mapped out anyway, I hope it helps some people who might go through the same thing. I did end up asking a few questions in there and will re ask them at the bottom to help people help me too :)
I woke up with my bpm at 144 and couldnt drop it below 110, is this just 100% anxiety or does the alcohol do it to me too.
I had a slow hard irregular heart beat, is that a worry, is it caused by booze or my morning kebab?
And also are hangovers deadly? sometimes it feels like it :roflmao:
