When I was drinking every day, usually around 8 tall boys, I didn't get hangovers but I would feel like crap all the next day until I had my next drink. It just became the norm. It wasn't until I stopped that I realized just how lousy I was feeling all the time.
I started back up again after a few months but only once or twice a week...... Now I get hangovers.
But I'm trying hard to give it up again. I HATE being hungover!
