Hungover. If I close my eyes it makes it worse.

Alcohol affects all neuro- transmission... not the hormone itself. Drinking alcohol is like drinking gasoline, the brain considers it a toxin and the body focuses on ridding itself of that toxin. If the individual pauses drinking and the soberiety catches up all systems are normal again minus some water for cellular transport. I do not see how a hormone can be depleted by drinking alcohol.

Alhough a blood center will not ask, your blood will be thinner and you will be very light headed and may even pass out after giving blood. Although that does depend on the amount taken and how much you have to drink. Usually 8 hrs of sleep the night after drinking will erase most of your blood alchohol level.

NO! You tend to feel much better when you do anything after a few drinks. I was told by a personal trainer that if he drinks too much he runs home afterwards cause it avoids a hangover.

Yes, I do - friends took me out drinking. Ended up drinking way too much - 21 shots of random stuff. Got home, alternated between passing out and vomiting for 3 days. I really do not recommend this as a way of celebrating your 21st birthday. I think I was pretty lucky I was vomiting or I could have easily died of alcohol poisoning.

About 20 percent of alcohol is absorbed through stomach, and most of the rest is absorbed through the small intestine. Alcohol molecules are carried through the bloodstream and come into contact with the cells of virtually all the organs. When someone drinks on an empty stomach, the blood absorbs the alcohol rapidly. The body also absorbs higher concentrations of alcohol, such as mixed drinks or shots, very quickly.\n\nAfter drinking, people usually feel pleasure and become talkative at first. The feelings are usually replaced by drowsiness as the alcohol is eliminated from body, and the drinker may become withdrawn. This pattern often encourages people to drink more to keep the buzz going. \nImmediate medical attention is necessary if a person becomes unconscious, is impossible to arouse or seems to have trouble breathing. \nDrinking a high concentration of alcohol in a short period of time can suppress the centers of the brain that control breathing and cause a person to pass out or even die. \nWhen people pass out, their bodies continue to absorb alcohol. The amount of alcohol in the blood can reach dangerous levels, and they can die in their sleep. Continue to check on someone who has gone to sleep drunk. Do not leave that person alone. \nIt is dangerous to combine alcohol with other drugs, especially those that make you sleepy \nMost alcohol is metabolized in the liver and then excreted. When someone drinks more alcohol than their liver can handle efficiently, the additional alcohol accumulates in the blood and body tissues:-)

Be proactive. Don't drink so much, or drink more water while you are drinking alcohol. Then the hang over won't be as bad.

How much are you drinking alone?  If your drinking until your passing out each night, get some help right away.  It means you have a drinking problem.  Alcohol is a depressant so if your drinking because your depressed, then you're not helping yourself at all. Either way, please seek counseling asap.

All things in moderation.  Too much is anything that effects your normal functioning and responsibilities.  Any will effect the body. Some good effects, some bad.\n\nHere's a great source to answer this, without hitting copy paste with a long answer: \n\nhttp://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/alcohol.html

Women and males when drunk both of them become stubborn, stupid, incoherent, and the list can go on.\nBut there is a little difference: most males stay stubborn, stupid, incoherent,etc. in their sober state.
