That's right, the best thing you can do is wait it out. You can do it standing or sitting if you want -- good luck with that -- but we have a feeling you'll wanna pull a George Michael on the nearest comfortable surface. There is no "cure" for hangovers[1] , and the only way to "prevent" one is to drink in moderation or not at all. Because you've clearly ignored those options, you'll likely have to tough this one out until your body metabolizes the alcohol you drank last night.


That said, there are a few things that help alleviate your hangover, like eating pretzels[2] , drinking some water or a Sprite[3] , or taking an ibuprofen or aspirin[4] . And the next time you plan on champagne toasting for four hours straight, follow these tips[5] or eat these foods[6] to help minimize the effects of your hangover before you get it.


Until then, hang in there. Your 2014 is definitely looking up from here.
