Drinking question???!
Answers: So I just turned 21 last month....I've drank before at home and whatnot in the past and been fine but drinking at bars is different because the drinks are so much stronger than I'd make them and I've felt sick and gotten a headache almost right away every time I've gone out. I'm only 110 pounds so that's part of why I can't handle much---I just want to know if anyone else had the same problem and has any ideas on how to prevent having a bad night every time I go out??? Or any drinks that would be good for me?
Being a guy (read someone the bar tender has little desire to see drunk) I have the opposite experience, drinks are too weak for my tastes... either way there is no reason why you can not ask the bar tender to make the drink weaker or go back and ask for "an extra splash" of juice/soda part way through your drink. It's not uncommon or something to be embarrassed about. You could also try some light beers and drink those slowly. Slow your pace down, ask for more ice, splashes of the mixers and/or start out asking for a weak drink. You can also ask for a glass of water when you get your drink and sip on that as well as your cocktail.

also, you could ask the bartender for a "tall" drink (will come in pint sized glass or similar) but with the instruction to make it like a "single". ie he'll only put one shot into the drink. this is probably your best bet.
take an Advil or an Excedrin
try not to drink as much or not at all
the "right drinks" for you are tomato juice and water.
but if you choose to "get wasted" like that, drink lots of water the whole day. it will help your body, keep you hydrated.
make sure you are on the pill. it sounds like a disaster is about to happen.
take care
Yes, I can't drink too much either.... sadly there does;nt seem to be a way to overcome it.....
I drink slowly and buy bottles of lager also I drink water in between drinks.... maybe try that ?
Stay safe :)
Drink milk before you go so that your stomach will have a coating, if you get stomach cramps or rashes stay away from alcohol as this is an allergy, stay away from acidic drinks(those which are mixed with juice)
